Just got back from sitting in a Camaro - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

For anyone in the Glendale, CA area, Allen Gwynn Chevrolet has a Camaro in there and they are letting you sit in it. I just got back from there and holy crap this car is amazing. It was a 1LT and it still blew me away. They currently have 206 orders in for the Camaro and three are coming next week. I asked they guy about the markup and he said that it depends on how well the car sells. He gave me the example of the Z06 having a markup for 2 and a half years, so it depends. So i got to sit in it for the first time and everything feels right. The steering wheel has special moldings to grip the wheel better, everything feels solid, and you can just feel the value in this car. The cloth interior isn't as bad as i thought it would be. I thought it would be hard to move in the seat with the cloth, like other cars but no. And you dont start getting hot in the cloth seat which is nice. Everything in the interior felt like it was solid, there was no loose pieces at all, and the car looked stunning. There was only one blind spot that i could find and it was the last post by the rear windshield. Another thing is that the car feels safe. Which is nice because im used to riding in my Cadillac Escalade ESV. So ya, super excited to get mine. And anyone around glendale, go check it out.

I'd find another dealer that would sell at MSRP and has some allocations still available. If this dealer has 206 orders, you'll never see yours if you're 207.

Thats BS!! I can buy a Z06 from my dealer at invoice if I wanted..they got at least 3 sitting there!

Ah yes, the infamous Allen Gwynn of Glendale.
I thought I heard some racing down Glendale ave. recently. With the slow economy they don't get to abuse...I mean...test cars as often as they used to.

Thanks for the tip, I'll walk over on Monday.
