Hi - I've already spoken to Chevy here (and a few others).

We get it around March/May 2010 in RHD. When we can order... no one knows. It may yet be canned since GM is not doing so well in the US -...

It's been on here and on videos shown but I have nothing personally as I don't keep that sort of documentation - nor would I. It's just too hard to do so.

It's already been stated that the chassis and those wheel arches have been engineered to take up to 24 inch wheels. Whether the car "works" with them is another thing entirely :)

It's a great looking car with a lot of presense... notice it was all filmed out in the country though - not near anything that would make it look like a tank? :P

One inch is unlikely to alter the handling or ride unless they're much heavier than the stock 20s.

One will be 2nd hand, the other - new. I guess the distinction has to be, which one "does it for you?".

I'd own either - the Camaro is bigger, more muscular and over here in the UK it'll be RHD...

A good paint job here would be a minimum of £3500 but usually end up around the £6000 mark - so that's $7000/12000 in your money. The $10k mark seems spot on!

Txturbo is right - my Monaro has 245 35 19s on it and the tyres are some of the most expensive I've ever come across. I'm considering 20s just to get that down :P

I never liked the look of the car with a sunroof so this is no big deal for me - my Monaro doesn't have one and the option for them on UK cars these days is kinda rare anyway. Still, I understand why...

It's no different here - the M3 starts at £52k which is hopefully something like £15k more than the base Camaro - but they are very different cars.

18s will make the car look like a toy - and given that the rolling radius across all wheels are the same, it'd have tyres bigger than an off-roader. It's only because the wheel arches are so huge -...

I think that looks really tidy - especially in the silver. Weird as I prefer black but the Aus car looked wrong.

Either way, it's the SS for me :)

Given the size of the thing I think 20s look small on it - which is a shame as I'll be going for the 21s or aftermarket. Still, you're probably right from a performance angle.

I'll wait for the test drive - the looks and what I've seen make me want it but it's very very big and I'd worry it won't "fit" my daily life. Based on that and it's release date - mid-2010.
