Re: So what are real world prices for a 9C1 and 9C3?

Purchased my 2011 9C1 new with 47 miles on odometer in October 2013 for $24995 plus deal on GM extended warranty. Stored it all winter, back on road in May and just hit 1400 miles. What a great car. We are all very lucky to own these rare gems.

Re: Carpet

The 2011 9C1 I bought new in October had rubber flooring from factory. I negotiated replacement with GM factory carpet (black) with purchase and sale agreement. Matching set of front/rear carpeted mats included. Much nicer look and a bit less road noise. Good luck.

Re: New PPV 9C1 Owner - Some Questions

For whatever this is worth, I had the Caprice in storage all winter and picked it up in early May. The odometer had about 750 miles on it. I have 1000 miles on it now and have not smelled any burned oil odor at all. My brother works at a Chevy dealer and reported similar odor issues on 6.0 and 6.2 l...

Re: Rear window switches on 9c1....

The dealer reactivated rear window switches and rear interior door handle operation on my 2011 9C1. I had them include this as part of sale when purchased new with 50 miles on odometer in October 2013. Good luck.

Re: Lot Rot?

If it has rubber flooring you might negotiate having dealer install factory carpeting - I did. Check rear quarter window trim - some are loose from factory. I bought one in October and negotiated a GM extended warranty. Mine is a 2011 9C1 and had around 50 miles on the odometer. I made them put it o...

The set of factory carpeted floor mats (front and rear) has label on plastic - Part No. 9222516OE "WM LHD M/EAST CAPRICE LS LTZ SS, ONYX".

Hope that is helpful.

Re: Floor Mats

In reply to Humzila question about correct floor mats, when the dealer replaced the rubber flooring with factory carpeting, a set of four (4) carpeted floor mats came with package. They were labeled "Holden - ME Caprice - Caprice SS - Caprice LTZ". Dealer should be able to order them.

Re: New member checking in

Did your Caprice PPV come from Mirak Chevrolet? Got mine from nearby dealer in Greater Boston area. Mirak had two of them, but they went pretty quickly. I had the dealer replace rubber flooring with factory carpeting as part of deal on the 2011 PPV I bought in October. Looks much better with carpeti...
