Sweet vert! Thanks for the photo shoot. It looks great.

I can tell you, I love the vert. With the top up, I can't imagine the coup being much quieter. If you are going to keep it long term, check with Becky on an extended warranty if you have not already.

Oh, and I've almost completely forgotten how long I had to wait.

CONGRATULATIONS! Mine is in the railyard and due to the dealer Wednesday or Thursday. Hoping to pick up Friday...have a seafair parade to be in...lol

Very Nice ride Ric. Yes Becky's folks are great and can figure out what's up.

Yeah I only wish I lived closer or I'd be hanging out at Rodgers all the time. Becky, Joe, and the whole gang there are aces.

Congrats Ric! She looks amazing!

My Fifty lettering is straight and all but is it just me or do the letters seem like they didn't use enough mounting tape at the factory? Mine can each wiggle a little more than I'd expect them to. I'm afraid of catching one with a towel or wash pad one day and ripping a letter off. I'm careful not to do that of course but accidents happen.

Yea, I was surprised too. I'd driven a 5th Gen a few years ago and they were quiet. But not as quiet as this. I am curious if you have much heat transfer thru the roof. I'm driving thru the "heat dome" in Kansas and Missouri and didn't really feel much heat. Good insulation I'm guessing.

The Three Amigos can finally ride!
(Separately, 'cause they don't live near each other.)

I did notice that the "cushioning" was a bit thick. No automated car washes!

I was going to pose a question to the 50th buyers, how many Fifty logos are on the car? Not the word itself, the emblemized logo. (BTW, I don't have the answer.)

[RicSimonis]

Thanks for all the comments. I'll post a few more when I get time.
(and I want to reshoot after some additions are made) (It's a secret.)

I am probably the right one to ask. I have had mine out in 115 degree weather. I don't notice a lot of heat transfer through the top. The sir conditioning appears to keep up fine. And boy am I turning on the cooled seats! This is the best vert top I have seen.

Kaizer is going to need to take his shoes off to answer this one for his car!

Several people have recommended "Raggtopp" to clean and protect the top. I already have some for when my car gets here. Ordered from Amazon, the version for the cloth top, not the vinyl. I glad to hear it's quiet and well insulated. We don't get 115 here in central Texas but we do get into the 105-106 range. Enjoy.

Agreed, I could hang out there all the time if I lived closer! Everyone there is AMAZING!

And yes Chris, my Fifty lettering is the same, mainly the Y for me.

Yes the 3 50th Amigos can ride finally!

As to the answer...and yes I took my shoes off to count, lol.

Driver Side Hood Stripe - 1
Front Quarter Panels - 2
Rear Trunk Deck - 1
Steering Wheel - 1
Passenger Dash - 1
Front Headrests - 2
Sill Plates - 2
Brake Calipers - 4
Center Caps - 4 (this one is debatable since it doesn't say Fifty, but 50 years of Camaro)
Floor Mats - 2 (LPO Item on my Camaro)
Center Console Lid -1 (LPO Item on my Camaro)
License Plate - 1 (My Plate got approved by state of TN, says F1FTY, will be in soon)

Total - 22 for my car, 18 for a stock 50th with no LPO items.

Ok, can't count the number itself Kaizer.

14 is what I count on a stock car. The hardest one, and the one some may not know about, is the one in the hood stripe. I'm finding it hard to get a good pic of that one.

Going to have Becky's folks look at my passenger emblem and see if there's anything that can be done about it. Maybe that's Chevy's way of making each one unique.

I thought you were wanting all places it's badged with something related to 50th.

As for the hood stripe how about this pic?
