Price out a fully loaded V8 Mustang vert....

Take that price and add a 3% increase for inflation over the next few years.

Then add between $500 to $1000 more because that is the Camaro’s target price range to a comparable Mustang.

I bet you come pretty darn close to what a fully loaded 2009 Camaro V8 vert will cost and what I have figured.

Now, I will also say, I did not include any rebates in my figures. I'm willing to bet your car was purchased less than MSRP.

I'm not figuring actual purchase price. I'm figuring MSRP.

And I'll bet you I'm somewhere with in $1000 of the actual Camaro price in a few years.

Now I will also say I built that options sheet months ago and I know things have changed since then. I need to update it. But the numbers are still close.

 

It depends on a lot of factors: demand for a V6 Challenger, demand for the other cars built at Brampton, their success at implementing flex, etc., etc. If they can't move the iron with a V8 then of course they will consider V6 variants.

Last I heard, the inside word was still saying that the first year's run would be Hemi-only, your choice of 5.7 or 6.1. Bigger Hemi (and V6s, if any) to follow.

 

Just in case you missed it in the forum….I made another pricing thread…….

A V6 mustang with EVERY high cost option is 30,000 dollars. 6000 is a big difference, not to mention almost no one buys a V6 with every option box checked. A fully loaded GT vert is 35500.

I don't know why people insist on pretending to have a clue what they are talking about with these cars. It's all speculation, and pretty pointless. The car will cost what GM decides it costs when it gets rolled out.

 

That is great insight. As a matter of fact since so one really knows anything about the Camaro yet seeing as it still has 2 years until it's official release, I say that we just close down the '09 Camaro portion of the board all together. What are people thinking coming around here and speculating....

 

I don’t know people keep coming in here insisting that we DON’T know anything about this new Camaro

 

There is a difference between speculating about it and posting "pricing guides". Forgive me if I am wrong, but this is "News and discussion", which I would interpret as discussion about news on the Camaro.

 

I never said my pricing guide were anything but speculation. But they are educated speculation and I dare you to find anything more detailed.



Geeeezzz......chill out.....I'm just trying to give people a guide to figuring out what the 5th gen might cost....

I'm sorry if I have more of a clue than you.......

 

I am sure more of us appreciate your effort than not... Good job!

 

I am pretty sure I have many, many more facts about the car than you, but if it makes you feel better, knock yourself out.

 

Again poopy pants...if you think 36 is KEWL for a V6 vert with every option under the sun......don't move to my location. We do not pay that.
You need to quit your "mrs cleo" of price options.
Your inflation predictions does not relfect what goes on in the real world.
In my neck of the woods a 12$ an hour job is great. So do the cleo on that one. And yea, you may not care, but the bottom line of GM does when they want to sell a car.
Glad to see you edited your other ignorant price post too, and no, I AM the FATHER. I bought my 03 GT for 19k, if your envious, sorry tadpole.

 

You need to have a cup of STFU, and quit your BS....

 

You don't. You need to stick a sock in the pie hole brother.
Sorry.

 

Ok. If I judge by your join date and not post count you're obviously not total ****ing n00bs.

We have SEVERAL people on this site that are in positions to be in the know for GM and Ford. At least one of which has repeatedly put himself in harms way to bring information to this site. And thats been since 2002, not since the concept came out and bunch of trolls swarm the section with post about how "Oh so cool the SS is." because their memory only goes to 1996.

Furthermore, those people here who do know WTF they are talking about, sometimes share more with some than others, for obvious reasons. Safe to say Stefan isn't totally shooting in the dark here.

Even if he was, Its more than Ive seen either of you contribute, so I think it would be much more expedient if you STFU.

I just assume $30k + or - $10k
