Similar to our previous 93 Notch LX, this 1992 Z/28 is the final model year for the angular third generation f-body platform. Since the Corvette had gone to the new LT1 motor, many left over L98 parts found their way on to the 1992 Camaros in the factory, this one being no exception judging by the rough cast TPI runners.

The 5.7L V8 under the hood carried a noteworthy 245hp rating, but thanks to the similarly beefy torque rating it was only available with the automatic transmission. It makes up for the lack of gear-rowing potential with a stiff RPO-code G92 3.23:1 rear axle ratio. With only 5,319 miles this car is practically brand new and went for $44,000 in auction.

Only 55 of the automatic-equipped convertible pace cars were produced for this millennium-era F-body. The exterior was not the only part of the vehicle to receive special treatment, as the LS1 under the hood received some bolt-on SLP fun that bumped the rating up to 320hp. Nice examples of any late model fourth-generation Camaro is becoming difficult, and with the additional race pedigree an auction price of $11,550 makes it quite the deal.

From the beginning of the 80’s to the early 90’s if you found yourself lined up at a red light next to notch back 5.0L you might second guess your green light intentions. This 1993 model was the last hurrah for the long-lived fox body Mustang, soon to be replaced with the more “refined” SN95 platform.

The 5-speed manual, flawless white paint and 205hp 5.0L Windsor High-Output motor combines to check all the boxes for a wish list level notch. The 23,461 miles are just icing on the cake and likely the reason why this car from the 1990’s was able to fetch $24,200 on the block.

The 112hp 4A-GE naturally aspirated four-cylinder in this car does not strike fear on metrics alone. However, even in this automatic transmission model can potentially complete a high 16 second 1/4 mile, which would be competitive with a 5.0L Thunderbird of the same year.

The reliability of the Toyota motor with it’s Yamaha-designed DOHC head helped make 96 cubic inches more than the sum of it’s parts. Inside this sport package-equipped model, expect lively handling in spite of this being the first year the car did not come with a rear anti-roll bar. The scant 32,000 miles coupled with a single owner and impeccable condition helped bring this mid-engine classic to $13,750 at auction.

For a generation obsessed with Mk.4 Supras and R34 GT-Rs the American king of the hill is all but forgotten. Four inches wider and 200lbs heaver than the standard Corvette, it made up for the weight with it’s 375hp DOHC 5.7L V8, designed by Lotus and hand-assembled by Mercury Marine.

That power train improvement connected to the ZF 6 speed manual was good for an impressive 4.9 second 0-60 and 13.4 in the quarter mile. Lotus was also responsible for RPO-code FX3 suspension package with Bilstein parts shares more in common with a Porsche 959 than the Corvette’s pedestrian brethren. You can bet with Lotus assisting in the design of your flagship car, it will turn at least as well as it will accelerate.

With only 2,985 miles on the clock this car had a buy-it-now price of $35,000.
