I have my name on a list already. The dealer has told me they are not going to take orders until they have build sheets and price lists. They have no idea when that will happen though.

I don't think it is necessarily a bad idea as long as 1) the money is completely refundable (which it is); 2) you are indeed guaranteed one within a specified time frame that you have agreed on and 3) Have agreed to a certain price you are willing to pay or have been guaranteed a price that is no more than the MSRP.

Own one, dont date one!!!

I will not be able to put a down payment till mid 2009 and if they tell me i have to wait in line a few months behind a few people thats fine with me, I can save even more money and make $1000 dollar payments here and there. I am still paying off my wild australian excursion, then im gonna save for exactly 24 months for the Camaro. I should be able to put down between 20 and 30 K by then.

Same as mine,
this just guaranteed me that I would be able to build my camaro, when they found out how many they would be allocated. I know weve said before" A down payment means nothing, until we know the options!" But I sure do love the feeling of knowing that I am the first in line at a major KC METRO dealer to get my hands on one.

UNFORTUNATELY I WAS, 2,500 OVER MSRP. I WENT IN THERE JUST BEFORE X -MAS, TO PICK UP A GIFT MY SALESMAN HAD BOUGHT ME, IT IS UP TO 7,500 OVER MSRP. BUT IT STATES RIGHT THERE ON MY RECEIPT THAT JUST 2,500 OVER MSRP, OR I CAN GET IT BACK OR USE IT TOWARD THE PURCHASE OF ANY OTHER VEHICLE.

I understand what you guys are saying, and perhaps I should consider asking for my down back. And looking elsewhere. I just got caught up in the moment, I put that money down before the camaro was ever a sure deal. So I will have to make a call and see what has been done, and how many other people are on the list.

Doing a little bit of asking around sure won't hurt. If you call another dealer and let them know you are currently on a list and have $1000 to secure a Camaro, I am sure they will be happy to negotiate; however, since the release is still undetermined, there are not a lot of dealers that are even willing to take a deposit.

we have a dealer here in Austin that we use... we've bought 5 cars from them in the past... we've already reserved a car through them and wont have to put any money down until the options lists are in the dealer's hands... after that, it will be the standard $500 earnest money and then a waiting game to get the car... we went with a safe bet and chose the top dog coupe fully loaded in black with six speed manual.
