Re: RS, would you put hard earned money down if it was an appearance package
I'd like to see an RS appearance package if it was kept relatively simple. If it's got different ground effects and some sort of silly spoiler, then I'd pass, but if it had the hideaway headlights and perhaps some other subtle differences, I could definately see myself doing an RS/Z28 or RS/SS package.

I want an RS/SS, with SS on the center of a revised (read: better) grille.

The only "appearance" package I could see myself spending extra for would be one that incorporated hideaway headlights. Personally, I think they look GREAT and wouldn't think twice about shelling out the extra cash for them.
..........and I'm the type of person who doesn't even like spending the extra money on cruise control when I order a car!!

What if it was outsourced? Like SLP or something. Where the headlamp covers are 3 rows of LEDs (maybe for daytime running "lamps"), and you can flip the covers open for the stock lamp. THAT would be AWESOME to me!!

My Camaro will have the most powerful engine, a manual transmission and any every option. Be it an RS Hideaway headlights and SS trime. Hence a RS/SS Camaro for me.
I am #1 on the list at my dealer so when the flag drops I am sure I will get a call from the GM so they can sit down with me to discuss options and what their cars (Camaro wise) should be equipped.(I used to be the inventory/sales/ordering guy there.)
I am looking forward to seeing what the production Interior looks like..
Then of course you have the Challenger just waiting to be launched..going to get exciting.....REALLY exciting..

The Way i see it, if RS were an option it would be like stated before something to spice up only the looks of the v-6. My wife owns a 99 firebird with the "appearance package" and it cost her new what a lower end Trans Am would have. Dont get me wrong its a beautiful car its pewter and has a black single strip kit with firebird emblem on hood, but most people see it dont know better and assume its a trans am. Then Like last night when i cant pull on a nissan sentra, I wonder "Why not use that extra money on a V-8" And commenting to an earlier post about (pre 25 year olds driving v-6's) Im 23 and once i got a job, ive always been able to afford ins. on a V-8!
