@@Tywild327Clapped out? No way, not unless you’re living somewhere where people are of the “I know what I’ve got” mentality or are just upmarking at a dealership like crazy. I see a lot of high mileage (100k+ miles) 5th gen 1SS and 2SS coupes and convertibles going for around $16-25k; obviously with the later year models costing a bit more. Most 5th gen RS’ models 🎉that are genuinely high mileage or “clapped out”, at least with a clean title; those still rake in anywhere from under $10k to maybe $18k tops. And the ZL1 and Z28 (obviously) are still appreciating in value. I personally have a 2010 2SS LS3 coupe, and I would’ve personally opted for a 2013, for the 10-13 chassis and 14-15 goodies.

My favorite Camaro is the 4th Gen 1993-1997 with the LT1 and a 6 speed. The prices are crazy for one in decent shape though

BETTER LOOKING THAN THE CURRENT MODEL.

Holden is a subsidiary of GM since 1931

benefits: usually the filter is an open air element, meaning its not in a intake box. the filter is usually routed down low away from the heat of the engine so you get cooler denser air which equals more power, makes an awesome sound as the revs rise. Downside: If you hit a puddle or drive in the rain theres a chance you can suck water into your engine which can be pretty bad
