I personally am a fan of the Heritage rims, but then, that's me.

I agree nice car and rims. Good luck.

Thanks guys. I'm looking forward to picking it up. Still waiting to hear back from the lender to see what day I need to arrive so I can plan my travel.

Only immediate mods will be a T3 vinyl stripe kit, and muffler delete.

Picked her up Saturday afternoon around 5 PM -- man that was an adventure.

Interestingly enough it was cheaper by about $120 to drive to my hometown (Fayetteville) and fly out of there with Charlotte as a connecting flight... Here's how it went down.

Saturday:
6:30 AM -- Hit the road from Charlotte to Fayetteville
9:00 AM -- Arrived in Fayetteville
10:20 AM -- Got to FAY airport
11:20 PM -- Landed back in CLT. Boarded second plane
1:25 PM -- Left CLT for Fort Lauderdale
4:00 PM -- Got picked up from FLL airport and headed to dealer
4:30 PM -- Did paperwork and ate the pizza they ordered me
5:00 PM -- Hit the road for NC -- Trip is approx 711 miles
Sunday:
1:00 AM -- Couldn't hold my eyes open anymore. Found a rest area to take a nap.
6:00 AM -- Arrived back in Fayetteville.

The car was swimming all over the road so I checked the tire pressure monitor and found that they were all 41-43 PSI each. Pulled over when it was time for gas, food, and RR. Bled them down to about 37 PSI warm, and yep... totally different car.





The driver side seat heater isn't working. The shift knob and boot are broken. One wheel has peeling paint. There's a ding on the passenger rear quarter panel. The stock exhaust rattles a little on take-off.

All in all an EXCELLENT buy for $15,700 with 60,000 miles!!

Congrats! It's an early 2010 with the GM chicklets.

Looks good, that is just minor stuff. I did a muffler delete last week. I like it so far.

[xEzekial]

Yeah it's a first run 2010, no backup sensors

Congrats on the car and the adventure! I found my car on eBay back in October but didn't buy through eBay since it was sold through a business. I drove down and bought it from the other side of Shelby. What a fun day!! I love my Camaro!

Got mine off EBay from Miami FL. Had it shipped here to Charlotte for $488. Was a lot cheaper to have it shipped for me. Congrats on the buy

It's the little square GM badge near the rear of the front tires.

It's the GM Performance badge.
My wife has those on her '07 Pontiac G6 SE1 (V6).

It was applied to the G6 when the V6 was ordered vs. the 4-banger and the Camaro with the V8 vs. V6. Most any GM vehicle with an upgraded power plant had them. All those vehicles also had upgraded transmissions, differential, cooling, suspension, brakes, tires, etc. to accompany the higher output engines.

When GM went though it's restructuring to keep it alive in 2010 the badges were deleted in the interest of saving some dollars.

You may also have a badge under the hood. Right side of the car.

IIRC GM started adding them again in 2014 when their loan was paid off.
