Talking My 2010 Camaro should be in today!!!

The wait will finally be over! My 2010 Camaro SS should be in today. I honestly had trouble sleeping last night thinking about taking delivery of this car. It's been such a loooong time coming, but worth every second of the wait.

I'll be sure to capture the entire process completely with the help of Jason! I'm planning on sending up pictures from my iPhone to my Flickr page at http://www.flickr.com/photos/chrisfrez.

Well, doesn't sound like i'll be getting it today either. I've waited this long, I guess waiting a little longer isn't going to kill me. Received an e-mail from my salesperson this morning, jtrott -

I found out why your car isn’t here. They sent it out to the up fitter
for the stripes. They are done in a different plant. It was put on a
railcar today. So we still have a little while.

They're done at a facility ~5 minutes down the road.

What colour scheme is your car supposed to be, Chris? I saw a virtual "twin" to my car yesterday ... black w/graphite stripes ... looked AMAZING!!! I also saw a black w/white stripes car very quickly going the other way ... I definitely prefer the graphite stripes .

I've also seen the IOM w/white stripes in person, and love it too (it looks strikingly similar to my Dad's '73 Camaro ).

Well, that's EXACTLY what I saw going the opposite direction yesterday! Dude, it looked amazing . I'm actually picking my '02 up today from being repainted, and instead of the light silver vinyl stripes I've had on the car for ~6 years, I had them painted a deeper silver ... and they truly look very similar to the Cyber Grey stripes of the new Camaro .

Sweet! Maybe that was my car then. Shouldn't take long to get to Detroit - it's only a 4-5 hour drive.

If you don't mind having ~300 miles on the odometer, I could drive it down there for you to make sure it's well "taken care of" on its journey . You never know how those crazy car hauler guys will treat them!!! I would make sure the motor never goes below above 3000 RPM and that speeds stay above below 60 mph .

... and don't mind the sticky seat ... someone on the line must have, um, "sneezed" on it!

I saw three carrier loads on I-94 today while driving to Port Huron. Shouldn't be long.
