Can't find anywhere that it says what options/color/anything else that the camaro has. It says that "the actual vehicle may differ from those shown in advertisements.", and it shows a silver LT/RS, a silver SS/RS, and a silver SS/RS with the red SS badge on the opposite side it's normally on(mirror imaged I guess.) It does say that "Approximate Retail Value ("ARV"): $35,000.00", and "Registration, title, licensing fees, taxes (including, but not limited to, sales taxes and income taxes), insurance and costs associated with the vehicle, including any travel and transportation costs associated with collecting the vehicle, if applicable, are solely the responsibility of the winner"
From this i would assume it is either a 2SS, with either the RS package or an automatic transmission, making the MSRP 35975, or a 1SS with both automatic, RS package, making MSRP 33790, and maybe the sunroof added in, making it 34690.
Sorry for the long post, it just kinda bugs me that they don't really give any details of what the prize really is. Definitely a cool promotion though.

Unfortunately, nothing is really free.
I sort of had this situation not long ago.
Anything you win is considered income. Approximate Retail Value is $35,000.00. When you take delivery, you would have to pay 25% of this value ($8750) to the IRS as it will be considered income. Then you have to pay state taxes as well, plus all that other junk
If you have, or can get the money, then its still a nice deal for a brand new car.
