Yes, those Camaros seem to be nearly extinct. I remember in high school (1993-1997), there were still a lot of first-gen basic cars in the weekly Auto Trader and Tradin' Times. Going rate for a drivable car was $4-5K. I was poor and had a max of $2500 to work with on my best days. I wasted any money I could make on engineering school at Northwestern. Of course, all those cars had rust or rust repairs in the quarters and fenders by then (unkind Chicago climate), but they were drivable. Still never achieved 69 Camaro ownership 27 years later!

Who remembers the eager anticipation of going to 7-11 early on Thursday morning to get the new issue of Auto Trader??
