Re: 92 Z28

The car you are describing is desirable especially around here and is somewhat rare. Top of the line Z28 in the last year or a 3rd gen with 25th anniversary trim is not common. Not as rare as a Firehawk but I don't believe many Z28's were ordered that way plus it is good shape! You found a good one, keep it. Please post some pics!

They made around 70,000 camaros in 1992. GM did not keep track of how many cars with that exact combination were made. I know combine website will tell you this but their database is incomplete. Below website gives you production numbers for each RPO option. It at least gives you and idea of how rare a B2L (L98), 25th ann (Z03) is.

Out of 70,007 1992 camaros
- 5,197 were Z28 coupes
- 3,038 had L98
- 3,645 had oil cooler
- 8,197 had Z03 25th trim
- not sure of # with leather but it is low

Confirm the mileage with Carfax records...sounds like a very nice and very desirable car.

Very nice car, but not a Z03 I found out today, still a nice car tho..The dealer ran the last 8 digits of the VIN...I was hoping it was a mistake, but it is a fake, it does have all the number matching options, plus some, but not the 25th anny package, someone just painted, and added badges...Im still pretty happy tho, all other numbers match.....
