New Orleans Auto Show - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

VJCamaro · 03-20-2009, 08:58 AM

Hello Camaro5 members. This weekend there is an auto show in New Orleans that will have a 2010 Camaro. I have ordered a 2SS, and have yet to see one in person. Call me crazy for ordering something I haven't seen in person, but so be it, there will be crazy man behind the wheel of a 2010.
I will be bringing my camera, and will take plenty of pictures, to share with you all. I don't think they are going to allow us to get inside the car, but I have my fingers crossed. I'm taking requests from y'all, if you would like a special shot, that you haven't seen, or want to see more of. I will be going sometime Saturday evening, so you will have to wait till later that night to see them. This is my chance to contribute big to all of you who have helped me over the past months, and I very much appreciate all of it.

What venue is the show at? My brother lives in NO and wants to see a Camaro in person before he orders one.

Thanks,

Ron

VJCamaro · 03-20-2009, 09:31 AM

It's at the Morial Convention Center. Yeah I can't wait to see it in person, everyone says pictures just don't do the car justice. I hoping there's a black one there.

I also pre-ordered one back on Jan 13 even though I haven't seen one in person. And there's an upcoming auto-show here in Vancouver in 2 weeks and i'm hoping they'll show the Camaro.

MacMulkin · 03-20-2009, 11:01 AM

Thanks, I will let my brother know the location!

I'm the same way 2SS/RS never saw it in person yet but I'll be there tomorrow between 10:00 and 2:00 to finally check it out

o2camaross · 03-20-2009, 05:56 PM

damn man, im in ruston right now bc i go to louisiana tech but i live in slidell. i wish i was home this weekend id meet up with you and we could both go.

CamaroChelline · 03-21-2009, 03:39 PM

I'm headed to New Orleans as we speak to check out this beauty. I had no reservations buying a car I'd never seen but now I'm dying to see one in person.
So I'll be the little blonde drooling on the floor as close to the car as they'll let me get. I'll post pictures when I get back..

Aqua Blue Metallic 2SS/RS w/ black rally stripes, sunroof and catback exhaust. Ordered January 09. Accepted for production March 09. It's getting close!!!!

fcu678 · 03-21-2009, 07:09 PM

It had the largest crowd of all cars. It's a 2SS/RS in SIM with CGM stipes IOM interior. Its a CTF car had the non saleable tag on the door. They let everyone get in as you pleased the interior fit of the door panels was spot on so maybe Rick Hendrick's car needs adjustment. It's everything I expected and more you couldn't beat the smile off of my face.

Mine just can't come quick enough.

Unless I'm mistaken (as well as the Chevy guy there with the car) the car was only an SS...not SS/ RS..but it was beautiful! I have pics and will upload them when I get home..the best part was getting to sit in it! The seats are amazing.
Pics to come...

VJCamaro · 03-21-2009, 09:25 PM

From the first moment I walked into the Convention Center, my mouth hit the floor and was aww struck from the beginning. Pictures do not do this car justice at all. From pictures I have seen on this site, the car looks sorta small, but in fact it really isn't. Which I'm very happy about. Pictures are deceiving.
I am assuming this is a car that most of y'all have seen already, probably at the auto shows in your location. Which means I probably sat in all of y'alls drool.

I can't wait till I take delivery! I was able to take some pictures, so enjoy.
Before you ask, according to the Oriental woman, with a mouth full of medal, working at the Camaro station, "the guy who parked the car in the center, pulled the fuse on the ABL, so it was not working."

CamaroChelline · 03-21-2009, 11:16 PM

I hope this repeat isnt a bore..but I have a few photos as well...I can't describe to you how freaking nice this car actually is. It was well worth the 5 hours round trip drive to see it.

Enjoy!

jstein · 03-22-2009, 01:34 AM

look at those seats! what a shame all the wrinkles already... Thanks for all the pics though!!!
