I dunno, never had a camero, but when I had my camaro painted, I had estimates anywhere from 1000-2500 for a same color paint job, but I decided to go with a different color, and it set me back 3300 (with about 1000 being new body parts and body work)

oh, your best bet would to be to check around shops locally and see what they're charging

Depends on the type of paint job and the shop. If you have a car where you did all the prep work and all it need was two base coats and three clears, then it might not run as high as needing primmer and filler and prep work plus the base and clear. I'm not sure as actual cost but it can be from as low as 400 to 7700 dollars. It depends, best thing to do is call around and get estimates (look for free ones). Do some resreach to see what your car needs and what you want done.

just my 2 cents

My brother just had his 86 IROC painted back the same color (black) with no body work required. Cost $550 from a small local place, similar to a Maaco. The package was a machine and hand sanding, the top grade paint and a clear coat. The original clear coat was peeling and looked like total *** so something had to be done. Came out looking freaking perfect. Beautiful car now. Maybe it won't last as long as a more expensive paint job (with better paint I assume) but for now it looks really sweet... I'm going to get mine repainted here at the same place shortly.
