Amen to that.
Car isn't even signed for yet and I already called JLT. It's going to be a fun summer....

Congrats! You now have a hot rod for the summer, and a good looking one at that. I can't blame you for changing product under the circumstances. You will probably do better in the resale department later too buying a 1 year old Shelby used instead of a new Camaro that will end up seeing manufacturer incentives next year.

I found this car to hold me over for a month or two! If the SS goes into mid July I will cancel my order as well and start looking elsewhere for my horsepower needs just out of principle. GM "sold" me a car. Oh really. Where is it. Oh yeah, I don't f/n have it yet. Oh, maybe I can rent one from AVIS!

Yeah, 426 hp is crap. I like the way you come on here and take shots at the general, and the Camaro. Classy!!

I sure wish you had bought my 2009. I have a 2010 GT 500 on order and need to move this one. Not to mention the new camaro that will be here mid year.

426 is crap if you are used to 400 in a car (07 C6) that weighs half as much. LOL J/K
Sorry but given the time I have had to think about my decision I just don't feel the LS3 is going to get it done. Not when the LSA already lives and breathes in a production GM vehicle.
