Prices of cars NEW

Some explanation, I really hope it did not need to be explained... SC = Sport Coupe, Berl = Berlinetta, S/E = Special Edition, T/A = Trans Am.

The purpose of this is to give a relationship to the cars when NEW, this is by no means a way to judge the values of the cars as they are now.

Information is from the Standard Book Of Camaro, Standard Book of Firebird, Firebird Red Book, and 50 Years of American Automobiles.

Keep in mind does not reflect Window Sticker base price as many options were standard, IE the 88+ GTA came standard with almost everything, but things were deletable, for a credit, AND although some things were standard there may have been a charge for them on the Window sticker.

Damn, I didn't know '84 Recaro Trans Am were so expensive.

I guess you should probably fix that.

Re: Prices of cars NEW

Great posting! I also believe there is a service that can reprint the original window sticker if you send them your VIN. Still trying to find out what company does this since I heard about it in passing...

Re: Prices of cars NEW

here is what you need to do...
1) you need to contact Gm historical services, pay $50 for your original dealers invoice...
2) Contact www.phs-online.com and you will have to send him your invoice, and he will make a new window sticker for you, exactly as it would have been. PHS will not make fake window stickers with fake information...

Re: Prices of cars NEW

I think it would be a good new thread starter. I am not sure if I would want it in this thread, but a new thread where we could keep it clean may be beneficail, I would actually like to see two threads, one for Firebirds the other for Camaros...

Re: Prices of cars NEW

There's a few models out of the listing that I see...such as L98 Z28's for '91 and '92, and an LB9 IROC-Z/Z28 for '87...those are the only ones that I really looked for since those were the cars I have/had.


Also, I have the white book from GM for '91, and depending on what preferred equipment group the car was, the price goes up from what you have listed. For example, my convertible is a preferred group 3 car, with the LB9/convertible, and if I remember correctly it was stickered somewhere in the $24,000 range.

Re: Prices of cars NEW

The prices that I have listed would be the least expensive price that you could have had purchased the car new... That would be without any options, so by the time you start putting on options IE the Level 3 then the price very well could be $24K...

Re: Prices of cars NEW

Here is some more details on the base price of a 1991 Firehawk...

As far as I know, ALL B4U Firehawks should be the EXACT same price. The only factor that would change the FINAL price would be additional SLP options as you can see on the SLP window sticker...

$38,131 base not including destination or any additional options.

Re: Prices of cars NEW

Was it deletable to the LG4?

I know that manual and automatic were available only in 1984 on the L69 on the Y84, or just the Manual???

Re: Prices of cars NEW

According to all of the 1984 sales information I have or read, the L69 was included at no cost as part of RPO Y84, (Recaro T/A package '82-'84). I do not know if it could be deleted, but I doubt it. Of all of them that I've ever come across, 700r4 or T-5, all have had the L69, or at the least RPO L69 on the SPID &/or "G" Vin, just like its White and Blue sibling.
Kizz had found what he believed to be a hardtop '84 Recaro, but he was unable to verify it completely. If it was, it would make the LG4 a possibility because the same literature states that CC1 Ttops were also part of the package.

Does this place do window stickers for Chevrolets too? Looks like its an all Pontiac website. I'm very interested in this though, any info would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: Prices of cars NEW

Its funny because i work at a Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep dealership in the parts dept. I called our local Pontiac dealer and Chevy dealer to try and get an option list for my car using the vin#. They aren't able to do that back to 85 because they said the info doesn't come up in the computer anymore. My RPO sheet is long gone with some p/o. At work i can go all the way back to 83 with nothing more than the last 9 digits of the vin and print out all the rpo codes, options etc. I do it for people all the time and takes all of 30 seconds to do. I don't understand why GM wouldn't have this info available.
If someone was to come into my parts dept and want an option list on lets say an 84 Shelby Charger or something i print it out, send him on his way, and we don't charge anything for it.
