Will pass on the first year in hopes a Z/28 is offered in the second year. Might have to wait for the third year. If there is no Z/28 (officially killed) then I'll look into ordering a 2SS once word on the Z is final. Did the same thing with my Wife's Solstice. Passed on the first year after hearing about a GXP variant. Glad we waited.

I'll wait till the prices come down. Incentives and lower financing will be in the cards. Over $2500 off on my ordered '87 IROC and $6500 off on my on the lot '04 GTO and over $3000 on my '06 GTO plus 0% financing for 60 months.
Why would I order a Camaro on the dealer's terms?
Cars are a depreciating asset. I'm never going to be at their mercy.
But if I were really smart I'd buy used. LOL.
When I do get a Camaro I'm keeping the Goat.

Well, I DID sit in one at the Indy event, and although I did like it I still will have to drive a real one before I plunk down cash. I can definately buy pretty much anything I want car wise, but I will never buy a car sight unseen (or as in this case un-driven). If they confirm next year that the Z28 will be built, I'll definately wait to get one of those instead too.

+1.
My bank account has taken a real beating in the last few months, and raises that were supposed to be, disappeared off the map. My Camaro dreams are on hold indefinetly until the money turns around. Hopefully within the next 5 years or so, if the car is still around, I'll be able to get one.

I am waiting....
My friend has a new vette Z06....
To me the car looks good in the magazines...And good in person
But its too low to the ground and very scary when you press on the gas...
So its best for me to wait and see how I feel in one......

The first year of a new generation/style of camaro have always been the worst. All the bugs need to get worked out and feedback will be sent back to GM. I'll wait until the 2nd or 3rd year to get the upgrades and when costs come down.

I really have my mind set on a Z/28. I love the 69 Z and I have a second gen Z and have had 3rd gen Z28 cars. I know its just a name but its the name I would like on my car. That and the price of everything (consumer goods) is driving me to pay off my current Daily driver before I buy a summer only car. My propane bill alone went from $170 last year to $300 this year. It sucks hard, I have been wanting to by a new Camaro for 10 years and now that I can buy one, everything else has gone to hell. I just hope by me waiting a year or 2 the car will be even better than it is at launch.

I'm planning on getting a 2010 Camaro, but i'm not ordering. I want to sit in one, take one for a ride, before I buy. Anyone like me and not ordering?
Ive been tempted, but I can't order without seeing one in person. If I ordered one it would be:
2SS
Victory Red
Black Leather
Automatic
I've seen a picture of a Red SS and it just doesnt look right. Right now im leaning towards 2LT RS Victory Red, Black Leather, Automatic. But i wont know until i can see a SS in person. I just think the non-functional air induction hole looks weird on the Red. I'm really hoping for a Z28, the V6 styling, with a V8 under the hood. Ive been hoping for that all along. When they announced the V6 & the SS i was a little disappointed.

well Im thinking used. Ideally though I would like to move up within my company and buy new. Either way it will be some variation of LS3 V8 or not at all. I have no interest in the V6. This crisis hasnt affected me yet as much as others in terms of 401k. Ive pulled my 401k money to preservatoin funds when the DOW peaked. mostly anyway, I have lost 4,000 wich isnt much considering. My concern is job security and wondering if there is still room for advancement at my company like Im hoping for.
