I finally saw it in person

Ok guys I finally saw what everyone has been talking about and all I can say is. A black and and also a yellow Camaro SS are here at the dealership. Here is a couple of pictures my wife took of me and my further camaro I will be getting a Sixxer. All I have to say about this car is this is the best car GM has ever built did not no why they ever stop making it. But I am gald it's back so enjoy.

I just went for a ride in the back seat of a 2LT. It was NICE! The interior really is pretty nice, you just have to see it in person, and it took potholes like we were driving on a sheet of glass. It was beautiful.

Oh, and the backseat wasn't uncomfortable at all. I'm 6' and I was fine.

Not that I'm worried about the backseat at all, passenger space is NOT the reason I am buying this thing

Eh, I'd say about halfway, probably less. The woman driving was about 5'7 or so. Even when she put the seat MOST of the way back I was fine, and I wouldn't have had the seat that far back in the driver's seat.

I have been lurking around this site for almost two years, reading threads looking at tons of photos. Today when I saw my first in person, SS IOM Camaro with White Rally stripes, I was in awe...What a beautiful car. Photos do not begin to express its feeling of WOW. I have an 09 Cyber Gray Z06, but that Camaro SS got me going. I am going to order one shortly to keep my Z company. Way to go GM, get your house in order and keep building awesome cars.

I uploaded the few pictures I managed to snap in the time between getting out of my car and being incapacitated by the awesomeness of this car.

Those are full res, so they'll take forever to load. The car was a 1LT with the RS package (Victory Red).

Thumbs up Finally saw one in person. About Dam Time!

I finally saw it today. It is absolutly a stunning ride to view. If GM is around in less then a year from now, I am definately getting one. It's bigger in person then I thought it would be. It was victory red and parking the Vette next to it gave me a vision of what my garage will look like. Sold GM!! Just need the dealers to get off the over sticker hype and I will drop my wad. They wanted 5k over MSRP for a RS. Nope, not me, I can wait patiently for my 2ss! Good job Gm u will get more of my money soon!

You should shoot CamaroScotty a PM. I'm pretty sure he's organized some purchases for other members and had the cars delivered by other dealerships, at MSRP.
