Im thinking low 50's, but am not going to give the dealership a blank check.
I'll wait, am fine with my present 2011 Vert.

With that few being built on first run they were surprised to be accepted for the build.

Interesting........

Based on the info I have received and confirmed by Becky on this forum, the one I ordered on 2/1/18 is scheduled to be built next week (TPW 2/19/18) unless something changes between now and Monday.

Hope you enjoy as much as I also enjoy being in Club FIFTY...especially since I kind of copied their idea...it is the greatest flattery afterall ;)

To start out, please make a post in the thread, introducing yourself, and if you have ordered, what your status is!

You did start the thread, good for you. Maybe you also should make it a sticky so it stands out.:thumb::hail:

Seems kinda steep. H50 added $1,795 to a 2SS with pretty much the same content. Not sure if H50 was the same price for a 2LT, though.

That thread shows the total available for order by dealers for this week. The previous week of 2/1/18 was the first time the HW50th was available for order and had different numbers. http://http://www.camaro6.com/forums...d.php?t=519854

This does not correlate with the actual number of placed orders.

Here's how H50 ($1,795) compares. If it is Orange, it was not in H50. In Blue is the content that is similar.

The commemorative package pays homage to iconic Hot Wheels features including a Crush exterior color and stripes that replicate the toys’ famous orange tracks. The $4,995 package, available on Camaro 2LT and 2SS coupe and convertible models, features the following content:

Satin Graphite stripes with Silver Ice Metallic accents (Matte grey center stripe and gloss orange outer stripes in H50)
Satin Graphite ground effects
20-inch forged aluminum wheels (with summer-only tires on SS) in Satin Graphite with milled faces and unique center caps (Unique 20" Machined Face Wheels)
50th Anniversary Hot Wheels fender badges (At least 15 incidences of "Fifty" in various places on the car, including fender badges)
Unique grille with Galvano Chrome inserts (Included in H50)
Orange brake calipers (Included in H50)
Dark taillamps
Black taillamp panel with the Hot Wheels emblem (Included in H50)
Black Chevrolet bowtie emblems
Jet Black leather-appointed interior with exclusive orange inserts and orange accent stitching (Similar in H50 Grey insert seats with Alcantara instead of orange insert)
Orange kneepads on the doors and orange seat belts (Grey Alcantera kneepads in H50.) Would have loved the orange seatbelts, though
Embossed front-seat headrests (Yup. Included in H50)
50th Anniversary Hot Wheels badge on the steering wheel (Same Fifty badge as all 2017 Camaros)
Illuminated doorsill plates with 50th Anniversary Hot Wheels badges (Included in H50)

That is a bit to much for $3200 considering there's only 4 items extra you get from the H50. Must be Trumps fault inflation. Or the president of GM needs a new pair of shoes.

Seems about right for MSRP. The ground effects are what $2000 MSRP, Dark tails $600 and bowties a couple hundred? No idea what those special seat belts would cost if they were to ever be optional.

I'm not a big fan of the color. It looks great in pictures, but in person.......meh. It is a solid orange. It reminds me of the Hot Wheels track orange. If it were metallic, it might look a whole lot better. It's not even close to the actual Hot Wheels 1/64th scale car color (which is metallic). I love the idea of this as I'm a Hot Wheels collector. I'm sure over time the color will grow on me.

Looks better on the ZR1. Greetings from Chicago Auto Show
