The sixth-generation Camaro is driving off into the sunset and Chevrolet is celebrating its retirement with an all-new Collector’s Edition. Available on LT/RS, LT1, SS and ZL1 trims, the Collector’s Edition package embraces the Camaro’s original Panther code name. As part of this effort, the LT/RS, LT1 and SS have a unique Panther Black Metallic paint job.
That’s just the beginning as the
Collector’s Edition has Satin Black stripes, the front splitter from the 1LE
package, and the rear spoiler from the ZL1 package. Buyers will also find
20-inch Satin Black or polished forged wheels. Lastly, there’s unique front
fender script badging that integrates a panther into the ‘R’ in Camaro.
Interior updates are more modest and include black accents as well as a panther
on the steering wheel badge. They’re joined by special floor mats that feature
a laser-etched aluminum Collector’s Edition logo. As an added bonus, buyers
will receive a “welcome kit which contains two posters commemorating the Camaro
generations and the Collector’s Edition.”
Customers looking for a true collectible
can get the Camaro ZL1 Collector’s Edition, which features a Panther Black
Matte exterior. Besides looking menacing, the model is notable for sporting the
first matte paint job from the factory. The car also comes equipped with a
Black Metallic stripe, the front splitter from the ZL1 1LE, and the rear wing
from the ZL1 1LE. They’re joined by red brake calipers, black lug nuts, and a
serialized steering wheel badge.
The Camaro ZL1 Collector’s Edition will be
limited to 350 units and buyers will receive a unique Canfield Sport 45mm watch
from Shinola. It features Camaro and panther motifs as well as the same serial
number as their car. The Collector’s Edition package starts at US$ 4,995 although
it requires the US$ 1,950 RS package on the entry-level Camaro 1LT. This brings
the total price up to US$ 39,440 for the coupe, but that’s a drop in the bucket
compared to the US$ 88,690 Camaro ZL1 Collector’s Edition.
