The Chevy Camaro muscle car was discontinued in the 2024 model year with no direct successor. However, despite its production ceasing in December of 2023, there are still a couple of stragglers on dealer lots. According to Chevy’s website, there are two brand-new 2024 Chevy Camaro models remaining for sale across the country.
One is located at Permian Chevrolet in Hobbs, New Mexico, and the other is at Tim Lally Chevrolet in Warrensville Heights, Ohio. Both are coupes in the 2SS trim, which means they’re both equipped with the hearty 6.2L V8 LT1 rated at 455 horsepower and 455 pound-feet of torque. However, they’re specced a little differently.
The one in New Mexico is finished in Summit White with a Jet Black interior and has a 10-speed automatic transmission. Some of the options include 20-inch gloss black wheels with red stripes, Magnetic Ride Control, a power sunroof, dual-mode performance exhaust, and a carbon fiber appearance cap on the shift knob. The total sticker price comes to $59,205.
The one in Ohio is a bit more of a driver’s car. It’s painted in Riptide Blue Metallic with a Jet Black interior and has the desirable 6-speed manual transmission. That’s not the only thing that makes it an enthusiast spec; it also has the SS 1LE package, which includes 20-inch satin graphite forged aluminum wheels with summer tires, Magnetic Ride Control, an electronic limited-slip differential, dual-mode exhaust, Brembo performance brakes, Recaro front seats, sueded steering wheel and shift knob, a front hood wrap, a front splitter, and a satin black blade spoiler. Additionally, it has a performance data and video recorder, sport alloy pedals, red seat belts, “SS” embroidery on the center console lid, and a carbon fiber appearance shifter cap. The sticker price of this one is $58,335.
We know which Chevy Camaro we’d pick: the blue one in Ohio is in a highly desirable specification for enthusiasts who might even track the car once in a while. That said, the white on in New Mexico is a tasteful cruiser, and the automatic transmission is forgivable in light of the V8, MagRide, dual-mode exhaust, and cool wheels.

Out of production for 18 months yet still some units available. Yes, so much demand for another Camaro. Maybe all the internet trolls begging for a new one should have actually bought one in the past.
Thank you! These over priced plastic boxes still on the lot.
I just wish they had built my sold order…………LT1 Nitro Yellow convertible with a manual…….waited 6 months and order never picked up……….still wonder how many more were in the same boat…….
These are not available, they are in the dealers personal collection.
Love our 2017 RS 1 LT, V6, A8(no issues since flush with new fluid), sun roof, Garnet Red Tintcoat, we bought for him new ($7k he had saved along with gift from Grandmother she gave to all grands for 1st car) in 2018. List $33,550 with discounts/rebates of $6500. Remember those days? 335 Net HP, 284 lbs/ft of torque & 30 plus mpg on the road. Now has 29K miles covered in the garage. $58 to $59k MSRP for these 2SS models. Another reason GM lost sales and killed a great car.
I love my 2024 V6. I could never afford a Vette, and I wanted RWD with great gas milage and this styling, which looks a little retro. I will never buy an EV. GM makes a great V6 and I couldn’t be happier.
May be unsold/untitled but no longer new. Ads say one has488 miles and the other 1227 miles. Dealer demos?
They are new. That’s just the distance from where the editor put their location to the dealership.
This is actually pathetic! GM has fkd around with the Camero until the public is actually sick of it….. & Obviously no one wants em.
You must be a real Camaro enthusiast. You don’t even know how to spell the name correctly.
Brilliant- NOT!
We still love our 2000 Camaro SS convertible. 350 engine with 4 speed automatic. Seems like so long ago …..
60 grand is some pretty thin air for a domestic pony car. Just ask Fird who’ watching 60k Mustang 5.0s gather dust on dealer lots. The impact of inflation and interest rates on the middle class who buys these cars cannot be understated. Poorer folks can’t afford one if these, the rich are headed straight to the BMW or Audi dealer. Get these cars back 40 grand and watch sales explode again.
That was part of the problem with the 6th gens in particular. They made the car SO good, but also so expensive, it moved the performance and price into BMW territory. There were quite a few former BMW owners on the 6th gen Camaro forums, but they also left many of the people that actually wanted them behind bc of price.
It was not expensive. The LT1 trim car was $35k with a six speed. GM refused to market it.
“They made the car SO good”
You’re kidding, right?? Perhaps mechanically (if you want to ignore the cylinder-deactivation), but the body was awful! When it debuted in 2009, I was SO glad that I had made the decision to buy the GTO in 2005 rather than wait for the “new” Camaro! The styling of the GTO, including the hood scoops, is SO much better, and it doesn’t have the “extra weight” that you can “see” in the Camaro. I can actually rest my left arm on the window sill when driving, thanks to the lower beltline, which also allows the top of the dash to be lower, and all windows to be taller. No visibility problems (except the rear quarter, as usual). And the interior materials in the GTO are WAY better than the Camaro was… high-quality leather seats standard (in multiple colors!), suede and “soft” plastics on the door interiors (unlike the cheap HARD plastic in the 2009 Camaro I looked at), I don’t feel like I am sitting in a “well” that I need to crawl out of because the GTO has a MUCH lower bottom door “sill”, and the whole body just feels “solid”. The instruments are “right-sized”, clearly labeled, and the backgrounds of the gauges are color-coordinated to the interior. And I haven’t even mentioned the SIZE of the rear (bucket) seats…. adults can actually be comfortable back there!
The early “concept” drawings that were available (Motor Trend, etc) in 2005 were enough for me to see the Camaro HIGH beltline, and with the addition of the 400hp LS2 in the 2005 GTO, my decision was made. When I later sat in that new 2009 Camaro, I knew I had made the right choice.
Congrats on your long discontinued heap of Australian “men”. Not even the Australians care much for their Holden coupe & instead flock to the Ute, commodore etc. You sound like a silly hater who has racked up 0 miles in a gen 6 and is judging 2 generations based on a poverty spec gen 5. Apples to cigarette lighter comparison, or in other words, a garbage comparison.
A Roadstah!
I have a 2010 Orange Camaro and just Love it wit the 6 speed it’s to bad GM NEVER advertised the Camaro on TV all i see is Honda and Toyota like crazy people that are not a real car like me don’t even no that Chevy made Camaros again in 2010 ITS A REAL REAL SAD THING TO NOT HAVE THEM ANY MORE….so we will see more MUSTANGS ON THE ROAD GREAT JOB GM👎🏻
I also have a 2010 Camaro but it is black inside and out. Started life as SS but has been updated to ZL1 clone. ZL1 20″ wheels, Aluminum 427 (LS7) ,6-spd manual, 700 hp. Would not trade it for the world!
Still an SS… started life as and is still an SS.
so cheesy…
Aluminum 427 and 700 HP are NOT cheesy.
It’s not just the $60k price tag plus tax that killed them but the cost to insure is over the top as well.
This is 100% not true.
Insurance on my 2021 Camaro SS is lower than my 2019 Chevy Malibu Premier.
High insurance cost is dependent on many variables. Chief amongst them are CREDIT,LOCATION,DRIVING HISTORY…sounds like a personal problem.
I had a 2011 V6 in the synergy green metallic color. Got complements galore. What GM did to the Camaro will go down as one of the worst treatments a major car manufacturer could do to a fine sports car. So sad.
TWO neat cars, no matter what! Now, the question of “WHY are they still unsold” might be operative. Bet it has to do with “availability charges”? Are the MSOs still open? Which can mean “no titled buyer”. The fact that BOTH of them “have miles on them” will hurt the value a bit, as “not completely NEW vehicles”, I suspect. Which might mean they only want MSRP + $20K rather than MSRP + $25K?
They don’t have miles on them. That’s the distance to where the dealership is in relation to where the editor put their location.
I love my 2018 SS 1LE. Sad to see there is no more. Screw EV cars, will never own one in my life time.
Can you send a photo of the ( NEW ) 2026 Chevy Camaro?
It’s easy to be enthusiastic about a Gen 7 Camaro. I am. It’ll likely arrive before this decade is over. But GM will disappoint most all of us in some way or another with what they serve up.
Look the last Camaro was the best version there ever was. It was fast, Handled great, rode nice and had available options only cars in the past could dream about.
But the pony car Formula is broken.
These cars were performance coupes built on RWD econocar platforms be it a Chevy 2, Falcon or Valiant. These were cheap car that got big engines and made for fast cheap fun.
Turn to today. What car is cheap? None. Malibu even with FWD was pushing $50K. The only low price models are things like a Trax that are built to a lower price point. No options to make it a performance model and if you did it would get expensive fast.
And before someone says they can make a base model. Well that won’t work either. #1 few would sell and #2 the options are where the money is made on these cars.
Yes Ford still sells the Mustang but it is more and more expensive and selling less and less models. They used to sell up to 600,000 units a year and now can’t hardly reach 50K units.
Ford has even tried to leverage the Mustang out on a $400K model that Ford does not even build. It is a Magna. build model and only the Mustang name is carried over for the most part.
Economics and regulations have driven the cars from out market. No one wants a small FWD car and they mostly first went to trucks. Now they are ok with FWD and now move to small SUV models as they hold more utility over a small FWD sedan.
It is all about what people can afford and what they need to do all in their lives. Many can’t afford a new car let alone a new third car just for weekends.
The best we can hope for is to park the Camaro name and not use it on a CUV and hope the market changes for the better to where the name can come back on a proper model.
Note too the C8 ate into Camaro sales too. For the same price of a good Camaro the C8 was there.
I wish it was different but we have to play the cards that are dealt.
Sorry, but the Malibu was not pushing $50k. 2025 Malibu 2LT (highest trim level) with Sport Edition Package, Extra cost Radiant Red tintcoat, Driver confidence and cruise package, and dual pane sunroof stickers at $35,735 including destination. Sure you can nickel and dime it up a little more with a couple dealer installed extras like illuminated bowtie or all weather floor mats, but still under $40k.
I mostly agree with you otherwise, but if the Camaro comes back they need to make it a more useful all around car. Sure some boomer and older gen x purists might balk, but they need AWD, better visibility and ingress/egress and an actual usable backseat and trunk. Chevy already has a two seater performance car in the Corvette, they don’t need two. Practicality sells in this market as many need one vehicle to fit every need or it won’t be considered, especially with younger buyers. I think there’s still a market for a sporty performance oriented car, but it needs to be more accessible in price and more versatile too. I wouldn’t be offended if they made a Camaro as an EV either, as the Cadillac sedans transition over to electric GM is not going to invest in a platform and factory just to build a low volume of ICE Camaros, and again the purists will balk at the thought, but there may even be a larger market there.
What you describe (AWD, better visibility and ingress/egress, usable backseat and trunk, practicality, etc.) is on the market TODAY….it is called the Chevy Blazer RS with the optional V6.
Feel a need to burn up some tires with AWD? It’s called the Blazer EV SS, with insane torque numbers.
(Hey, I wouldn’t BUY either one, as I am a V8 RWD coupe purist, but I am pointing out that the requirements you list have already been addressed.)
(You wrote: “These cars were performance coupes built on RWD econocar platforms be it a Chevy 2, Falcon or Valiant. These were cheap car that got big engines and made for fast cheap fun.”)
Right… it was a market niche. Never meant to be more than that.
Those of us who wanted fast sporty cars (bucket seats, console, hood scoops, stripes, good sounding exhaust) that were REAL cars opted for muscle cars instead (Chevelle SS, Pontiac GTO, Olds 442). Models based on real mid-size chassis/platforms. Yes, even after the regulations forced “right-sizing” of the mid-size cars, from 1979-1988 (first the B-Bodies, then the G-Bodies), and GM was still able to give us V8, RWD, and better handling than in the 1970’s, along with bucket seats, consoles, rallye wheels, spoilers and names such as Hurst/Olds, 442, Monte Carlo SS, Buick Grand National, etc.
Then the GM suits ruined it, with one of the General Managers proudly proclaiming in the mid-1980’s “there will be no more RWD cars!”… and somehow the car buying public was okay with that (I never was; I haven’t bought ANY!)… Market pressure by law enforcement and taxis forced GM to build the full-size V8 RWD sedans and wagons in the 1990’s… and only the Camaro and a couple of Cadillac sedans were able to somehow escape that edict.
In order to appeal to a larger market segment than just “pony cars”, GM was forced to morph the 2009 Camaro into a hybrid between a pony car and a mid-size muscle car. Trouble is, it failed to completely satisfy either of those camps.
I once looked at a car for my daughter that had over a 1000 mi. on the clock that was being sold as new. When I looked in the glove box and picked up the manual someone’s name had been written on inside the front cover but they obviously tried to white it out. When questioned about it they told me the original buyer had returned the car within the three day recession period and they had to take it back. I started to leave
when the sales manager approached me and offers another 3000 off the sticker. I told him I thought it would best If looked somewhere else. Be wary of a new car with more than 200 miles. Unless it was transferred from a distant dealership in a dealer to dealer swap.
Flood cars washed title
I’m glad I got my ’23 RS orange coupe back in Sept ’23 to go with my ’11 RS red convertible. I wanted a ’24 but saw the handwriting on the wall that most orders would never be built. I live in VA and found the ’23 in South Haven, MI. We worked the deal and I had them ship it to me. No problem and I’m completely satisfied. 🙂
I considered waiting to get a 2023, but in 2002 there was only one black Pontiac TransAm WS6 in Oklahoma, so ordered our 2022 Camaro 2SS early 2022 & had it by the fall 2022. We did keep our 2013 Camaro 2SS & sold our TransAm to a guy I used to work with.
Good ,,GM just lost all younger buyers
I don’t know if you know any younger buyers, but if any of them can even remotely afford a new car these days they are more interested in what kind of tech it has or how practical it is. Car culture is dead among younger generations. I bet if you took a poll on a college campus on whether they’d rather have a Camaro or a Trax, the majority would pick the Trax.
NOW THERE ARE NO VEHICLES FOR THE YOUNGER MARKET ,,,GO GOING
Lower case gM and Malaise era II strike again. Now except for a couple of overpriced and soon to be gone Cadillac sedans we have no cars and no other standard shift fun cars left in these sad times from this company. How wonderful
Farewell our v8 friend. Return soon, ya hear…
Factory-ordered a 6spd manual 4 cylinder turbo 2023 LS Camaro in Rapid Blue with black spider design on hood and black lip spoiler. The car is loads of fun, superb handling, and at an affordable price point – converting to USD I only paid around $27,500 for it (Pro-tip: you save thousands of dollars by not being scammed into the “technology package”).
With the news about CAFE standards being reduced crossing my fingers for a Gen 7 with manual transmission – these cars are a pleasure no matter their engine.
These are NOT available for sale, they are dealer owned for their personal collection.
