CamaroFacts

Every Chevrolet Camaro, 1967 to 2024

What was built each year, how many, and what the codes on the car mean. Figures come from GM's own paperwork wherever it exists. Where good sources disagree, you see both numbers.

A disputed French-slang story, a 14-city press conference, and a line that stuck.

  1. , First generation

    The body-styles table gave 176,813 Sport Coupes for 1968, which with 20,440 convertibles did not add up to its 235,147 total. The 1968 page had carried the same figure until September 25. Both now give 214,707, the figure in the 1968 kit's header.

  2. , 1993 Camaro

    The 1993 page and the fourth-generation page called the Sainte-Thérèse plant new. It dated from 1965 and was refitted for the 1993 car, and both pages now say so.

  3. , 1993 Camaro

    The 1993 page and the fourth-generation page called the Z28 the most powerful Camaro since the 1971 big blocks, a claim no source backed. The 1993 page now gives Chevrolet's own wording, the most powerful regular-production Camaro ever, and the fourth-generation page no longer makes the claim.
