Consider that it looks like the same system...a $60,000 car's system...just bigger, and more robust to deal with the size of the top. |

Seriously you should start warning and suspending people complaining about price - how many threads do we need with "when I click every option box (they leave that part out though) the car is too expensive." annoyed to death trying to reason with these people. I have an idea for all you that think it's too expensive.... DON'T BUY ONE!

Will we start banning people who complain about the quality too?
The reason why there are so many posts by so many people is because it's a legitimate concern of people. Just banning and deleting posts reeks of fanboy conspiracy/coverup. I'd say just create a "Price Discussions" megathread in the Pricing & Ordering sub-forum and call it good. |

Prices are fine to me until the tax hits in crazy states. I really, really hate the high sales tax. Makes the whole thing harder to swallow, even if it's worth it

Back on topic ; from a bang for the buck perspective I feel the SS is not overpriced. It's a lot of car for the money, even at MSRP. However, GM has to do a better job convincing the public that this car has leaped categories and is no longer a pony car but a true sport car. The fact that it looks very similar to the prior gen hasn't helped. Not everyone reads C&D or Motortrend to understand what has occurred with the new gen vehicle. |

In NJ it's 7% + 4 year mandatory registration fees upfront + title/tags or about $4k on a nicely optioned SS. |

my theory all along is they want more V8 buyers to buy V6 and V6 buyers to buy 4's, with the price moving up, for fuel economy reasons.
still with all the talk about high 40's for loaded up SS's people seem to forget, or just don't know, that even back in the 1st generation a loaded Z/28 or RS/SS could overlap the Corvette's price. |

The V6's saw an even bigger price jump than the SS's.
To get what the 2LT had before, you have to add the lighting package, where before you got the ambient lighting and HUD as part of the 2LT. I don't think GM wanted people to buy more Camaro's at all, they wanted to make more money on each Camaro. |
