So if you don't get an answer from your dealer until august 6 that means no Camaro.

Jealous of the seemingly quick SS turnarounds, even 1LE.


I think the SS 1LE wheels are my favorite wheels of any "stock" camaro, ever.

Ordered mine on 3/31 same day GM Accepted. 4/13 TPW 5/1 built 5/5 Stork drop 6/1 pick up on 6/8. More to follow.

Do they need to do an alignment after install? I don't like the idea of the dealer messing with the alignment. I've had almost nothing but bad alignments from dealers and garages.

It should be a simple install.

So for everyone that ordered a camaro, and if GM does not accepted it by the 15th June, does that mean it will be cancel and have to reorder for the 2024? I've placed my order on the 25th March, and it's still on the 1100 status :(

Yes.

Your ordering dealer has not been able or willing to spend an allocation on this order, and at 1100 status it's nothing but a declaration of intent on your end: unless action is taken, it is going nowhere.

In other words, if you want a new Camaro, you need to be more proactive and either coerce the dealership into pushing your order through to at least 2000 status, or quickly find other dealerships that actually have allocations that they're willing to give you.

How do you 'coerce' the dealership into getting to 2000? My understanding is that they have no say in getting an order accepted by GM.

I dunno, there are so many unknowns here... say, if they do have allocations but don't want to "waste" it on your Camaro order, plus you bought 4-5 vehicles from them over the years, then you could tell them you will never come back and neither will anyone else you know, and they may reconsider order priorities.

I'm not trying to tell anyone what to do, just giving some ideas, because his order is stuck and simply waiting is unlikely to help.

I see, thank you for the insight

I found a dealership to give me a 2023 2SS vert with everything I want in it for MSRP, $750 "cash towards purchase", then gave me $11,450 for my 2016 2RS vert with 116k miles on it. Total for my new 2023 2SS was just under $49k after.dealership fees, taxes & transport fee from one of their dealerships about 400 miles away.

I just gave up hoping for an allocation to get filled at one of the 2 dealerships I had left deposits with. And many others flat out told me there was "virtually no hope" of them getting a 2SS allocation. So I took one that another dealership had on their lot.
