I'm hoping they take orders early enough that you can pick up your Camaro within a week or two of their official release (assuming that release is January '09).

I just assume get mine in the spring...the thought of driving my brand new 5th gen home in january on the pristine NY winter roads kind of makes me sick.

So, theoretically, assuming orders are taken early enough by the dealer, you can have yours as soon as they hit the lots. I ordered a few GMC Acadia's for customers that actually came in before we got any stock units for the lot.

Hope that makes you feel a little better.
Yeah, knowing it's more like 2 months instead of 3 or 4 makes it a bit better.

Do we (CamaroZ28.com in general) have a thread started to list dealers that have stated they will not mark the Camaro up over MSRP when it's released? I know Camaro5.com does, but thought it may be a good idea here as well.

Thus far I've only heard back from one local dealer stating they limit pricing on 'hot' cars to MSRP. And while many don't think we should be putting down a deposit, they are accepting $500 (totally refundable) deposits to insure being able to be one of the first to special order your Camaro. They said they had a small list, so I may end up adding my name for only $500.

I would be that idiot. And yes, I have had a thousand down on the car for months. I contacted Chuck at Maroone chevy who has worked there over a decade and sold me my 94, my 95, my 02, my equinox, my dads Tahoe, his Vettes and his Camaro's. We have bought lots of cars from him. Gave him the money, as did my father on good faith. When they order their first lot and options are available, he said we will order everything up. I am behind a few people that work there, and some other customers that beat me to it. As it turns out, my father will be the only one getting one because I am waiting for the big motor to come out. Because I don't want my new car to feel like a slug next to my old car.
