Local Dealer Accepting Only 2009 SS Orders

Went to the dealer to order an 08 SS/TC.

They claim they cannot order anymore and the only option is the 09. Not a terrible situation, I'm down for an '09 (500 down to be precise; which I think is ridiculous considering they don't have the prices yet!).

I have the current list of Standard Items and Options I can post if anyone is interested. New for 09 was the Performance Display to replace the A-pillar gage. USB Radio. Bluetooth and no spare tire.

Why do you say the interest will be insane?

because its at the beginning of the model year so your interest rates will be around 6% which is high compared to my 1.9%

Again, I don't know if there are no more '08 orders being accepted by Lordstown. I only know what my dealer says, which I take with a grain of salt. That being said the current list they have on their build site is as follows.

Standard:
Air Bags - Front, passenger detecting
Air Bags - side curtain
Air Conditioning
RDS Stereo with CD, MP3 playback and Aux jack
XM Radio with 3 month trial
Pioneer 7-Speaker System
NEWBluetooth for phone
Cargo Net
Cruise Control
Console with 2 power outlets
Cup Holders
Defogger, rear window electric
Defogger, side windows
Door locks, rear child safety (Sedan Only)
Locks, remote with securtiy
Floor Mats, oooooooooh
Intrumentation, Sport gages, a-pillar boost gage
LATCH system, car seat anchors
Lighting, dome and trunk
ON-Star, 1 year safe and sound plan
Safety belts
Seat Adjuster, driver 4way manual height
Seat, easy entry front passenger (Coupe Only)
Seats, ultralux high bolster
Shift Lever, leather wrapped
Steering Column, tilt
Steering Wheel, leather wrapped mounted audio/cruise controls
Theft deterrent system
Tire Pressure monitoring System
Trunk release emergency handle
Trunk release, remote
Visors, vanity mirrors
Windows, power with driver express-down
Daytime Running Lamps
Door Handles, body color
Fascias, sport package with fog lamp extensions
Fog Lamps
Glass, solar ray light tinted
Headlamps, halogen
Mirrors, outside power adjusted
Moldings, lower body rocker
Spoiler, decklid
NEWTire Sealant and inflator kit, in place of spare
Tires, P225/40R18 Y-rated performance Tires, blackwall
18" Forged Aluminum Wheels
Wipers, speed sensitive
Battery, trunk mounted
Brakes, 4-wheel ABS
Stabilitrack, 4 Settings
Traction Control, all speeds
Engine, ECOTEC 2.0L Turbo
Exhaust, stainless steel with chrome tip
Steering, Electric Power Steering
Suspension, Performance Handling
Transmission, 5-Speed Manual

Optional:

Ashtray and Lighter
NEW Audio System - RDS Stereo, CD, MP3 Playback, Aux Jack and USB port
NEW Performance Display - reconfigurable, lacated on a-pillar, replaces analog gage. (Coupe ONLY)
Sunroof
Spoiler, High Rise (Coupe ONLY)
NEW Spare Tire and Wheel not Desired, Sealant Kit Instead
NEW Tire, Spare, replaces Sealant Kit
Differential, Limited-slip
Emissions crap, random states
License Plate, Front



The whole spare tire thing is really confusing, if the sealant is standard why is the sealant and option as well, also, why would anyone want that unless they really wanted to shed 50 pounds off the curb weight.

I wish I knew what the performance gage looked like, that way I knew whether I wanted to pay for it or not.

Also, wasn't there a rumoured GPS system coming. Or was that a hoax?

One: What does it look like, the video won't load on my computer?

Two: That site crashed my computer and now my System32 links to my User Name's files has been broken and I have no Favorites, Desktop or Settings. Just a warning, might only be me.
