“Hotter than Texas chili” says a magazine ad for the Chevrolet Camaro. Chevrolet continued: “What’s so great about the Z28? Everything. Styling, performance, comfort.” The car was promoted for its “boiling shape.” Is this car really as spicy as promised? Might want to buy this and find out:

“Without a doubt, it is one of the best Z28 Camaro convertibles of its time,” the listing reads. “This is a 31 year owner car with the original window sticker, all books, receipts, keys and a total of 35,000 miles from new. “The car is very impressive both inside and out, And all in colors befitting a performance car. Red paint, red leather upholstery and even red alloy wheels provide a consistent theme throughout the exterior.

Introduced in 1982, the third-generation Camaro and its F-body sibling, the Pontiac Firebird, were designed by Jerry Palmer. In 1974, he was named chief designer of Chevrolet. In addition to the third generation Camaro, Jerry is also known for his design of the C4 Corvette and Chevrolet Beretta. In 2000, he was inducted into the Corvette Hall of Fame.

Like most sports cars, the Camaro is a popular tuning platform, which makes it impressive that the car hasn’t suffered any damage in over 3 years. The seller says: “This car drives as you would expect from a car, has been maintained to a strict standard and has never been driven in the rain or any inclement weather.”

With the arrival of the third-generation Camaro, the 1992 model year is also significant because it was the last Camaro produced at GM’s Van Nuys, California, assembly plant. Interestingly, the last 1992 Camaro was a red Z28 coupe. It was built on August 27, 1992, and bears the signatures of assembly line workers. I wonder where that car is today!

If your automotive taste buds need something spicy, maybe a red Camaro convertible will satisfy your cravings. “Just maintained – ready to be the centerpiece of the new owner’s garage,” the listing concludes.

Asking price is $24,500 or best offer.
