Thanks, will do! Though my dealer has been my families dealer since 1989 for 10 vehicles and they have never done us wrong, I will be sure to have peace of mind

I went to my dealer last night and they shared some info with me they got. I have the first Camaro comming in at my dealership. Inferno Orange SS/RS with optional Inferno orange seat accents. White stripes and 6-speed of course! Feels good to know the Camaro is finally comming. Jeff

Awesome - I am ordering mine specifically with the options I am picking, just cause I don't want to be missing something I want, and they are sending it out with their first order for the cars. So mine will be one of the first on the lot

I hope you guys are paying MSRP or below.

Ditto...

Did they give you a set price? Did they say, "MSRP?"

I just don't understand signing a contract on something I don't know the price of. (Or even ORDERING).

Make sure you get IN WRITING that the deposit is refundable. You never know what might happen until then to make you change your mind (not about buying one, but rather when and where )

I have bought a number of cars and trucks from my dealer. I have also had friends buy Vett's from my dealer. Payback time is now.

I took care of everything, have my deposit in - contract states it is refundable and I also had them put in that it will be MSRP or below - which my dealer does not believe in price gouging but my sales rep said he understands why I am concerned after the Mustangs. So it is refundable, it will be at MSRP or below, and it will be exactly the way I want

PS - they don't know the actual price so I could not get a set price - just a confirmation that it will be MSRP or below and not more. He said he also believed my GMS discount was applicable too but could not give me a definite as Chevy may say no-go to the GMS for a short while when they are first released. Either way, I am willing to pay up to $40k on a fully loaded SS so the price doesn't concern me at this point

Congrats! Now, when you say $40K...and fully loaded...does that include a sunroof and NAV?

Did you order it yet? Or are you just "in line" to order? I'm only asking because you have a contract for a fully loaded SS and you don't want to spend more than $40K...what if what you ordered is more than $40K?

A fully loaded SS with all of the bells and whistles will PROBABLY be a tad more than $40K (This is including EVERY option).

He's probably just saying that he's willing to pay up to that amount when the prices become available and you can order.

As of now, they aren't taking orders.

Yeaaaa, maybe you will all be paying 40k. Make sure that is refundable.

40k for a loaded SS is out of the question, I could understand it for a supercharged maybe Z28, but besides that you are walking in vette territory..

MAYBE if you go hog wild at the GMPP acessory store, and I mean WILD, will you be able to go over $40k. Otherwise I am with Brantley847, you will likely be able to get a new 2008 Vette (stripped, admittedly, but how bad can a stripper Vette be?) for a few bucks more than $40k.

There was a dealer a while back on one of the Vette boards in CA who had like 30-40 on the lot and was selling them for GM Employee price plus $400. That essentially what GM pays to the dealer for selling a car at employee pricing. You wouldn't have as many bells and whistles, but you would have a few more or the same HP in a car that is much lighter, but I do not doubt that some folks will end up spending more on their Camaros. Not a problem either way, do what makes you happy, but just look at the big picture when the time comes and make the best decision for YOU....
