Saying Goodbye To The Chevy Camaro: Here's when it will be back

- The first generation of the Chevy Camaro hit the showrooms in 1966 as a 1967 model and ran thru 1969. This model came as a two-door convertible or coupe model featuring rear-wheel drive and multiple engine options. The most common engines featured a 230-cubic-inch engine with 140 horsepower and the much stronger 396-cubic-inch option with an output of 375 horsepower.
One of the highlights of the first generation was the pace car, which led the Indianapolis 500 in 1967.
Introduced on February 26, 1970, the second-generation Camaro was produced through the 1981 model year, with cosmetic changes made for the 1974 and 1978 model years. The car was heavily restyled and became somewhat larger and wider with the new styling.
The 1980 and 1981 Z28 models included an air induction hood scoop with an intake door that opened under full throttle.
The third-generation Camaro was produced from 1981 (for the 1982 model year) until 1992. These were the first Camaros to offer modern fuel injection, Turbo-Hydramatic 700R4 four-speed automatic transmissions, five-speed manual transmissions, 14-, 15- or 16-inch road wheels, a standard OHV 4-cylinder engine,[16] and hatchback bodies. The cars were nearly 500 pounds (227 kg) lighter than the second-generation model.
The IROC-Z was introduced in 1985 and continued through 1990. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Regulations required a CHMSL (Center High Mounted Stop Lamp) starting with the 1986 model year. For 1986, the new brake light was located on the exterior of the upper center area of the back hatch glass.
The fourth-generation Camaro debuted in 1993 on an updated F-body platform. It retained the same characteristics since its introduction in 1967: a coupé body style with 2+2 seating (with an optional T-top roof) or convertible (reintroduced in 1994). The standard engine from 1993 through 1995 was a 3.4 L V6, then a 3.8 L V6 was introduced in 1995.
The Camaro received a complete redesign and new platform in 2009 for the 2010 model year and fifth generation. This is pretty much what most of you younger viewers are used to seeing. Concept
The new body used styling cues from the 1969 Camaro, including the grille, roof styling, quarter windows, and side trim. Unlike the 1969 model and the 2006 concept, the production model's quarter windows were fixed and hid a thick B-pillar behind the glass.
Although not in continuous production for the entire period, the 2012 model year marked the 45th anniversary of the Camaro and this was commemorated with a model available only in "Carbon Flash Metallic" paint. This edition Camaro also included a unique stripe package, red, white, and blue interior stitching as well as 45th edition exclusive 20-inch wheels.
On May 16, 2015, Chevrolet introduced the sixth generation Camaro at Belle Isle Park in Detroit for the 2016 model year. The launch, complete with previous generation Camaros on display, coincided with the vehicle's upcoming 50th birthday.[31]
The 2016 Camaro weighed 200 lb (91 kg) less than its predecessor. Over 70% of the sixth generation's architectural components are unique to the car and are not shared with any other current GM product.
For the 2017 model year, the 1LE performance package returns to the Camaro. The package builds off the success of the previous-generation 1LE, offering increased handling and track performance. In response to customer demand, Chevrolet offers two distinct 1LE packages, for both V6 and V8 models, each visually distinguished with a satin black vinyl wrapped hood and specific wheels.
For the 2019 model year, the Camaro received a facelift, with the LS, LT and SS models gaining a new set of LED headlights and revised fascia designs. The SS also received these upgrades, and also gained a new "polished black grille" which was received very negatively. The rear fascia also received a massage, gaining new split headlights which were colored red on the LS and LT and a unique clear lens on the SS and ZL1. The ZL1's front end remained unchanged, but gained a new set of spoilers.
Unfortunately, sales began to decline in the last 10 years, and have really declined since 2020 and so GM has decided to pull the plug on production just as they did between 2003 and 2009. Will some of us see it come back in our lifetime? Only time will tell. And so the story ends with the Ford Mustang is once again left alone and as the best selling sports car in the U.S. Chevy will stop production of the Camaro at the end of 2024. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

I rode on the Ford exhibition, I was 7 and in heaven. It was spectacular,
I always wanted to have a 2nd Gen. Camaro since I first visited the USA the first time in 1990 as an 18 year old boy. I was fascinated by the looks, in my mind they were the coolest looking cars ever - but to get one in Germany was basically impossible for a young dude with no money. After 33 years I finally could fulfill my dream and now I´m the proud owner of a beautiful 1979 Camaro. Just looking at it sitting in the garage gives me a smile every time!
Nice! My first car was a 76 Camaro ls 305. Great, reliablr lil car! Had to because of rust
I have a 71 28!! Love it
One of the slowest Camaros ever built. Slowest would be the 4 cylinder 3rd gen.
@@CamaroAmx That’s why I put a built 383 and four sp. in mine.
@@hoppes9658 everything can be fixed.
Great informative video!! Sad to see The Camaro stopping production agaiiiiin!! Give credit to Ford for continuing production and keeping the V8!!!!!
I had a '68 - best looking Camaro, but now I would like to have a 2015 Z/28.
68 rs convertible
My first car was a 77 Camaro Type LT Rally Sport, and I really liked that car. I went on to purchase a 94 Z28, a 2010 LT1, and I currently own a 2010 SS. All these cars were manual transmissions. I hated the 98 facelift and felt it eventually led to the first cancelation. Likewise with the 6th Gen, I feel the front end styling got worse every year, and now it's gone once again. I'll be keeping my 2010 SS until the day I can no longer drive!!!
I once had a 1986 Camaro Sports Coupe I loved back in the days. Those IROC races with identically prepared IROC-Z race cars were awesome races.
I'm a lifelong GM guy but honestly never cared for the 2010 to current Camaro's and don't think they ever surpassed the modern Mustang in coolness. My favorite Camaro's are 2nd gen models.
Danny, you and your brother's content is so entertaining, I believe it would be worthy of a television production!! I was born in 1965 and for sure one of your biggest fans. Spread the word subscribers about this channel and how great the content really is~!!!!!
The concept car looks good back in 2006
Camaros has been putting mustangs back in their stalls since 1967 my 69 RS Camaro will always be here as long as I’m above ground 😎
As an owner of a 3rd gen Camaro Z28 as well as a 5th gen Mustang GT, the discontinuation of the Camaro is terrible news. This current generation of Camaro is such a fantastic vehicle, it's mind-blowing to me that anyone looking for a serious performance car in this range would buy anything else. Congratulations to the smart ones that did. The rest of you, ehh not so much I think. In the meantime enjoy the view of the Camaro's taillights and exhaust fumes.
I sat in the latest generation Camaro at an auto show, and could barely see out the windshield! The designers kept making the windshield and the side windows narrower and narrower. It might look cool from the outside, but I bet it turned off a lot of potential buyers!
I enjoyed this video,
The 3rd gen Camaro was such a beautiful design. I still love it. GM made a huge mistake in building the cars as inexpensively as possible, hoping to make it back on constant repairs. I had a friend who bought a silver iroc z in 1986, within the year he stated it was in the repair shop more than it was out, and offered to sell it for free just to take over the monthly payments. Maybe one of the many modern custom car shops will take it upon themselves to recreate this in a quality way. It'd be great to tear up a racetrack with this design and a true race car underneath, like the old trans am cars. And be able to take it to the grocery store just for fun.
The Mustang sports car, the Beatles Pop Band and the Rolling Stones Rock Band all arrived the same year...WOW!
We went to the '64 Fair. I bought a '69 Mach 1 428cj 6 years later in 1970. I dreamed about a Mustang for 6 years. My brother wasn't as excited. He bought a new '68 Camaro RS 327C.I.D.
In comparison, the handling and braking on my 70 Mach 1 were terrible. But it was fast. The interior was awesome. The chin spoiler, rear tail wing, rear window louvers and hood pins were definitely cool and head turning. But l was much happier trading it for an AMC 1972 AMX Javelin 401C.I.D., which l kept for 175,000 miles.
In one form, or another -- it'll be back!
I wanted one when I got older. Too bad I’ll likely never get the opportunity unless I buy used
7:14 third generation is my favorite! It looks like a car in San Andreas video game !
First off Grest posting just love cars , n pickups and you put it all together and even add the commercial of that time too. 👍👍👍👍
Back in the early '80's I bought a '64 1/2 real cheap , but it had been turned into a Tijuana special , was in process of trying to put it back like new when I sold it to help out the family , I really didn't need the car it was just a project for me..
Didn't they have T-Tops in the '80's...?? For some reason I'm thinking they did but I may be wrong. They just don't seem to make cars today that had the style the cars had from the 60's --> 80's did they just looked kool 😎..
Thanks again for the posting 👍😎🍻✌️👋
The camaro had t-tops in the 70-2000’s. The t-top was introduced as an alternative to convertibles. Detroit got away from factory convertibles in the 70s due to government regulations with crash testing. The government wanted to introduce tougher roll over standards, which convertibles could never pass. T-tops were a work around that. The Firebird, Mustang and a few other cars that should had convertibles came with t-tops. The government regulation got nixed at the last minute and t-tops had become popular so they kept making them. Plus they were cheaper and easier to build than convertibles. It wasn’t until the late 80s that convertibles returned from the factory. Prior to that there were companies that would turn your car into a convertible. By the mid 80s, the factory was hiring them to make official convertibles. By the late 80s convertibles were done at the factory.
@@CamaroAmx
WOW ...!! Kool and thanks for sharing that.. I do know if you do a convertible job yourself it weakens the structure of the car not so bad if it had a frame but the unibody came into production in the late 70's and if you did that to a unibody the car would fold up in the middle when wrecked.. I learned about unibodys first hand by building hot rod out of 72 Vega dropped in 350srt block and well it twisted body had to crawl in n out of windows eventually 🤣🤣🤣.. Good speaking with you and for sharing 😎🍻✌️👋
@@kylebrown6951 that’s why all convertible cars are specially reinforced from the factory.
@@CamaroAmx
Yes sir you're right about that there but I knew a guy that did his own convertible himself looked great n all but his wife wrecked it and well insurance wouldn't pay out on it due to his modification 😲🤨😉
I was a little before you twins. I was born April 19th 1964. Hitting the big 60 in a few weeks. I also have my 1989 Iroc Z since it was new. I will never get rid of it.
Hello Mr Boca!!
Totally glossed over all the best and rarest cars made in the first generation. The RS/SS and introduction of most produced engine ever the 350 small block. The Z/28 and the legendary dz302, the COPO and yenko 427 big blocks, and the rarest of them all the 69 produced 1969 ZL1 all aluminum 427 big block and probably the baddest muscle car ever made with the hemi cuda. And the multiple winning seasons on the trans am series.
i had a 89 camaro RS 305 that i swapped in a 350 (wished i still had it) and a 1996 Z28. they are fun cars, kind of sad to see it go again. i have 2 kids now, so i have something with a bigger back seat. i have a subaru crosstrek AND i have a 2003 bonneville SSEi, still has a big enough back seat. you cant take all my toys away LOL. the bonneville has the usual pulley swap, PCM themostat deal. its' almost as quick as my Z28. i would love to own another 3rd or 4th gen but it seems like even they are creeping up in price, and this economy is hot garage. cant afford to do anything anymore.

It will be back
Superb video! I had 3 Camaros and loved every one of them! Thanks for starting my day in such a grand way!
chevy had the 1960.-64 bucket seat monza coupe first than came mustang 64.5 ,than the camero ,what is a pony ?compact horse ? rode in all of them my favs 66 corsa convertible , 66 mustang fast back , 68 Camaro rs convertible
No mention of it's most performance earlier models SS, Z28 ZL1 ??
It's sad that chevy is not going to make the Camaro after 2024.
Back in the day where I'm from, all the hot girls drove the IROC-Z's
The car was almost Panther.
Hey folks > DIDN'T this "used to be the BOCA Brothers"?
Sure was, they never quite explained the name change? Sure, hope they read this and give us a little background on the name change!
@madmike2624 : The brothers explained everything in a post in the community section a few months ago. To make it quick and easy, they just wanted a name that better fit the videos they make.
I have a 2016 SS with a high speed chip and exhaust. 555 HP. Fast and fun.
Not paying attention to the automotive news? There are spy shots of a new Camaro. At best it may take a year or 2 off but it looks like the Camaro will be back.
The Mustang wins ! The transformers character is a Camaro a bumblebee
I am going to miss the Challenger. 😢😢😢😢😢😢.
Shame Cuda not been reintroduced by dodge seeing that Plymouth is no longer around. Too many people want the SUVs.
The Cuda was supposed to come back in the 80s as a twin to the Shelby Charger 2.2l turbo. They even made a prototype and presented it to the board. However Shelby got it cancelled. And that was the last time the Cuda was ever thought of again as a new car.
No loss. Trailer park dwellers will just stick with pickup trucks~
Mustang is the winner in 2024 ! Dodge never redesign the challenger !
For the second time
If you and stop and think about it Because of the Ford Mustang is the reason why the Went into production the Ford mustang is the same reason the Camaro stop production
Chrysler made a big mistake by canceling the LX rwd Charger/Challenger/300 platform. GM is doing the same thing now by canceling the Camaro. Only Ford gets it by keeping the Stang alive in V8 form. Note that their EVs aren't selling worth spit.
The charger (as a 2-door and 4-door with EV and twin turbo 6 cylinder power) is returning.
Yes the Camaro won't return again. Can anyone tell me how much for an '05 Camaro?😊
I never liked the current gen Camaro. It looks like a chop-top job; huge slab sides with a tiny greenhouse that's way too small for the car
I am related to Louise Chevrolet and to bad I am not in charge of GM because all I would make is sports cars because that is what Louise Chevrolet wanted back in the day and Ford mustang would not be able to keep up with them
60 and 70s cameras better than mustang but 80's 90's and onwards??
Camaro should not be stop the first time in 2002 now there doing it again this is bs
It’s coming back. There are spy photos of a new Camaro
The Camaro died in 1974.
Why can't I tell if this is AI or someone real?
Welcome to America,,,, Please buy a Toyota,,, no, we don’t have any transit systems outside of New York.
Time-stretching syllables, a new use for ai? Slow speech to train slow thinkers?
camaro gone.... the trans-am gone,,,, and we know the mustang is going out too....sucks!!!
Good riddance to a piece of crap build quality. Ford just continues to kick their butt!
pitiful fords
Production for the 2024 Camaro ended December 2023.
If the Camaro comes back as an electric sports car it will fail, big time.
