Seriously it takes 7-9 days to get to KC Kansas from Ontario, Canada?
I could have gone on vacation, picked it up and driven to California and back again in this amount of time. And this while actually enjoying the trip and stopping at all the cool sights along the way.

Are you sure it actually shipped on the day you think it did?
May be in Quality control.. sometimes it sits there for 2days then gets shipped.

Also depending on the amount of cars being shipped it may have not been able to fit on the train and was put on a 2nd one...
Took mine about 6-7 days to ship into Kansas then 2 days before it arrived at the dealer.

Yep, positive, tracked it on the train until it got to the transfer station just NE of STL Monday morning at 4:36 AM, where it was placed on a truck transport (or switched to Union Pacific Railroad), where I promptly lost track of it.

It shipped on 22 Sep 09 from Oshawa, ONT, Canada.

I would like to get together with other Camaro owners, sounds like fun. Only problem is we just went to 12 hr days 7 days a week till mid November.
When that's over i'm probably going home to Oregon for a while. Maybe via Louisiana to see friends. Probably have to wait till next spring for any get togethers.

Check out some of the other area groups too, maybe you'll be in one of those places when they have a get-together!

Yesterday was a good day to go driving for me. I took my IOM Camaro out to Overland Park to pick up a friend to go to the KSU game at Arrowhead. I was heading down I-435 and a yellow Monte Carlo slows down ahead of me and I notice a camera really close to the window. I started laughing then I had to slow down due to a very slow moving van. About 5 minutes later I am in the far left lane and pull up next to the same Monte Carlo and see a camera near the driver side window this time. So I pull up then look over and give a thumbs up and smiled. It turns out that two girls were in the Monte Carlo. They then went on to exit and I waved goodbye and they laughed and waved back. I think I made their day.

Then once I was in Overland Park I ended up in a turning lane and didn't want to be a jerk and cut into normal traffic when the light went green so I turned down College (road/street) then did a U-turn near JCCC and saw a silver Camaro with black stripes. I rolled down my window and waved and he returned the gesture.

Finally, when we were on our way to the game I spotted a Ferrari F430, silver. Then less than one minute later he comes ripping up the right lane and took the next right and then floored it again.

To top it off KSU won in the last 30 seconds with a blocked extra point!
