No direct from GM, I don't think. They were the special edition vehicles sold through some dealerships.

Maybe the Dick Harrell (sp?) editions...

I saw that too in GMHTP and had my doubts....I assume they're counting the Berger cars?

Post this in the Camaro Forum and see what kind of responses you get

The question was "from the factory". Zero SS's came from the factory with Fikse's. There is no RPO code for Fikse.

Bergers are not factory, they are nice aftermarket conversion cars.

The Berger SS came with Fikse FM/5 wheels...the magazine says that "Believe it or not these FM/10 wheels came on a limited amount of Camaro SSs, and thankfully the salesman didn't know just how rare they were."
I have never heard of a dealer or factory option for FM/10s.
