Hello everyone from East TN.

Hello all, First post here. We don't have a Camaro yet as we are still looking.
I have a '09 Vette and looking to buy a 2014 Camaro SS for the wife. Love the LS3 engine! She really likes the changes to the '14's and so do i.
Seems difficult to find many deals out there. Couple thou off sticker seems to be the norm. Anyone who would like to recommend a good dealer would be appreciated.
Anyway, living in East TN. is great with cars like this. Roads that are perfect for "spirited driving".
Happy motoring!

Welcome from a fellow East TN resident, I purchased my 1LE from Sexton Automotive Group in Harriman. They beat everyone else around my area by several hundred dollars. If you need to ask any questions, feel free to send me a PM.

Hello and welcome. I bought mine from volunteer Chevrolet in Sevierville tn. Very easy to deal with and I got exactly what I ordered. They don't have a huge selection of 14's but still worth looking into. Good luck!

Where are you at in east tn. Try champion Chevrolet in Johnson city, tn. They have a few ss's in stock and are real good to deal with. I have a 1LE on order there.

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, wive's, husbands, girlfirends and boyfriends 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!!

She got it!

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome!
I didn't know i had replies, it wasn't showing up in my email. Fixed now - i hope!
Well, we did it. Wifey now owns a '14 Black SS! She is thrilled! She drove it home today after a 3" snowfall last night. All she could do was pull it into the garage until the weather breaks, she is like a kid in a candy store but can't have any! The smile on her face i will never forget.
I will have some pics hopefully soon.
This is very special for her. She is a cancer survivor and has had 2 total knee replacements. It has been a tough 7 years for her. When Camaro was reborn in 2010, we really took notice. She has wanted one since then and now it has happened. We both like everything about this '14, from the changed front and rear to the vents in the hood. The power, handling and braking are impressive. I was talking to her about these great LS engines(she has the L99 auto) the Brembo brakes, 20" wheels, IRS, but all she wants to do is drive it!

Who can blame her?

More to come.......

Bob
