If the standard SS runs a staggered setup again, I'll walk on down to the parts department, and order a second set of wheels, and run the rears with summers all around, and the fronts with snows all around. If I was replacing my current Camaro,

-SS w/ LT1
-Manual
-Best suspension available
-Loudest exhaust, again
-Most agressive seats - speaking of which, I wonder if Chevy will switch us over to an in-house competition bucket this time around, like the C7 Corvette.
-Backup camera, because I can
A lot of folks will be buying this car and imediately buying custom wheels to put on it. If you go to your local speed/performance shop or tire shop, you may be able to find some hardly used stock wheels at a steeply discounted price.

I am considering a:

1SS w/LT1 engine
8spd Auto trans
Metalic Blue (I love my current IBM)
Magnetic Ride Control (if it's an option)
Maybe black wheel option (depeding on what looks best with the shade of Blue they offer)
Upgraded Stereo
Dual mode exhaust
2.1 Gigawatt Flux Capacitor

Don't know for sure obviously, but I'm guessing since both auto and manual get the same version of the engine this time with the same power levels, and this new auto performs better than the old one, it could happen.

Especially since the new Z06 is offered with an auto.

for me ( pray to God that they release the 1le right away, because I've waited this long)

it would be:
2SS RS 1LE w/NPP either red or black not sure yet, I'll let my wife pick the color. Beings that it will be a 2SS it pretty much comes with everythink I want. Not sure yet on the Recaro's.. and I don't want to pay more than 41 out the door. Even with GM discount.

They haven't indicated that it wouldn't change either. If they don't offer it with the automatic transmission, I can always add the black wheels and hood myself. The only thing I would really be missing is the suspension upgrade, although that's the main reason I want the package.

I would be surprised if they make specific packages based on transmission choice this time around, considering autos outsell manuals by a wide margin. Its safe to assume that autos will at least get the same engine this time, since they do in the Corvette, and GM now has an auto transmission that can handle the power properly.

In a perfect world it would be a white with leather and no options with an auto. DD with routine trips to the 1320. Exhaust, cold air and a tune asap!!!!!

Medium Blue
7-speed manual
1SS
1LE
HUD (hopefully available as a separate option)
PDR
NPP
Magnetic Ride (if separate from 1LE)
Cloth Recaros
Would like the wheels that were just revealed in polished aluminum
6 piston front brembos

All of the above with the LGX V6 would be awesome too.

Just as I did in 2009, I would consider which version best suits the base for my upgrade plans.
For sure: V8, Laguna Blue (or something very close).
I am absolutely going to stick LT headers on it right away and therefore have to tune it. I could care less about warranty, GM makes dependable drivetrains. Also, the huge negative of AFM will be considered strongly.

Everything else will be considered for what you get for the price, and will I want to change it for something aftermarket anyway.

2SS/RS
8spd Auto
Nav
NPP
Mag Ride

IF they have a Shark Gray color and Black Wheel combo then I'll do that...

If not, then White/Black with Black Wheels
