Is there anything about your car you wish you had ordered differently? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

For those of you who have picked up your car and have it, or those who have ordered and are at 3000 and cannot change your order, is there anything you regret you ordered or did not order?

Do you wish you went with the V8 instead of V6 or vice versa? Do you wish you had/hadn't ordered the sunroof? Interior or exterior color?

I'm pretty happy with my order. However, I'm starting to wish I ordered the gray two-tone interior with the ABM, and maybe ditched the sunroof. After seeing pics of the RJT in Spyshots forum with no sunroof, that roof looks awesome. But then again, who really pays attention to the roof lol.

I GOT A BLACK 2LT/RS .. I WISH I GOT IT IN STIK

Maybe the manual, I went with Auto. because I've only driven a manual once; a mustang (I know, I know, it was a long time ago) and I'm not too good at it.
So instead of hurting my new baby, I decided against it.

Also, maybe ground effects, but I can add that later.

I have been back and forth on what I want to order. Everytime I see a new color I wanna have it! lol But, to the point. I know what I want as far as options. I just need to figure int/ext color

PQ · 08-06-2009, 02:34 PM

Maybe would change to the manual tranny, but as far as all other options, NO WAY. i love this frekin' thing.

I actually would have wanted to get the 2SS instead of the 1SS but with money being tight these days, 1SS it is!

U MEAN LS3 ?? OR L99? WHAT THE HELL IS LS9?

JustAGuy · 08-06-2009, 03:14 PM

Ya, I messed up when I ordered. I wanted the options of the RS package but thought the SS badge would be replaced by one that said RS. Had I done a little more research here, I'd have figured out they just changed the SS to red.

Other than that, I couldn't be happier - love the car.

Knock of the caps and do some research. LS9 is the engine from the ZR-1 vette.

No, I ordered/received the LS3. The LS9 is the Corvette ZR1 engine, and costs somwhere around $20,000 to order from GM.
Yes, I know you cannot order the Camaro w/ the LS9......

EarliestMemory · 08-06-2009, 03:21 PM

Stripes. I would have held off and gotten aftermarket ones. By the time I found out the black ones were matte, it was too late to get them off the order and I coudn't see not getting them installed since I'd already paid for it. As it turns out, they look a lot better than I originally thought they would.

PonyMan · 08-06-2009, 03:31 PM

Could have left the "Polished Rims" off, not worth the additional $500!!! Now if GM offered "Chrome", now you’re taken!!!
