Supposedly,
Less than 200 of these will be built & I just happened to stumble upon one today at a dealership....:redface:

Was there a sticker on the window? If so, go ahead and tell. I'm sitting down...

Yes there was but I made the conscious choice to NOT look at it....:d

Nothing you do to the new Camaro will stop it from being absolutely HIDEOUS. The new GTO is just as bad.

It should be a crime to turn such a beautiful car (late 60's) into what they did in the 80's - present. My friend's dad used to have a 68 Camaro SS that was in pretty much mint condition. That thing was sexy.

The best looking "new" muscle car is the Challenger. The Mustang takes a close second.

lol, just sayin its a very ugly car. The photography is nice though. The colors and reflections make the second shot a lot more interesting than most other car photos.

Some of us think the new Challenger and the new Mustang are pretty darn ugly too. It's all subjective.

Nice pic.

Then thing that gets me about these "Limited edition" cars is that they generate profit for the dealer, that is for sure. But 10 yrs from now they won't be worth any more than a similar car from the same year with similar options, though they will probably have lower mileage as the owner thinks it is a "collectible" and won't use it as a daily driver. The collectibles usually turn out to be the ones you never think of as collectible when they were new!

Sorry, but I have to disagree a bit with you & Wombat - I'd say these are definitely collectibles ;)

I was watching the Mecum Auto Auction the day before yesterday and they had a 69 Camaro Indy 500 Pace Car...not a replica, a real one...roll across the auction floor. It went for 70 thousand.

I bet if I invest all my money in limited edition 2010 cars, I'm going to regret it. ;)

Say it anyways, but keep it civilized. ;)

Limited Edition Pace Cars seem to do quite well at the respected Barrett-Jackson auctions..;)
