I have no idea what kind of deal you can get on one, i am talking sticker price only.

regardless, i can't imagine paying $40K for a camaro, so, to me, a camaro priced in the high $30's is not a bargain but instead is the highest price I could imagine for that car. people that like camaros may think $40K would still be a good deal. just my .02.

I don't think adding the gound effects kit is a fair comparison. Most of the new f-body owners are not getting it. Using that logic would be equivalent to tacking on a bunch of dealer installed NISMO options and saying the Z is over $40k. Not the case. You can get Zs for much less than that all day long.

You can get a loaded SS for around $35k. Again a bargin in my book. Find me any car that handles well, has 400 plus horse power, traps at 111, and that stickers in the mid 30s? Good luck.

I've seen new vettes going for under $39K lately. That's a far better deal, IMNSHO.

I saw 5 of them on AutoTrader about a week ago when I did a search on new Vettes and filtered under $40,000. None today though. This is THE time to get a Vette if you ever want one, after this recession, you'll probably never see new ones at this price again.

I just went by the option prices on their website. Its safe to say you can get a $34K SS with a few minor options (floormats, etc) for $35K, and you could load it up for a few thousand more. I am not trying to dog on the camaro, the more performance cars out there the better.
