My dealer contact told me the order can be changed for up to 2 more months until they start getting the parts ready to build, but I think I'll be keeping it the same. Just wanted to share.

Dealer Update!
So, after the updated posts of this thread, I went to my dealer today after work, to update my order, and add the polished wheels....here is what they said:
They said they had contacted GM that day, and GM said they had heard of no such thing, that the RS package would not be updated w/ the polished wheels, and that this website was not affliated w/ GM in any way, and they (GM) wanted proof, b/c I was not the only person giving them this info. They even opened up a case # of this issue (RS package w/ polished wheels), he even showed me the fax! So, the dealer asked me to show him where I got the info, I went straight to this thread, along w/ another popular Camaro website, in front of them, and showed them the first post, and they printed out this entire thread, and faxed it to the GM person they had been in contact with..... What's yalls thoughts on this stuff??? What is going on? I wish someone had a straight answer about this issue. Sad thing...my dealer and others there, did not know who Scott S., Cheryl P., or John F. was....GM really needs to keep their dealers updated w/ info a little better.... |
Yeah, I just saw that on the Camaro Builder. $4865 is outrageous and just doesn't seem right. I just called my rep at the dealer who's been there for 20 years and he confirmed it was only $470 on his pricing sheet. He said nothing is for sure at all on the Camaro because it is all subject to change, but from the information he was given, that was the right cost. He said they are crediting you for the 20" wheels and tires and that is why it is not more. It doesn't make sense that it would cost almost $5k additional for 1" bigger cast, mass produced alloy wheels and tires. Who knows though. If I hear anything different from him, I will post it.

I want a list of dealers who are able to add the polished wheels to the RS package. This is getting to be ridiculous.

They all should sooner or later but remember that dealers are not always as up to speed on things as we are. It is easy for us to give out info, but not as easy as all dealers to be in sync with it. Give it time, we have plenty right now to change our orders as needed.

so, do you think that the 21" wheels are $4800 more expensive then 20" wheels? Because that's what it comes down to. You are upgrading from one set to another.

I have updated CamaroBuilder with the new information on the RS package. Jason will be posting the update (along with the upgrade to version 2.0) soon. Hopefully it will go out today!

The 21" wheels are a dealer option -- therefore, you're paying for both, and you should be able to keep the 20" wheels and tires that came on the car from the factory, too. If you don't get to keep the 20" wheels too, then I agree -- the listed price would be way too high. But I don't think that's the case. |
Very interesting. I didn't realize that dealer options worked that way.

Are there any comments on my dealer saying GM would not allow the polished wheel option to be added to the RS package? Has anyone else been able to change their order??? It seems no one is able to give a straight answer on this.

The dealers can only order what their system will let them order. You just have to give GM time to get the system updated.
