What models of Camaros do your local dealers stock?

I'm looking at getting a 1SS soon but the inventory of Camaros at local Seattle dealerships really sucks. If I wanted a automatic I would have no issue and the few manuals they have are optioned up to over $40k. I am really trying to get one with split spoke wheels as the only option in hyper blue and don't want to settle for what I don't want if I'm paying for a new car. The NPP exhaust is nice but I just don't want to pay for the high price of an aftermarket NPP exhaust when I do upgrade it. Anyone else have the same issues with lack of dealer inventory in their area?

Try Dave Smith in Kellogg, ID. Huge dealership and great prices. Last time I looked they had 11 Camaros and 20 Corvettes on the lot. It's a crazy place, 3500 cars on the lot at any given time.

Even if they have to order, their delivery time is reasonable. The S.O. just ordered a 2017 Cadillac last month and just got a notice that her SUV will be here next week.

If you don't want to do the drive (about 5 hrs), fly into Spokane ($100) and they will pick you up at the airport.

I strolled around the Chevy store next to the dealer where I was getting the wife's car serviced. One V8 Camaro (A loaded 2SS A8), one 2LT A8, and about 25 identical-other-than-color 1LT A8s. Zero manual cars. Corvette inventory was similar. One manual Z06, two auto Z06s, a crapload of auto Stingrays. Not sure what San Antonio has against stickshifts, but they seem to be somewhat rare down here.

If they make emergency braking a requirement in 2018-19 manuals will be a thing of the past!!!

Optioned up to over $40k? Base price with destination is only about $2500 below that. If they don't have what you want, just order a '17, you can order one now...

Good luck. I'm in Oregon and have found that the vast majority of cars in the Pacific NW are either LT's, or 2SS, and most are automatics. If you don't mind heading down to Vancouver Alan Webb has a blue (white stripes) 2SS M6 for $42,999. It doesn't have the wheels you're looking for though.

Ugh, never considered this possibility. That would be sad indeed.

Automatics...almost every car on the lots are automatics out here. But if you want an auto they have a pretty diverse selection.

2SS or 2LT automatics. I am interested in a 1SS, and there was only one within 50 miles. I live in Saint Louis, where there are plenty of dealerships to choose from in 50 miles.

Good Chevrolet in Renton seems to have the best selection locally, but they have no 1SS' with a manual.

What's the deal with Hyper Blue anyways? I love the color and every ad shows the Camaro in Hyper Blue, but it never seems like it's available at the dealer. Is it just popular so it is sold immediately?
