2008 to 2010 List of options every year?

Does anyone know where I can get access to the options listed for each model year?

I'm looking for one right now and I'm trying to find one with these options:

High rise spoiler
usb port on the headunit
boost gauge
lsd

I don't know the answer exactly but I do know this.

If you want a USB port on the head unit that rules out all 2008 models.

It depends.

I COULD be wrong but as I'm the only one helping thus far I'll take my best guess.

It depends what you want. I believe 2009 was the only year a sedan could be had.
2010 I THINK LSD and RPD were standard. I'm not sure on that.

I have a 2010 and the only option offered was LSD which I ended up taking for $500.

You are both right .... IIRC In Canada LSD was standard for 2010 so they came loaded .

In the U.S. LSD was the only factory option available ..... there were other dealer installed options like sport pedals and such but there was only one factory option (LSD) .

if theres one thing I know....its my RPD's.

2008- No RPD(story of my life)
2009- RPD available but only a third of the Coblt SS Turbos' that year came with an RPD
2010- GM had so many RPD left cause there want that many on the 2009 sooooooo
they put them on all 2010.

GM did a **** poor job at marketing the RPD and not many dealers even knew what it was so they didnt opt for the RPD( as not to drive the price up any more for the customer) and just got the free Analogue Boost gauge.

The RPD was a $295 option.....WHICH IS A STEAL!!!

Anyone else notice in the brochures how it said the RPD was supposed to be able to record 0-60 and 1/4 mile acceleration time? I assume they either planned to have this possible and never finished or they just assumed nobody would notice that feature was MIA

09 Is the best year cause you could get every option that was available. You could get the high rise that you couldn't get on the 2010's and you could get the Rpd that wasn't offered on the 2008's! You could also pick between the 3 colored interiors that you couldn't get on 2010( they only had black). Oh and the USB too!

But....... the 2008's were built better IMO! This is why! Do u ever noticed that the people with 08 are not having the issues that the 09 and 10's! After the 08 chapter 11 bankrupt the quality control on GM went down hill! I know this cause my friends are all mill wrights that work in Oshawa at the Camaro plant which is the number 1 auto plant in North America. They say that the over all quality control and finish diminished to save money!

I have all the options I wanted: sunroof, limited slip, RPD, premium stereo, two tone interior, etc. I did not want the high rise wing.

GM did not declare bankruptcy until June 2009. I bought my 09 SS in Feb 09 and that was before there was much talk of bankruptcy. I never had any warranty work done on my 09 SS/TC and it now has 54k miles.

The 09 production run was basically over before GM delclared bankruptcy ...... 2010 would have been starting production by then . The 09's have quite a few fixes that came from 2008 issues. With 08's being the first year .... they will most likely have more issues than the latter models

I have an 09 and the only thing ive had fixed is the rear rotor's that effected every year.

actually I went to go buy my coupe. showed up said I want the white SS. They brought a 4 door white 09 ss...I was like..nooo I wanted the coupe. So they went and got the coupe...then I thought ****..which one do I want?! Sometimes I wish I got the 4 door, but I have never had a 2 door before... the huge doors bug me but it is sportier. idk the 4 door would of been nice too but with the hardcore harness bar the back seat is kinda worthless.
