Alright you 2010 Camaro fans!

With all the GM production barriers, I believe the "Out -The- Door" price for ownership will be steep for the SS.

The new Challenger looks to have an Out the door price of $44k. How many of you will still go for a Camaro SS if it's priced at $44k?

I'm afraid the pricing maybe that steep with all the involved manufacturing hurdles.

 

Ehh, I think your number is about $14K too high. In the event that the world turns upside down and you are right, I will make an effort to go to every Chevy dealer within 150 miles and urinate on every Camaro in the lot.

 

I assume that by SS you mean the top top model.. even though we dont know what that model will be called

anyway.. the top model Camaro i would assume would have over 500hp from a supercharged 6.2 and i wouldnt be surprised to see that car priced in line with the Mustange Shelby GT-500... the challenger, for its price and weight, is way way underpowered IMO..

so.. how much would a 550hp Camaro cost? id say very close to 40k out the door .. that would not surprise or upset me in the slightest...

now.. a camaro with the 430hp LS3 should definitely come in under 30k..

 

I think would be awesome if that were to happen, but I don't see it happening because 6 years ago, my loaded 2002 Camaro SS was almost $32k.

Here's a web copy of the window sticker...the only thing I altered was removing the dealership name:

No way is an SS (assuming it's the TOP model) going to be $30k. More like 37-38k.

 

Personally, I'd step up to a Corvette. There isn't a late-model Camaro on Earth that I would buy for $44K.

 

I suspect that the new CAFE rules are going to be hard on the Camaro in the future. If we do get a 550 hp car, I don't think it will last more than a few years before they have to cease production of it. So if you want a big V8 Camaro, you better be saving up your money now and don't blink, because they'll be gone far sooner than any of us want them to go.

 

key word there is LOADED.. and that was the top model of the day

i dont believe the LS3 car will be the top model, and i think the base price for the LS3 car should be under 30k

 

I hope not, sounds high. If that's the case I will buy used.

 

But all evidence is pointing to the SS not being the bop model. $38K is the absolute highest I can see the top dog going for. Anything beyond that and they are alienating the Camaro market and invading Vette territory.

 

i dont think your going to see any V8 for under 30k.

 

I think that might be dead on without really knowing what the motors are going to be and if the top dog will be supercharged or not. The Camaro and the Vette are two different things, always will be. But at $38K I would look at a very low mile used Z51 Vette though.

 

+ 1,000,000. And if the SS is more expensive than the COBRA Mustang (assuming the Z/28 will go against a Mustang GT) then you can kiss a few sales good-bye. Please do not compare an SS to a Shelby Mustang. Chevrolet will sell as many SS's as Ford sells Shelby's if they target that.

 

Well they they will lose sales to the Mustang GT and Challenger R/T. Period.

I would think it's hard to compare the prices of the 4th Gen's to the 2010 Camaro. My loaded 2002 Z28 t-top coupe was $28K (out the door $23.5 with 0% 60months, the good ol days)
The difference then was the LS1 was the Z and SS engine aka base V8. IF the LS3 becomes the base then I could see the price for the Camaro V8 staying in line with the Mustang GT's under $30k, coupe/convert.

As for the most expensive Camaro or top performer as we should say. That would probably follow GT500 and Challenger SRT prices. So whatever those are next year.
