I'm not as big a vert fan these days as I used to be, but I remember where I was exactly, when I saw my first 3rd gen vert in a show room. Would have been around 1983. I was blown away by how beautiful the car looked with the top down. I still consider that version to be one of the most beautiful Camaros ever made.

I seem to even recall what they were asking for it - $11K. I could definitely be wrong on that; it was a long time ago.

So minus the buyers fee pretty much still a 40k car. Btw it went through mecums in the spring after being bought on BAT earlier this year and didn't sell.

A pretty fair price for a nearly new 5th Gen. For better or worse there are so many special editions of our Camaros that collector value may take a while to materialize. I'd still rather pay $40 K for a real low mile 5th Gen over new prices for the 6th. Big bucks (close to $100 K) for some of the top models. I'm a fan of the new ZL1s but NOT THAT MUCH!

There was a couple of Copo's that hammered way south of 100k which I thought was interesting.
