Chevrolet has released the 2020 Chevrolet Camaro Heritage Edition at the 2020 Tokyo Motor Show. The model will be exclusive to the Japanese market, and flaunts a host of exclusive features that help set it apart from other, pedestrian Camaros. According to the Chevrolet Japan website, only 65 units of the Camaro Heritage Edition will be built; 30 LT RS models, 20 SS models, and 15 convertible models.
All 65 units will be finished in Rally Green Metallic, which Chevrolet says is a symbol of the heritage of Camaros built from 1967 to 1969. As such, they’ve decided to revive the “trendy, dark green color.” The dark green hue will be accented by pearl white rally stripes. Other touches include 5-spoke gloss back wheels, which get outline with a red stripe for SS models.
The actual Camaro Heritage Edition model will feature gloss black wheels.
Another Camaro Heritage Edition-specific feature will be a Kalahari interior, though this touch is only for convertible models. Pricing for the special edition model is as follows:
- Camaro LT RS Heritage Edition – ¥ 5,650,000 (about $51,400 USD)
- Limited to 30 units
- Camaro SS Heritage Edition – ¥ 7,480,000 ($68,050 USD)
- Limited to 20 units
- Camaro Convertible Heritage Edition – ¥ 6,450,000 ($58,675 USD)
- Limited to 15 units
While we aren’t fans of the red wheel stripe on a green car, we’ll admit a 2020 Chevrolet Camaro Heritage Edition convertible model would be quite a coveted vehicle due to its exclusivity. The question is, will this convince enough buyers to fork over the extra cash?
What say you? Is the Camaro Heritage Edition a failed attempt to fluff up average transaction prices, or is it a sincere effort to pay homage to the Camaro’s rich history? How’s the Camaro Heritage Edition compare to the Shock And Steel Edition? Give us your thoughts in the comment section below.

No idea what GM is trying to do with these ‘special’ edition Camaros exclusively for foreign markets when they never even bother to advertise that carline in the US.
smh………………………..
You can build one of these on the Chevy Camaro website even down to the Kalahari interior on the coupes and black wheels with the red stripe. I don’t see what significance they say it’s for Japan orders.
Will this car be configured in Right Hand Drive given that they drive on the left in Japan?
