So in reality for an average Joe to buy an SS at MSRP might take 1-2 years. Who knows, by then I might be ready for a new car!
I remember seeing a post a couple weeks ago where the sales numbers of the camaro were reported, and quite the opposite of what one may expect, the "top dog" most expensive model they have (2SS RS) is the best seller, with the 6-banger in last place. I'm sure the GM folks were like
