The fourth-generation Chevy Camaro that came out for the 1993 model year modernized GM’s muscle car while sticking to its tried-and-true formula. 2002 was the final model year for the F-body Camaro, and a very special example with only 24 miles on the clock is for sale at AutoSport in Indiana, Pennsylvania.
This low-mile, like-new Camaro is a 2002 Chevy Camaro Z28 SS 35th Anniversary Edition. The 2002 model year marked 35 consecutive years of the Camaro, which is still the standing record since the car’s been discontinued twice since then. The 35th Anniversary Edition is an appearance package with a checkerboard motif in its over-the-top stripes that emulates the Penske-Sunoco stock TransAm racecars from the 1960s and 1970s.
A service entry on the Carfax from October 3rd, 2024 confirms that the claimed odometer reading of 24 miles is the true mileage of the car. It also confirms that it’s a one-owner car registered in Pennsylvania since new.
Of note, SS was not a factory trim of the Camaro from 1996-2002. These models left the factory in the Z28 trim and were transformed into SS models by SLP Engineering. For the 2002 model year, upgrades included a 325-horsepower version of the 5.7L V8 LS1 under the hood, a power steering cooler, a functional hood scoop, upgraded exhaust and suspension, a unique spoiler, and 17-inch wheels. Of course, it also had liberally-applied SS badging inside and out.
Some of the other options shown on the window sticker – which shows a total vehicle price of $32,715 – include an automatic transmission, removable roof panels (T-tops), acceleration slip regulation, and an electric rear window defogger. It’s hard to speak for the car’s condition without seeing it in person, but it appears to be tremendously clean inside and out and in bone-stock condition.
Although $44,900 is a high asking price for any fourth-gen Chevy Camaro, it’s about right for this model. In recent years, there have been multiple examples of clean, low-mile 2002 Camaro Z28 SS 35th Anniversary Edition models selling on auction sites in the mid-$30k range. The remarkably low, two-digit mileage, one-owner status, and truly like-new condition of this model make it one of the most valuable fourth-gen Camaro models anywhere.

That was one ugly Camaro. That caused it to temporarily die as a nameplate.
Beautiful car. I am one who actually likes the look of this car. It has aged well over time for me! Now, back in 2002, I wasn’t a huge fan of the styling. Not worth $44k though. I’d give $20k for it especially when a 2019-2024 with 10 speed/455 HP would dust this thing.
To own a uniquely rare, unmodified; only 24 miles: If i had the funding: i’d give the owner $60,000 for it! reason being: Automatic, two-toned grey interior! I’d treat it as an ultra rare discontinued sports car w/respect, not race it as other high ego’d guy’s would do!
