is getting ready to say goodbye to the . To commemorate the occasion, is bestowing the — the final model year — with a special Collector’s Edition version of the car. The package gives cars a new black paint, special wheels, and a number of other extras. It’ll be available as either a coupe or convertible on the 1LT, LT1, 1SS and ZL1 trims, but if you really want to go all out, the kicks things into a higher gear.
The regular — which is available for different prices depending on trim (1LT: $4995, LT1: $5495, 1SS: $5995) give your o special Panther Black metallic paint, black stripes, 20-inch satin black wheels (polished forged wheels are an option), the front splitter from the 1LE performance package and the ZL1’s rear spoiler.
But, I hear you. You’re no regular . You want the best and most powerful Camaro you can buy before it’s no more. Well, it’s time for you to upgrade to the ZL1 . For $14,995 (yes, nearly 15 grand), you get Panther Matte Black paint, red brake calipers, black lug nuts, a serialized badge telling you which number car you own out of the total run of 350 vehicles, and all the other goodies from the regular Collector’s Edition (but a few are already included on the standard ZL1). If all that wasn’t quite enough for you – Chevy is also throwing in a 45 MM Shinola watch. That’s too big for a watch, but hey, I’m not the one buying it.
In terms of the “Panther-ness” of it all, Chevy is highlighting the fact it harkens back to the Camaro’s original code name: Panther. The automaker is integrating Panther graphics into Camaro badges on the doors and steering wheel. It also incorporates special floor mats and a welcome kit with two Camaro posters. How lovely.
A 1LT Camaro with the package is going to run you $39,440. LT1s will cost $47,395. After that, the 1SS will cost 49,890. And finally, the big daddy ZL1 will cost you $88,690 — not including the Gas Guzzler Tax. Just as a quick note, if you want the package on 1LT or LT1 trims, Chevy also requires you to add the RS package. A small price to pay for all this fun.
The Collector’s Edition isn’t the only change coming to the Camaro lineup. For the 2024 model year, Chevy is dropping the 2.0-liter inline-four base engine. That means you’ll have to choose either the 335 horsepower 3.6-liter V6, 455 horsepower 6.2-liter V8 or the big daddy 650 horsepower supercharged 6.2-liter V8 found in the ZL1. Base price is also up a little bit to $32,495 for the LT coupe and $38,495 for the LT convertible.
Goodnight, sweet prince.
