Camaros in So Cal Dealship Showrooms? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Well I drove all the way up to the LA auto show back in December(?) and I thought I was going to be able to sit in a Camaro. I was sadly disappointed (although it had a crowd around it that rivaled the Ferrari exhibit!!!)

Does anyone in So Cal know of any dealerships in Southern California (from San Diego to Los Angeles) that has a Camaro in the showroom that will let me sit in the car. I have finally finished up swapping out my tired LS1 (in my 1998 Z28) for a GM Replacement and don't mind putting a few miles on it to break it in.

Nope. I've been keeping an eye out but no news.
Talked to the Bakersfield dealer and they won't have their showroom car untill late April.

Yeah, haven't heard anything myself. And I got moles in a few areas checking for me. I to was totally bumed when I couldn't sit in the camaro in LA.

My dealer in Orange said that they would call me when they got their first car in, so that I could actually look at one in person.

Well, keep this thread updated.

When I see some of the Camaro5 members sitting in the cars, I wish I could sit in one myself.

Nothing in So.CaL .......Crazy....But for those members in So Cal that want a good dealership I swear by Scott Sr. at Paradise Chevrolet.(1-805-642-0111) This is not an ad. I Just have not had any of the problems that many members have Had. He is one of the good ones.

gunslinger · 03-27-2009, 09:45 PM

gunslinger · 04-07-2009, 12:20 PM

I'm waiting for Foothill Ranch Chevy to get the black 1SS/RS that I ordered but canceled because they would not give me MSRP. According to the tracking thread the car has a VIN.

MRK III Z28 · 04-09-2009, 10:34 PM

Well according to the tracking thread there is one close to me in Costa Mesa, i go check it out tm if i can.

UCI CamaroFan · 04-10-2009, 10:48 AM

Yeah? Do you know which dealership in costa mesa? I don't know where that dealer tracking thread is...

Iwantone2 · 04-10-2009, 02:39 PM

There is Connell Chevrolet in Costa Mesa (this is where I ordered from)

barfman · 04-14-2009, 12:33 PM
