Do yourselves a favor, and order from Becky...my 2017 Camaro 1SS story (with pics)
I don't want to make this too long, but I did want to share my story quickly. I have owned different muscle cars over the years but had to sell one I really loved when my wife and I were pregnant with our first child. We now have two young boys who are old enough to sit in forward-facing car seats, so a Camaro was feasible. I test drove a couple and found out that my car seats would fit, and there wasn't much looking back from there.
I live in Saint Louis, Missouri, but I had heard of Becky through this site and thought it wouldn't hurt to give her a call. After a quick call, it was very clear that Becky was great. I also ran numbers with a local dealer, but they couldn't match her pricing. I ordered the car, and it was in to her dealer in about 5 weeks (or less, if I remember correctly). I didn't mind going to Detroit to pick up the car, as I love a road trip and a little adventure. I took my almost four year old son with me for some quality bonding. We left at 5:40 in the morning, drove to Detroit, picked up the Camaro, and drove to South Bend, Indiana to spend a couple days with a friend all in one day. My little guy was a trooper. Anyway, the trip was amazing, though tiring, and Becky is the best! She was out of town, but Joe (General Manager) picked me up from the airport where I dropped off my rental car and ordered my son and I dinner. The experience was awesome, and just so easy. Anyway, here are some pics: Leaving at 5:40 am: Watching the sun come up on our drive: My son slept through me signing the papers: My Camaro sat with some good company: The car was more beautiful in person than I imagined: Another at Becky's dealership: From the drive home: Yes, two cars seats fit in the back: A picture from today. I spent five hours detailing her last night. I love the American flag in the background:

Nice! Congrats! I sold my '98 Camaro SS right after we had our first child back in 2004, swore up and down that I would get another sports car, after many almosts of buying another Camaro or Corvette and 11 years later, finally got my 6th gen SS back in December of 2015, feels awesome to be driving an awesome sports car again.

I forgot to mention that I ordered the base exhaust and had them install the fascia to accommodate 4 tips and the Borla before I took delivery. They also installed a Hurst short throw. Both mods are amazing!

I'm in Sacramento, Ca. and ordered from Becky. She is the best. She is shipping the car to a dealer in my area. I send her the paperwork & a cashier's check. She calls the dealer & says "hand him the keys".
No dealer bull manure and only enough time for the local guy to hand me the keys which I will insist be turned over in the parking lot! LOL! PS: If you can't tell I can not stand car dealer sales people or management; the lowest form of humanity. This, of course, does NOT include does not include the mechanics who generally very good guys. Go Becky and go the best! |

Great story OP.
I live in Milwaukee and ordered from Becky/Rodgers. Same great experience and no BS on the purchase price or my 13 ZL1 trade value. I drove ~6 hours in the ZL1 and then back in the new 2SS. When my wife's normal car needs replacing, I'll call Becky.

I follow Becky on IG and saw those pictures. Congrats! I told my 3-year old son that I'll put his car seat in my SS and take him for a few rides!
