Camaro Wrests Sales Lead Back From Mustang

By Brian Lohnes

BangShift.com

Like a pair of heavyweight prize fighters trading blows, the Camaro and Mustang continue to fight for sales and performance supremacy here in America. According to the dudes at Camaro5.com, 6,321 Camaros left dealer lots in August as opposed to 5,570 Mustangs. Obviously the inhabitants of the Camaro-centric site were happy with this news.

The Dodge Challenger (which we still think is the hottest looking car of the troika) seems to be withering on the vine in the face of competition, moving a scant 3.283 units.

While it is awesome that there is a sales battle to write about, we need to put things in perspective. In 1987 Chevy sold 137,760 Camaros which is an average of 11,480 per month, verging on double current volume. If that isn’t a reality check on where the automotive marketplace is right now, we don’t know what is.

We’ll stop being a wet blanket now and remind ourselves that it is still possible to walk into a showroom and score a hunk of American iron with more than 400 hp, in three different styles. That’s good news any way you slice it.

Hit the link below, these dudes at Camaro5 are fancy! There are all kinds of charts and graphics. Hell, it looks like a Ross Perot infomercial!

Sad Vintage Racing Wreck

Watch this original steel-bodied classic Camaro bite the dust during a Trans Am race. Initially, it just looks to be going for a bit of a grass ride. But then, bam: it hits the wall, and things get ugly from there. I don’t really think that’ll buff out.

I’m not generally a big proponent of sitting on your car’s bodywork, but the pic is great nonetheless. From djkingassassin’s ride page, on which there are currently no other photos besides this one.

Great News: Stolen Corvette and Camaro Returned

By Dan Strohl

Hemmings

When we brought you news last week of the Miner family’s two stolen cars, the response was nearly overwhelming, with much of the country going on immediate lookout for the 1966 Corvette convertible and 1969 Camaro SS clone. As it turns out, the two Chevrolets didn’t get very far before both were recovered and returned to Erik Miner’s father, but we imagine it was the readiness of the Hemmings Nation army to see the cars home safe and sound that kept the thieves from parting the cars out or shipping them overseas. From the owner’s email:

“While we don’t have many details at this time, the Corvette was located at a remote location in the woods with the only access through a farm gate and through a hay field.

Ken has not been able to inspect the Corvette in detail, as the police have not processed the car.  On first impression there appears to be limited damage. The Camaro is another story…
