The sunken headlights, pointed nose and bubble greenhouse on the early fourth-generation Camaro recalls images of fighter jet fuselages. This anniversary model with the typical orange and white paint scheme obscures that image some, but makes up for it with a mean 340hp LT4 engine in place of the factory 275hp LT1.

A G92 performance axle RPO in turn makes up for the 4L60E automatic. The tri-color tail lights that would be a staple of the later models were first found on these 1997’s and are a welcome addition to the overall cars exterior. The Anniversary package, 7,091 miles and pristine condition make this optispark actually fire to the tune of $17,050.

Before the emergence of the Nissan 280zx there was the 280z. Named for it’s L28E 2.8L inline 6 SOHC which claims a 148hp rating. With a manual transmission less than 150hp was more than enough for a sporty six-cylinder in the late 1970s. However, this fair lady is equipped with the lackluster 3-speed automatic. It makes up for this deficiency with clean body lines and pure Japanese sports car charisma. A 3.55:1 final drive ratio doesn’t hurt either, helping to propel the handsome Panasport racing wheels and this car’s final price to $23,100.

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.
