Finallly home!!!
1049 has finally made it home. OMG!!!! This car is way beyond anything I could have ever imagined. It actually arrived at the dealer yesterday evening and I picked her up today. The Red Jewel with white Rallies really pops and looks amazing. Polished rims really look great on this color as well.
Scott Settlemire and team at GM you are truly my heroes.
This car is a dream come true for me and it is much more than I could have ever imagined. This Camaro is the very first custom built, made to order new Camaro I have ever owned. I have owned 6 total in my life, including this one. This is truly the very best car I have ever had the priviledge of owning or driving. GM, and the hard driving members of that corporation that made this a reality have truly done an amazing thing and created a masterpiece of an automobile. I am proud to be an owner of this car and you are all truly great people to make it happen.
I have pics, just have not been able to get them up yet. Working on it!
I am a very happy Camaro owner today and I must tell you, It was definitely worth the wait. Specifics below:
Ordered 10/13/08
1100: 12/03/08 Prelim Accepted
2000: 02/11/09 Accepted by GM
2500: 2/11/09 Preferenced
3000: 2/11/09 Accepted by Production Control
3300: 3/05/09 Scheduled for production
3400: 3/07/09 Broadcast
3800: 3/24/09 Produced
4104: 3/24/09 Bailment invoice
4106: 5/28/09 Release Bailment (65 days in Area 51)
4200: 6/15/09 Shipped
4800: 6/22/09 Rail Ramp Unload
5000: 6/23/09 Delivered to Dealer
6000: 6/24/09 Delivered to Customer
92 Days from produced to delivery, 65 days in area 51
It was a very long wait, but I kept the faith and now she is home.
Wait, what wait?
Now to break in my baby. If you will excuse me!

Congratulations. I feel your excitement. It's a credit to you for managing to type your post instead of spending more time in it! 
Unfortunately for me, until GM decide to ship it to Australia, it will remain my dream. I hope and pray, one day...
Enjoy its many virtues!
