Gorgeous! I have a 2011 Inferno Orange / Black Rally stripes and I can't wait to see the HW50 next to it. I am curious how different the colors are. This is just beautiful. Congratulations!

Just to be clear, that is NOT my car. That is the car Al O. is currently driving. He drove it to the James-Martin Chevrolet Motor City Performance Car Show. My car is a 2017 2SS Fifty Convertible.

Nope. According to Al, they are not cleared for public events yet. There are only 6 of them currently being driven by engineers on Michigan roads.

BTW - and this is important....Todd Christensen, Camaro Marketing Manager, was there too. He says that orders for Hot Wheels will CLOSE in about a month. So, if you want one, better get on it quick.
Hey hey hey stay right there away from me

Then there are only 6 cars in Michigan, we saw the black, the red hot, the satin gray and someone said he saw one of the color garden red ... what will be the two remaining?

I just took delivery of 2 2018 Hot Wheels last week. One for my wife who fell in love with one that was on the showroom, I bought her a 2LT convertible and myself a 2SS hard top. We both love the cars. We took her's to Key West over the weekend and enjoyed the ride down Route 1. I wanted to take a picture of it at the point south with the top down but it was raining sunday morning. I will take being the first 2018 HW at the southern most point in the USA.

I think Yes, because it did not have the factory lights, by the way, I hope that the front bar and flowtie are wrapped in satin black like the front splitter and hood

We work together so the cars spend a lot of time together. They were built the same day and 10 cars apart on the line.

I don't have a VIN yet, Chevy customer service said the target date is May 21st. (which by the way, chevy customer service is the best way to get a status... GMAuthority is a joke...)

I had a 2010 for a short time. I traded it for a truck in 2012 due to family needs. The kids are grown up now so its time to have what we want. I traded in a 2017 Challenger Hellcat for the SS Camaro and bought the convertible without a trade. I gave my wifes 2015 Taurus to our 18 year old because they didn't want to give me enough for it. The Hellcat was a great car but the insurance was crazy. I can insure both Camaro's for $266 less a month than the Hellcat. Thats with a clean driving record.
