Love the car, but as per forum rules, you've gotta post a price.

Re: 1985 IROC L69

Wish it had T tops and wasn't red. I would consider it. Your price is fair.

Am I the only one that hates T tops ? I've always had ttop cars & hated them (I've never liked taking showers going thru car wash) so when I started looking for a hardtop/manual car years ago I told myself I will never own a ttop car again. I wish it were either silver or yellow but what can you do ?

Re: 1985 IROC L69

Nice. It's a highly desirable IROC to some people. It has going for it:

1985
red
hardtop
IROC
4 whl discs
ltd slip
3.73
L69
manual
black interior
custom interior
AC

This car as built in red, and even better in silver, and the 1985 LB9 equivalents are the top IROCs ever in my book. Lear Siegler interior is my only other potential option, but the '85 and '86 custom interiors were the best looking of all for '82 through '92 Camaros.

AND you have one that hasn't been driven to death, modded to death, or smashed or rusted to pieces.

Yes, while high miles it's all original, body, engine & drivetrain. It hasn't been altered in any way. It's a great car.

I sold my '86 two years ago, been looking since. Can't believe I found my '85 just miles away, almost like fate.

I also sought a hardtop for my second ownership of a Thirdgen.

Re: 1985 IROC L69

What a great looking car!!! I had my heart set on a manual, then the wife said it was a deal breaker because she wanted to be able to drive....One of the deciding factors on my car was all the unique options.

Those CAMARO seats are so 80's tacky but so cool at the same time

Wow, very nice. I kinda dig the L/S seats & the U35 clock just tops it. My dad bought a then-new 82 berlinetta (V6) with U35 but still cool nonetheless.

Those are some of the nicest seats to ever grace a 3rd gen and will value any car they are in more than the other offerings from that year. I sincerely wish my 83 had a set in there and would buy a set to install if I could find some!

I respectfully disagree about being the nicest. The Recaro's are the cats meow.

Re: 1985 IROC L69

We can disagree, I have a vintage set of Recaros in my 73 TA and find them a little awkward to get in & out of. From an appearance standpoint I would give the nod to the Lear Siegler seats. Don't mis-read this, the Recaros get high cool factor points, but I love the look of the LS seats.

Re: 1985 IROC L69

Thanks for the compliments!!! I really like the Recaro as well. I can't to see what any of the judges think in shows this summer. This is my first classic car! Let alone a bad Hot-Rod ( according to my granddaughter) so I am pretty excited for local shows.

Any idea on how many surviving cars are left ? It'd be interesting to know

Re: 1985 IROC L69

For me an 85 With the LS interior, T Top, U35 Clock (i also love this little clock), any color but red or black and L69 would be the perfect IROCZ.

You find those colours too common? Or just prefer other colours?

Re: 1985 IROC L69

A couple of posts about not liking red cars...but here is a known fact. Learned it from my father who has been an auto broker his entire career. Red, Black, White cars sell faster and tend to hold their value better in both the new and used car markets. Red, Black, White.....and in that order.
Nothing is prettier than a waxed up red thirdgen! Beautiful Iroc!

Thank you. Apparently some haven't heard the term "resale red".

Yeah way too common. I hate fire engine red. Its a deal breaker for me. And Black is a nightmare to keep up. I don't care what people say about better resale value. Not with me. I refuse to buy a fire engine red car! Now maroon is a different story. I like maroon.
