Default Model year end deals on 2010 camaros?

Anyone around houston seen any deals on 2010 camaros?

I want to look at trading into one, but i dont have the time to drive all over town looking for who has deals, and who doesnt.

Ive tried using thier internet pages, but most of them are outdated "specials" and unreliable on thier inventory.

suggestion: keep your Formie and get a 05/06 C6 Vette

the 2010 Camaro's aren't the greatest car out there. you'll actually miss your Formie when you drive the overweight and very claustrophobic SS.

The formy is long gone my friend. and i do miss it.

Im only looking to get an LT model, i want it for a daily driver and i figure if i can get a DD that looks good and has power for as cheap as a loaded out econo box, why not.

Yeah the LT models are v6's

As for the mustang thats very true, its not out of the question, but the 2011 is the powerhouse, im looking for a 2010 thats taking up space on the lot and the dealer wants to unload.

EDIT: I had not looked at 2011 mustang v6's......i was expecting them to have a higer price tag being new and powerfull. I may be visiting my sales guy at Joe Meyers when i get in.

Dude get a mustang. The new camaros suck, I have driven both many times at work and the mustang is so much better inside and out. Plus the clutch isn't like a pogo stick like in the Camaro.

Yeah im gonna go for a test drive in both. Im still looking for other ppls input on deals in the area as well. If anyone has a suggestion on a peronal salesman or a dealership to work with in the area, that would be helpful too.

I've had numerous LS1 Formulas. I don't feel any of them were as good a car as my 2010 Camaro. Yes, the 5th gen is heavier, but it is also quicker and better built than the 4th gen. I'm not saying the 5th gen is an awesome car, because it isn't. Just saying I don't miss any 4th gens compared to it.

i guess from a performance standpoint he would have gone from a fairly spacious Formie running mid 12's to an almost 4000lbs car that would be slower and feel smaller interior wise.

i was a big 5th Gen fan when i first saw them and thought "that's such a badass car", but when i got in one and drove it up and down 45 i was a bit dissapointed.

i have yet to test drive the new 5.0 though.

I'm curious to see what improvements if any GM is going to make on the 5th Gen. Has there been any changes announced for 2011?

Same herewith the Camaro. After driving the new Mustangs around though I loved them. I hated the cars at first because of the looks but they have really grown on me a lot and I love the interior. The clutch is sooo much nicer than an SS also.


I was at the dealership yesterday looking for trucks and they are really moving the 2010's and are doubling the rebates. Now is a good time to buy. You can also get a demo and knock even more off.

Which vehicle are they doubling the rebate on?> The Mustangs? Do you remeber how much the rebates were?

If i can get a decent dealer rebate or incentive, then ill probably get a stripper GT

I am sure they are on the mustangs too. But the 2010 silverados were $5k off and the 2011's were $2500 off plus other small rebates. I never got around to asking about the mustangs but I guarantee they will work with you. I got a 2010 texas edition silverado down to $27k.

Damn, i would never get a mustang new, i might get a used one a do a LS swap, but the new camaro rides better than the stang and that is key for being a DD. I have driven both and the new camaro didnt bother me, you sound like women. But then again, i drive a 89 RS from time to time that has a clutch that most wouldnt like, but i am a big guy that doesnt mind a clutch that you have to work with a bit. Knocking a whole car because of a clutch, LOL.

The whole car sucks lol. I can't see, clutch sucks, interior is alright but still sucks. Shifter is kinda goofy, in the auto's I cringe every time hearing the plastic on plastic grinding putting it in drive. ******* door panel is massive lol, it's like a wall.

It's kinda funny how how all that **** bugs me after coming out of 70 chevelles, camaro's, 4th gens etc haha. They should have used the G8 GT interior in the Camaro's.

out of all the top 3 major sport coupes the Camaro is by far the worst one.

the Challenger SRT8 is a tank and is the slowest, but the interior is awesome and it looks half a million times better than the SS.

on the track no one can touch the 5.0......
