so from what im getting from this is, we are gonna get everything in the picture for under 30k? Ground FX, Spoiler, Rims, Stripes and a limited edition color? Or are they going to be options just like any other camaro just a different color?

thejoker1232 · 12-03-2009, 05:20 PM

hmm seems like it's my fate to get iom
first decision was iom vs aqua blue they took aqua blue away
then it was synergy vs iom then synergy is on 1lt.... WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just when i thought i was starting to like green chevy goes and does this.. grr
i guess iom and black stripes ftw

So they canceled ABM for this green? Unbelieveable. I think they are just trying this at the wall to see if it will stick.

Um, don't count on it.

Base 1LT = $23880
C&C Package = $760
GFX = $2265
21" Wheels = $4865
Stripes = $470

TOTAL = $32,240 plus the cost of the not-available spoiler and any "special" edition upgrade for the green interior items.

2010Camaro2LTRS · 12-03-2009, 05:25 PM

ya i didnt think so, thats good anyways that spoiler is ugly!

*The_Blur* · 12-03-2009, 05:28 PM

I'm very unhappy with this decision.

No wonder Fritz resigned.

This is one of the dumbest moves by GM at this point in time. Enthusiasts who want SS's would be the ones interested in Synergy Green. They are going to lose a lot of sales because of this..

Rookie13 · 12-03-2009, 05:38 PM

OK sorry I didn't read everyone's posts - but this is crazy!

1. V6 sales push = to impress GovernMent
2. Green = to impress younger market
3. High-Spoiler = to impress ricers
4. Non-RS = to impress production costs and decrease time

I don't get it! - then again I'm not a market analyzer. They are obviously trying to find more customers. It's a shame tho...

I was one of the more squeaky wheels that helped "fix" this error. I will be happy to offer my services to get it done if you guys think it's a good idea.

nester7929 · 12-03-2009, 05:47 PM

Okay, I can understand why they are trying to boost V6 sales, but...no RS? Why would GM take away the potential to make more money for no reason? A stupid business move if I've ever seen one.

The people that like green but want an SS aren't going to buy an LT just so they can have green. GM really should offer this at all trims.

Yeah, but now that the environazis have been exposed as frauds (their leaked emails) by both real media outlets AND the daily show, being "green" is "out". Look for more people to distance themselves from "green" technologies.

I think it would be cool to buy that car and send it to Callaway for a TVS 1900. I would guess you could still make 450hp.

The lack of leather is a bummer.

redsap05 · 12-03-2009, 06:12 PM

Look if they want to make more v6 sales they need a turbo option for the v6. That would sell more v6's. But limiting the green to v6 is a epic fail. Heres another thing maybe they need to make more v8 cars since the demand is so great for them. A turbo v6 would be cool but it still not a v8, it doesnt sound like v8 that american muscle sound, you cant put a cam and listen to it rumble, just not the same.
