New here and I'm completely insane.

Hey boys and girls... just wanted to drop in and say hello...

Just put my down payment/deposit on a 2010 Chevy Camaro 2SS at Colussy Chevrolet in Bridgeville, PA. First off those guys are the only dealership in the Pittsburgh area that didnt completely dick me around or try to charge me over sticker. They factory ordered the 2ss, black, RS package blah blah blah basically everything but sun roof, ground effects package, any body stripes and the 21inch wheels... but included the inferno orange interior.... sweeeeeeet.

I haven't driven a camaro yet... which makes me think im a complete idiot for buying a car i've never driven, and only sat in the RS. Oh well, i just had to have it so FTW. Someone who's taken delivery tell me its the greatest thing since sliced bread so i don't lose sleep for the approximately 11weeks 2days until mine realistically shows up. (we're guessing 12 weeks for delivery as that's how long its taken for every other car ive ever ordered) It be great if somehow mine just materialized this week. I'm getting rid of an 06 Dodge Ram SRT-10, so im anxious to get into a car with some HP that has a real weight distribution ratio and a proper suspension. I'm like a kid who just ate his weight in chocolate, thats how excited i am to get this damn car.

So whats the scoop people? Look forward to seeing everyones tweaks and tricks on the new Camaro....

Yeah, 3months was wishful thinking, especially with the bankruptcy, but the dealer used its last allocation on me, so that's nice... Maybe they'll throw me a bone since its the oldest Chevy dealer in country? Ha-- im polishing a turd here, but damn it if it wont be shiny!

How long has everyone else been waiting and is there anyway to track progress?

and hey SSmoke.... hope you dont live in PA because that was going to be my license place "SSMOKES"

It's still not too late to go out and find a dealer that will let you drive one....

Congrats on the order and welcome to the boards!

That may be a can of worms you don't want to open. Many of us have been waiting since mid-October. I ordered at the end of October so it's been about 7 months for me. The best way to track your progress is through your dealer.

Welcome to the site. You may not be completely insane, though. At least you sat in one first. I finally sat in one last month.
