oops..sorry....was going to put the SS picture in the post also but couldn't get it to upload. That was suppose to be LS. There was also a yellow SS/RS there.

I think those wheels look horrible on the Camaro. Why would they show this off at an auto show? You want to show off your best looking vehicle... not an LS. Just seems weird.

You don't want people going into dealers expecting them all to look like a 2SS/RS, either. Somewhat of a letdown to folks with 24k to spend expecting 20" wheels and foglights.

Thanks for the pictures. I know they're not popular...but I kinda like the steelies.

I do hope they put something a little more...normal...on the 2011 models...

Apparently I am missinformed or just haven't paid attention. Are those the wheels that go on the base model?
And if so, who wouldn't pay the extra to get the good ones?

Yes, and...people who want a base model. You know...teenagers, early-twenties with lotsa college debt...

Not everyone's made of money for options....

I have a number of pictures as well, but, don't know how to upload them. For the most part, they are not any different then others we have seen on this forum. Like Txturbo said, the other car was a yellow 1SS. If someone can walk me thru it, I will be happy to post them asap.

ucla1ove3 · 01-24-2009, 04:26 PM

Yellow 1SS and the SIM LS. That's it. Can't sit in either one, and, they are both roped off. At least you can lean over and look inside.

ucla1ove3 · 01-24-2009, 04:28 PM

^^ it isn't working at the moment. it wouldn't allow me to upload my pictures either. after you click upload it pops up with an error message saying "security token missing, please contact the administrator if this was from a valid link"
