wow what a great wife you have! I am crying just reading your story. I have yet to get a Camaro yet but am here everyday checking things out. I could only dream that my wife would do the same for me.
Congradulations!

depends on the options...I would say the average is 60-63 after options, ggtax and sales tax.

Wondering if that hood fits a 2010. I know that the ZL1 hood has some cowling that drops into the engine bay pretty far and the radiator seems to be dropped to make room for the air induction. I would hate to have to cut it up.

rmeyers - what a GREAT story! (and what a great wife and son!)

CamaroCam - I think your pics are the best shots of the ZL1 that I've seen on the site - great stuff!


JANET!!!! I am going to assume that that "gray thing" in the driveway is the ZL1's "dinner" --


To all of you - -CONGRATS on your new ZL1s -- thank you for your patience and I'm hoping you believe that the wait was worth it.

On behalf of everyone at GM - we hope these are the best cars you've ever owned!

Oooops! thought you might see that. It is NOT registered to us

Only GM registered to us, nothing else is my responsibility.

i love this new ZL1, im very tempted to trade my 10ss in for this. But id be ticked off if in 13 they comeout with a more powerful or a new color thats hot. Cant believe they dont offer a blue. Horrible. Bring back that royal blue or whatever it was called. Imperial was nice also. I wont lie I love grabber blue on stangs. Just think gm needs to offer a blue.

In 2009, I surprised my wife with a 2012 SS/RS. I kept the secret for about 2 months and gave it to her on our 27th wedding anniversary.

This past saturday, 4/7/2012 she convinced me that we needed to go the Chevrolet dealer to look at the new Camaro and that we should maybe trade hers in. I was emphatic about telling her there were no "new" camaro's in the DFW area. The ZL1's had been delayed and were only now getting released. Thinking if a dealer did have one, surely it was allocated/sold and there was no chance I could do anything but look from the outside. But hey I was having a good day so I went along with her plan as she assured me that my son told her he saw one there. Thats when I started to get suspicious.

Upon arriving, my son is there with the sales person we normally deal with. He goes into a song and dance about how its the general managers car, and what would it take to convince him to part with it....yada yada yada....

After admiring the car a little longer, my son walks up to me and says....congratulations on your new ZL1 and hands me the keys....Apparently 8-9 months ago they conspired to surprise me with my dream car.

Btw...we still have her 2010, I let go of my 08 Z06 to make room for this beauty...
