1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
Low mileage, highly optioned, first year IROC-Z in the rare color Silver Metallic. 30,500 miles, LB9 305 Tuned Port Injection in it's inaugural H.O. camshaft version (mandatory 700R 4-speed automatic transmission for that engine), T-Top with roof console, Conteur interior, graphic equalizer cassette stereo - arguably on of the most collectible examples of a 3rd gen Camaro. PW, PDL, tilt wheel, cruise, fresh tires, local one owner car that has spent most of it's life in a 5 car climate controlled shrine of a car garage.
Here's the negatives: the driver's side front seat has a silver dollar sized hole in the outside lower bolster (I have a line on a local set of OEM Conteur covers), a couple very minor door dings on the driver's side, and according to the original owner the car was professionally re-painted about 10 years ago (looks very good) due to factory paint oxidizing prematurely.
Location is Lancaster, Ohio (35 miles SE of Columbus). Price is $11,500.

Re: 1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
Stunning car! I have a silver '85 also, although mine is very rough. So I guess this means there's at least two silver Irocs in central Ohio.

Nice looking car!! I've not seen one in that color, I especially like the interior. What are you currently asking for it? Are there any pictures of the dash and gauges?

Re: 1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
This is the Car I wanted so bad as Senior in HS in 1985...I test drove one just like this...silver and red decals...it was so badass, but being a 18 yo kid I could not afford it. I would buy this in a heartbeat, but again, now at age 48 I still don't have the money lol but I still have an 88 Iroc

Re: 1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
Bring it to Carlisle PA next weekend. Its the 30th anniversary of the IROC camaro at the GM nationals. You would be hard pressed to find a better place to sell an 85 iroc.

Re: 1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
One of the best colors too. Id say its on the top of my list of fav third gens. The only other way i would have ordered that car maybe is as a L69 with a 5 speed with everything else being the same. I just wish the LB9 in the first years had a stick shift.

I ordered a brand new L69 5-speed Trans Am with all the performance options in 1984, and I can positively tell you this LB9 would spank that TA.

Re: 1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
This one opened my eyes to that. It would have also taken my '84 Grand National to task. I don't think it wants any of my current '87 GN or '89 TA (20th Anniversary 3.8 Turbo), but then neither of those two are broken in (56 miles on the GN and 231 miles on the TA).

A deal at $11,500. Too nice a car for that, but I want to move it.

Beautiful car and interior. Wish I were in the market for one and you were not so far away. I just sold an 87 5speed with 33,000 miles for $12,500. Hope you get what you want for yours. It took a while to sell mine. These cars have a big fan base. The only problem is they are all cheapskates.

Re: 1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
I agree! $11,500 is more than a fair price for this car! Stick to your guns and it will sell eventually. You just have to try not to let the lowballers and tire kickers raise your blood pressure. I can't tell you how many times I sent more photos and details to people asking and didn't even get a response back from them. I really hate selling cars!

Thanks Mike, there is some local interest right now and I don't know whether I'll be putting it away for winter or not, but it is not being reduced further in price.

Free bump from a fellow IROC-n-Roller who spends lots of time working in Lank-a-stir! You don't see many with this paint and decal combination.

Re: 1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
Just another thought...have you tried ebay? You have nice pictures and info and a low mileage high option first year iroc. As others have said don't go lower than you already have. Its too nice a car to just let go to anybody.

Re: 1985 IROC-Z, SILVER METALLIC
I agree, don't go any lower because it's just too nice of a car. And uncommonly optioned to boot.
I'd LOOOOOVE to own it, but my own silver IROC deserves to live and I need to see the project through. It needs more work than most 3rd genners are willing to do.
