Its all your going to get out of an anniversary car, lets hope GM spends some more money on the paint, its a dark color, and we all know how that's gone so far.

From a 1-10 its a 7+

I like it overall but.

1) I sort of wish the blade spoiler was included by default. I'm sure you can always swap one on assuming the MY17 Camaros fix the fitment issues that MY16 had, where holes were exposed.

2) I'd like this in a color other than grey. Where exactly is the heritage in always offering anniversary editions in grey? I feel like this is some sort of weird cost savings scheme to limit the amount of customization on this car. Then again, I guess like the Synergy special editions, these are all supposed to maintain a certain "look" for easy identification.

The tidbit I found interesting is that they say "Available Summer 2016." Seems like the 2016 convertible is going to have a very short production run. 6 months or less?

At first blush I liked it, but I think the look would not age well. Suede inserts though, yes please.

Not bad looking at all.. but I was hoping for more of a true heritage package. If there's one time you want retro styling and cues.. it would be on the 50th Anniversary of an iconic vehicle like the Camaro. But then again it's GM, the 50th Anniversary Corvette was just flat out boring.

50th is a big deal. But basically a decal an wheel package. Same the Corvette 50th which was a unique color and badging.

Not disappointed...........................but

price hasnt been announced, comes with a
unique interior ($500)
unique wheels ($200)
unique brakes ($100)
Front Splitter ($350)
Grill Insert (I dont remember the price, but more than $100)
Decals ($450)
Extras ($???)

Thats worth more than $1500

Really, the stripe, while more noticable, is not a lot of the price

Maybe 50 would look too much like 5.0?

The car does look good and I suspected a decal kit 50th anniversary but at the very least make it in a special color and not grey. Don't get me wrong the grey is nice looking but it doesn't stand out and the orange accents look good on it but there's not much of it. I'm not sure if anyone who didn't know what they were looking at would recognize it as a special edition.

You can always take the "fifty" emblems off and have none or replace them with something else. People do it with the CAMARO emblems on the 5th gen and the current chicklets on the 6th gen.
