Hi!


My name is Tom and I am a supporter and original member of a wonderful non-profit charity called Buyers and Builders Meet and Greet (BBOMG). We first got together in November 2009 to show appreciation to General Motors employees who built the Camaro. The first year showing was approximately 50 participants and 40 cars and participants came from as far away as Missouri to Alberta.

How it all began... 
BBOMG had one goal - get the buyers of the Camaro in touch with the employees who built them. The first year, nobody was certain the future of GM or the Camaro and I felt a need, a calling.  For me to attend such an event was a first. I wasn't one of "those guys" who took time out of his week to participate in events...particularly for or about a car. I chose to go after having owned my Camaro for 6 months and was impressed with every aspect. I chose to go because I believed then, as I do now, that I made an awesome investment. I wanted to meet the men and women at the Oshawa plant who built my Camaro. I wanted to shake their hands and attending was an experience I will never forget. 

Since it's inception, BBOMG has grown from those 50 people to well over 450. Our main goal is giving back to the local community who hosts our events. Big Brothers and Big sisters of Oshawa/Whitby and St. Catherines, Ontario has received approximately $40,000 over the past 4 events. This year, BBOMG is headed to Detroit for its 5th year to show appreciation and tour the birthplace of the automobile....and of course, the Woodward Dream Cruise.

BBOMG contributes 100% of every penny raised from the charity dinner and the auctions to Big Brothers and Big Sisters. 100% of all proceeds are donated. Wonderful donations from local businesses, GM, local GM dealers and personal contributions are bid on or are raffled. In the past, BBOMG has received support and donations from Nurse Chevrolet, Martinrea, Camaro Z/28.com, Modern Camaro, Classic Chevrolet, Sparta Chevrolet, Newman Chevrolet. You can find all the details at BBOMG dot com.


So now to the personal aspect of the story... 
I was talking to my friend Michael earlier this month about the new 2014 Camaro. I was mentioning to him that I was thinking about trading in my Camaro, a car I never thought I would ever sell for any reason...or another Camaro. I told him I wanted to trade for a 2014 1LE in Inferno Orange and he said, "Um..by the way, GM is discontinuing the Inferno Orange Metallic paint after 2013."  In disbelief, I said a few choice words and had to check for myself. Disappointed, a feverish search began and after a week and a half of searching, I found the IOM Camaro that would replace her. The catch? The trade in value is $4000 less than the private party value. Thus I began to think...and think. 

Soon after I took delivery of my Camaro, Mike Judge, a General Motors Oshawa plant employee presented me with an Inferno Orange VIN specific lithograph that has been prominently displayed in my house and cherished greatly. This lithograph was awarded to Camaro enthusiasts who he believed were great ambassadors for the Camaro. What is so special about this litho? It just happens to have the signatures of the very men and women who built the Camaro in this auction - something that is not only rare and limited, but something which will only be more valuable as the years pass. I couldn't trade in MY Camaro and keep the litho...why? It belongs with the car and it would only be selfish of me not to pass it along. I informed Mike Judge of my plan to sell the Camaro with the litho and was ecstatic to receive his blessing.

I have made life-long friendships because of this VERY Camaro. Wonderful people who have given so much of their time and effort in order to foster better relationships between young men and women willing to donate their time to children who need mentoring. Thus comes the circular aspect of this auction. I became a better person because of a car because I have seen so many people believe in others all brought together because of this car. While it is bittersweet to see my Camaro go to a new owner, I believe a torch needs to be passed. I have valued every mile, every friendship and every smile from the children I have taken for rides and I find myself wanting to pass along something that has made me smile more than most things.  And not just because it is a car but because of the friendships I have made during the past 5 years. I sincerely hope this car can pass this same magic to the new owner.

I could have taken the easy (and financially beneficial) route and trade the car in or sell private party but I believe wholeheartedly the lithograph, the charity, the people and the story will push this Camaro over my reserve price, however slight that may be. I am choosing to incur expense to ensure the buyer gets this Camaro in the best condition possible. I do not want you to be disappointed at all. I will do the best I can to represent as best as possible.

With the purchase, you will get every piece of paper, build sheet, window sticker, purchase agreement, XM please come back letter and key fobs as I always intended this car to be collector car material someday.


Now to the car...
  • She is a custom ordered R6P 2010 Camaro 2SS LS3 6 speed with RS package, upgraded Inferno Orange interior, Inferno Orange engine cover, black hood stripe option and grey car cover (never used) 
  • She has only 20,100 miles on the odometer. Never been smoked in, never been intentionally driven in rain. NEVER seen snow or salt. Faithfully garaged from November to January. 
  • The front tires are original with 6/32 left the rear tires were replaced last September with 19,200 miles on the odometer. Original rear tires I still have with 4/32 left. I also have an NOS set of stock Pirelli P-Zero fronts that go with car. 
  • I did change the stock shifter to a Hurst short throw and have the original shifter in the Hurst box. 
  • Window tint was done in 2009 and is 15% rear and sides and 30% door glass. The original as delivered engine cover comes with in the GM box the IOM cover was in.
  • As far as maintenance, I have changed the oil 4 times since I have owned her. Once at break in with 889 on the odometer with supporting Blackstone labs oil analysis report. Since then the oil was changed at 4500, 9800 and 15,400 miles. She is due and will receive Mobil1 5w30 and Mobil1 filter prior to delivery. The air filter will be changed as well. 
  • At my expense, my Camaro will be delivered to a local GM dealer to be gone over as any dealer would prior to placing on the lot for sale. 
  • My reserve is $26,000 which is $4,200 less than NADA and Kelly Blue Book value.

This is where I hope my story will make a difference. EVERY penny over $26,000 will be donated to Big Brothers and Big Sisters BBOMG charity on August 18th 2013 in the names of the most dedicated men and women in Michigan- Detroit Police, Fire and EMS.  

Here's your opportunity to buy a well maintained car and make a difference in the life of a child. 

Good luck to all and happy bidding!

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
