Welcome to the site! Great story. Hope he didn't put down a big deposit. You had me going for a while, thinking "Dang, did I miss something?"

I agree with radz282003, don't point him to this site. We have enough hot heads here.

WELCOME!

It looks like you know how to "Search" and we appreciate that I think spending some more time will shed a little more light on your questions, but it sounds like we'll be getting a convertible in a year-or-two but Z28 is still on hiatus.

My dealer ordered me the yenko with the al427 motor. I though this was an informed site. Don't you guys know about the z28 and yenko package for the 2010. Come on guys get with it.

The Dodge dealer my dad got his Charger from still swears I paid $10k over sticker to get it so early. As does my mom's "friend" at work whos son "works for chevrolet" and told her they "had to" sell them over sticker as per GM.... but he could have "gotten me a deal" for $5k over.

And I showed both places my bill of sale, they still don't believe it.

This thread again

[Drago77]

I have a co-worker who's a huge Mustang fanatic (I know- that says it all right there!) And swears he knows everything about all cars. About a yr ago, he tried telling me Z28s were out and that he read "several" head-to-head comparisons in which the Mustang Cobras destroyed it. Most recently, he claimed his friend just ordered a.Transformer edition Camaro (roughly Sept of 2010) from a local dealer and got it "under MSRP for $80k"... he didn't appreciate it when I asked if, for that price, it actually transformed! But nonetheless insisted that was a great deal!

Moral of the story - some people are just idiots!

But back to the Z28, (yes it has relevance, just read on)


So, I am having an old truck restored at a local shop and stopped in randomly to check on the progress. When I got into the body shop, I was greeted by the foreman, one of the salesmen, and a gentleman I did not know. We all exchanged hellos, save for the guy I didnt know. (he was very quiet) The body shop foreman informed me that this particular man, in his late 50's I would guess, was the owner of a Z06 Vette which he had mentioned to me some days earlier at lunch. I looked at him and complimented his taste and mentioned something about the "7.0 litre dry sump being an impressive engine", to which he just kinda looked at me and said nothing. Preventing the uncomfortable pause from beginning, the new truck salesman quickly informed the older gentleman that I was the guy that had a "new Camaro on order", to which the up til then quiet man finally spoke, but not before sizing me up blatantly, "Ive got one on order too" he said. Then added, "But mine is a Z28 special package". I very friendly like said, "oh z28?, you mean the SS? right?" which he immediately became defensive and blasted back, "no, I said a special ordered Z28... I have it pre ordered at (insert local dealership)!" I then said... "ok... I'm pretty sure that there is no z28 model for the 2010 model year" he said back, "well there is, its on the internet", to which by this point I was losing my cool and decided that I wasnt gonna be one upped by this jerk so i fired back with "and they also have the Trans Am on the internet too, but we know where that is" to which he became irate and said, "dont you believe me??? I have it ORDERED" to which i responded with... "well, im sorry, but I will believe it when i see it" He then gritted down and said, "you dont tell me anything, I dont need to listen to you!" so as to cool the situation, and to preserve his very apparent fragile state of sanity i tried to lower the tension by moving on and asking... "well what color is yours that you ordered?" to which he quickly and angrily said back "well what does it matter, you say they dont exist! I dont have time to listen to you, Im getting out of here." then he started walking away pissed off, but not before he turned back and said, "and that mouth is gonna get you and ass whipping", to which I calmly and quickly replied "take a number".

I never knew that I could almost get in a fight over something so trivial...

So i was mad at this point and stormed back to the body shop office, the opposite way he went, and got on their internet and found the GM FAQ that plainly states that NO Z28 MODEL IS PLANNED yet basically. printed it off, but not before the salesman who escorted the pissed off guy out came back and handed me a sheet of paper that he had highlighted. What was highlighted was 2011 Z28. As i read more in depth, the article went into farther detail of this "rumored" z28, which i circled with a pen and handed it back... you should have seen the look on the salesman's face... only if the old guy would have been there too.

Pretty epic story for a first post new member huh?

Wow, that sure is. Truth is, Chevy dealerships know the car is in the works and is coming...that's it, nothing more. The idiot you unfortunately ran into was just talking out of his hat and knew even less. Good story though. Rock on bro..

[shawn18]

Some people! Dont you just love when people start talking about the new Camaro and its abundantly clear that they have no clue what they are talking about?

[zebra]

don't you just love when people bring back up pointless threads from almost a year & a half ago?
