I've got a red one that will be built early next spring. Need to talk to Matt about the possibility of putting a LS7 crate motor, headers, etc. in it. If that's not an option, and it's probably not, I'm going to keep this one fairly stock.

If I hadn't seen Jerry taking delivery of his DH car at GMMG I never would have bought this car. Too pretty to pass up.

I thought they all started out at the same list, but maybe not since some are t-tops, some not. The base on mine was $86K and change. Anything additional and you pay GMMG and not Berger. I believe phase III runs about $25K, not sure as I had my ZL-1 engine built elsewhere.


BTW - when I ordered mine 6 or 8 weeks ago it was the last one. There may have been one more but I don't think so. Dick J. at Berger would know.

Yours probably is the last. I know at Camaro Superfest Dick said there were only about 7 or 8 remaining cars. He had a Phase III Lemans Blue one there and sticker on it was about $125K. I'd LOVE to have one but it's WAY out of my price range. I can't wait to see Matt Bergers finished car. There was one that had a silver base coat with green jambs I believe was his at the Berger show this year. I didn't see Matt at the show to ask him about it.

To have the full package done with the LS7 Ron at GMMG said it is about a 140K conversion. I was down there a couple months ago at GMMG to have my car tuned and they were finishing a blue one, a red one and then Rons DH drag car.

NO they do not sell the parts. Only way to get them is to buy the whole car.

It is a GMMG exclusive and you have to buy the complete kit from them and let them do the install.

You don't buy the kit from them. There are 35 DH edition Camaros. That's all and they're not doing any more cars/kits after that. I believe they had to get the kit licensed from GM for them to use it.

Whats stopping someone from making a aftermarket version and selling it? I think a lot of people would be interested cause the ones that are out look like crap imo.

Cost, complexity, you have to do a LOT of work to make the widebody kit fit and work right according to the GMMG guys on here. Like I said before I believe GMMG had to get licensed from GM to make the kit since it was their design that was on the Sunoco/Donahue tribute car.

I know that you can't buy it from them it is a conversion that they do. I was down there talking to those guys and they said if they could do just the rear conversion it would cost 5 grand. It is liscensed and an exclusive for GMMG to use on the D/H cars.
