The 1st production Camaro was just sold to Rick Hendrick for $350,000. All of the money goes to charity just like the 1st production ZR1 last year. I will get pics and video soon.

They showed a silver with black stripes on red and black interior but Rick gets to order his own specs on the first one. The one at the auction was a pre-production i believe. He gets to order whatever color options etc he wants.

You would be correct. I wonder if he will display it at one of his dealerships or race shops. I would love to go to Charlotte and see the 1st production 2010 Camaro.

someday

so does that mean the 10,000 pre-orders they got already have to wait for him to spec out his?

He should have it painted like the Lowes car since Jimmy is his money maker.

Probably, the one with all the money makes the rules.

Wonder if they'll let him put an LS7 in it. They said whatever you want, including engine.

just so you guys know the ZR1 that was sold last year. is now Jay Lenos. on his site jaylenosgarage.com he shows the vin number ending in 0000001. i dont know what happened but some how jay leno has the first production ZR1. just thought you guys should know since it was brought up above.

Probably not. The big point to buying the first is the VIN. I would think GM could just pull VIN 1 and set it aside or at least stick it in the line once his mind is made up. Just cause it has VIN 1 doesnt mean it has to be the firs off the line does it? Doesnt it just require its the first chassis in exsistance? As long as the chassis rolls off the assembly line its legit. then they can set it aside and let other roll by that have been assembled until Rick makes up his mind on everything.

wether they did or not, i cant see the purpose. If you want the first production car, wouldnt you want it to be production spec? Why have the first one be so vastly different? It kind of defeats the purpose if you ask me. Plus i doubt its going to be driven so a v-6 wouldnt even make much of a difference its just going to sit most of its life. He should never register it, and only drive it when necessary, and take it back there in 50 years. That would be awesome!

As doubtful as Ive been of this new camaro I hope im eating my words a year from now and this thing blows sales outta the water.

2002 SS #476

Does anyone know when they are supposed to start production? I thought they are due out March or April. Even though I don't care for it, I still may want to pick one up if I'm able to get the same build number as my 2002 SS.

I thought about that, but he could have one of one if he had an LS7 installed at the factory.

exactly that's y he should put the ls7 in it. in 50 years when it goes back up for auction whoever the owner is can say this is the only car that had the ls7 equipped from the factory.

If he could get any engine in it he wanted, why not do a GMPP LSX454 or LS9? Must be nice to have money like that... If I had 350k to drop it would be on a couple of ZR1's.

Or a ferrari 599 GTB fiorano....if you really wanted to waste buckets of cash.

Rick Hendrick can drive a ZR1 anytime he wants to because he owns MANY dealerships around the southeast. He bought the first Camaro because the money went to charity.
