25th Anniversary — the third generation says goodbye

A Heritage Edition, the biggest 1LE year, and the 50th Trans-Am win.

The third generation's farewell brought the 25th Anniversary Heritage Edition (double hood/decklid striping, a callback to the 1969 stripe treatment), the biggest 1LE year (705 — more than the previous four combined), and the milestone 50th SCCA Trans-Am victory. It also closed out Camaro production at Van Nuys before the fourth generation consolidated at Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec.

The powertrain and identification notes below preserve configuration and model-year boundaries rather than treating every 1992 Camaro alike. Ratings use the measurement convention of their period, and visual cues are only a starting point: the VIN, factory labels, drivetrain identifiers, and surviving documentation should agree.
