Talking Ordered one of them Camero cars

I apparently ordered one of those Camero cars. I got one of those slushbox setups cuz I like to drink my latte while I'm going down the 1320.

Yeah right LOL...John will order a V6 Camaro the same day that Ralph Nader buys/drives a big block Corvair with no cats on it.

Congrats John.

Yes I did Tony. I will also do that custom blue interior that's been in my head for years. My wife said I'm color blind which I thought was pretty mean on her part.

I ordered from your dealer suggestion Tony, Ben is a really nice guy. Maybe I'll drive it right to the track.

I want a new camero but my clients are dragging their feet.

Pretty excited to see these on the road one day. Feels like forever.

Details on the car...you going to stall it? If so what kind of stalls are the aussies using?

Sorry to hear you cannot enjoy the sweet nectar of life (coffee) and drive a stick at the same time

Congratulations!
I'd go automatic too, that way it makes it so much easier to swap a powerglide in from day one! Bob

Yeah ordered the car in Lansing MI so I could drive over to Milan and make a few passes.

I would do a stall at some point, but not after I had run bone stock for a while, and then ran with just a CAI and a tune.

Congrats. Don't the auto/L99's start cheaper than the manual/LS3's? I haven't taken the time to check out the order charts yet.
