Talking New 2011 VR 2SS/RS

I've been lurking for a few months and started shopping camaros a few weeks ago. I didn't think I could afford an SS and was sort of focusing my search on the LT models. Then a dealer about an hour away offered a serious discount on an '11 2LT that I'd asked about online. Turns out it had a sunroof which I'd ruled out after test driving a local used car. I'm tall enough to contact a sunroof frame on even the smallest bumps. Then I noticed that same remote dealer also had a 2011 2SS/RS M6 without the sunroof in stock and asked if they'd cut me a comparable deal on it. They did! ... I had Monday off work for the weekend holiday so I went out to test drive it, and bought it.

It's victory red, no stripes, but it does have the Hurst shifter. I'll have to get some pictures up soon.

Sounds like an awesome car and a great deal, I drove a 2SS M6 with the short throw for a few days before I could pick my car up, definitely causes big smiles! Welcome!

Micawber, CONGRATS on the ride and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, dad's, wive's, husband's, girlfriend's and boyfriend's here don't care....and take it easy.



oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I'm sure I'll be hanging around since I've already seen what a huge source of info you have here and I can already think of a few questions to research. I could get into trouble with that fridge too, but I think I can hold my own in a food fight.

I haven't gotten a chance to take any better pics yet, but someone else present during the purchase thought to use their cell phone. Nothing custom yet, but this is my new pride and joy.
