MOTL3Y

I first saw the concept Camaro at the Atlanta Auto Show, 2006. The announcement of the Camaro proceeding to production was shortly thereafter announced. I had been checking the Chevrolet web site for information, when in 2008 I noticed a few links to 5th generation Camaro dedicated web sites. One of the sites, of course, was Camaro5.com. Camaro5 seemed the most interesting and had the most subscribers, so in 2009, I finally subscribed. I learned a lot from the site and got excited when I was reading about people receiving their cars. (Area 51 people have quite the story) In March of 2009 I walked into my 2nd Chevy dealership. I had no plans to do anything, other than get an idea of the sales people. After a long conversation with a salesperson, and he telling me about the Camaro he ordered for himself, which he actually did, I ended up ordering from him and got in his line of allotment. I waited 6 months. Could have been less elsewhere, but I was comfortable with this guy.
I ordered; black 2SS/RS with polished rims, white rally stripe package and painted to match, dealer installed ground effects.
I asked the salesperson, that if he could, give me a call when the car showed up. He did, and I was able to take a few photos of the car on the delivery truck, being unloaded.
