Re: 116 MILE 1989 IROC-Z

Never had license plates but they installed headlight covers? Odd priorities. Unless those were a dealer item or something that I'm not aware of...

Re: 116 MILE 1989 IROC-Z

It’s a stunning car! I think it would get 40K at Barret Jackson if it hit the block at the right time. The color just sets that car apart from other low mileage irocs

Because the resident low mileage nerds post mostly Camaros. With all due respect to the nerds, of course.

A person could probably argue that people buy Pontiacs to drive them, and people bought Camaros to park them in the garage and rub them with a diaper.
