That mathmatical question must be some type of joke...unless it was for some game show...like 3-2=?? I would hate to be the poor soul that froze up just because of being nervous and screws up the answer....hehehehe.

Great news on this day...great news. Scott says no to a 40K Camaro. We were right.

No...you don't need to buy the DVD to enter...in fact, there's nothing in the DVD set. Just go to the Chevy site.

Wow -- people freaked over the $40K figure -- that's a rule for Sweepstakes in that in some states, you have to state a value.

The new Camaro will be very affordable.

Also think about this:

Bumblebee isn't a 6 cylinder -- so we know the winner will be getting a WELL equipped car -- and the color -- they will have to be specially painted.

Anyone price out a 'custom' paint job lately with 'trick' paint? (Bumblebee doesn't have a 'regular' paint job!)

so......calm down -- spread the word. The new Camaro WILL be very very affordable.

Today was a busy day for forums!
There was so much new info to gobble up (thanks btw) that they read it superfast, saw 40k...base camaro. and freaked out!

To be honest...and no offense to anybody here...I found it rather funny!

40k is attached to the "Bumble Bee" name. The normal Camaro when it comes out I think a base model V6 will be 21-22k. No stress here.

Anytime Scott quiets an unsettleing rumor I feel happy .
Actually, pretty much everytime he posts, I feel happy

He's got such a sense of humor, I would never have expected out of a 'big-shot' in a company. It's good to know that we've got "one of our guys [enthusiast]" with a say in things.

Well...that settles that! *wipes brow*

I must say that I was worried due to the way the article was written. It made it sound to be priced comparible to a base Camaro. In fact, I like how Scott puts it,
Quote:
"The new Camaro WILL be very very affordable."
I like that WILL and double very...hehe...that works for me!!!

Just means that "the big v8" that will "plant and old mans ass in the seat" will only be very affordable.

I think he was destined for this role...Settlemire. And he tends to end arguments and debates over rumors when he settles the matter...

Then he also commented a while back that his initals are S.S.

Coinicidence? Um...yeah - but still pretty cool!

read in the camaro sweepstakes rules:

Quote:
THREE (3) GRAND PRIZES/ARV: 2009 Chevrolet Camaro – Transformers Bumblebee Replica Edition-(ARV/MSRP: $40,000). This replica will be a production-version Camaro modified to resemble the exterior of Bumblebee, as seen in Transformers: The Movie. Specialty enhancements/design upgrades may not be covered by the GM New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Grand Prize vehicles will not be available for delivery until 2009. Winners must take delivery of vehicle within thirty (30) days of notice of availability from GM-selected dealer near each winner’s residence, and each will be solely responsible for sales tax, registration, license, title and insurance fees and cost of any additional optional equipment not provided with Grand Prize vehicle. Grand Prize vehicles’ APPROXIMATE RETAIL VALUE (ARV) is based on forecasted 2009 Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of a base model Chevrolet Camaro. Winners must a have valid driver’s license from jurisdiction of residence and proof of insurance to take delivery. No cash or other substitution may be made, except by the Sponsor, who reserves the right to substitute a prize in whole or in part with another prize of comparable or greater value if the intended prize is not available for any reason as determined by the Sponsor in its sole discretion. Each winner will be responsible for all taxes (not limited to federal, state, provincial, local and/or income) on Grand Prize and if a U.S. resident will be required to provide, to Administrator, his/her Social Security number for tax reporting purposes. Administrator will file an IRS Form 1099 with the Internal Revenue Service for the fair market value of any prize awarded to a U.S. resident.

When you think about it, $40K for a limited edition top of the line custom Camaro is really, really encouraging. I mean that undercuts the GT500 doesn't it? Yay.
