I like it- I haven't seen many of that color combo. Kinda high on the price IMO.

Are you selling the car or trying to buy it, you stated "I also have many extras that ill give with the car" which makes me think your the seller

Hmmm.
I am not sure how stock the crease is down the passenger door.

$2000 to $2500, it does have the LG4 which is barely considered a V8 as its performance was not much better than a V6HO.

No I am not the seller. That was the sellers ad that I posted. If I was the seller I would have posted it in the For Sale section. I was interested in buying this car and wanted some feedback. I already own a 89 TTA and a 84 TA but I was not sure if this camaro was worth it or not. I liked it because it seemed like a survivor and all orginal. And I like the color because you don't see many that color.

Re: What do you think about this 1985 Camaro Berlinetta

Honestly I think your money could be better spent elsewhere.

Don't get hung up on what appears to be a "Rare Color" as there were 5,437 #54 (White Book) Light Yellow Camaros made in 1985, it was a one year only color, but that does not make it "rare" by any means.

Now if the car was a 1985 Z28 (non IROC) had the L69 305HO I would think that would be Rare as Chevy states that it was NA in thier literature.

Personally I would pass on the car, I might stop and look at it to see what they were asking, but I would not stop again. I just saw a 1987 IROC, Dark Blue, 103,000 miles LB9/A4 for $3500, I would buy that one before I ever invested into a car because of a rare color...
