Yeah, it is a big disruption in many ways. I worked in a tier one automotive supplier manufacturing plant for many years, so I know the drill.

It was definitely worth a try asking, this is a once in a lifetime thing, our timing is just a little off. Nice that you already have your car in your stable, though. Enjoy your ride!

You wouldn't want to distract them. They barely got my bumper and paint finished without them (some would argue they didn't)

That is so cool!!! I wish I could do that for my build, but they're not doing anymore Camaro tours. I'll be plenty happy just to drive it, though.

Congratulations! Please post pictures when it arrives. Are you being charged any market adjustment? I had considered a new one because of the oil pump issue, but decided against it. In the end, I can't see the increase in base price off sets the replacement of the oil pump. Additionally, the 2017, being a 50th Anniversary, holds some historical significance.

Thanks, I'll put up pics once I get her home. No dealer markup. I think your 2017 is a keeper, that is a beautiful car and 50th anniversary year, very cool.
