No, bidder will get PRODUCTION VIN #1, and spec the color, engine, and any options they want.

Lot Number 1316
Auction Scottsdale 2009
* Sale Price $385,000.00
Year 2010
Make CHEVROLET
Model CAMARO
Style "FIRST RETAIL PRODUCTION" COUPE

One very passionate Camaro enthusiast at the 2009 Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction will come away with the keys to the first regular retail production-built unit of Chevy's all-new, 21st Century Sports Car. This first Camaro built for regular retail production will have a VIN ending with #100001.

Chevrolet ceased production of the fourth-generation of their vaunted sports car in 2002. Four years later, Camaro appeared as a surprise concept vehicle at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The new production Camaro remains steadfastly true to that concept, with an eye-catching design reminiscent of the storied 1969 Camaro, but equipped with modern technology and a GM-estimated 27 MPG highway when equipped with the available V6 engine.

Importantly, the winning bidder will have the ability to spec and order their Camaro to their liking, choosing from several colors, V6 or V8 engines, a manual or automatic transmission, and various trim packages and free-flow options. The vehicle will be built on the first day of retail production -- scheduled for early 2009.

All proceeds from the sale will benefit the American Heart Association, a national voluntary health agency whose mission is: "Building healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke." The association's impact goal is to reduce coronary heart disease, stroke and risk by 25 percent by 2010.

Please join GM, Chevrolet, Barrett-Jackson and the American Heart Association in pursuit of this very worthwhile effort, and be the first to own Chevy's 21st Century Sports Car, the 2010 Chevy Camaro.

NOT. It will still have 5 miles on it. At 350K this car will be part of a collection.

this car will only increase in value

350k is not a bad deal

Re: 2010 #001 Camaro SOLD

increase in value? If they do, it wouldnt be for a a long time. But i doubt a DDed camaro would increase in value

Re: 2010 #001 Camaro SOLD

You would have to be retarded to daily drive production vin number 1. Even with miles on it, the fact that it's number 1 would multiply the value.

Re: 2010 #001 Camaro SOLD

I HIGHLY doubt this guy is going to DD this car; like FirebirdGT said, it'll most likely be part of a collection that gets taken care of immaculately, and probably almost never see road time. If he is going to DD this car, he is one of the biggest idiots in the world

Re: 2010 #001 Camaro SOLD

isnt the $350,000 just for the rights to buy the first car and the buyer has to put down the money for the actual car? And that the $350k is a tax write off?

Rick Hendricks bought it, the car will not be daily driven. It will sit, and remain a part of history.
