Some of the most coveted cars ever produced are sold at your local big box store for less than $5. That's right, before most gearheads can drive, or even think about building a small block, they start collecting 1:64-scale Hot Wheels that, for some, inspire many of the same great memories as their full-size muses. And when Chevrolet announced plans to build a Hot Wheels version of their incredible fifth-generation Camaro, enthusiasts lined up like kids at an ice cream parlor. Fast forward a couple of years, and you get modern classics like this sweet 2SS coupe that are already starting to hold their ground in the coveted collector car market. One of only 1,118 Hot Wheels Camaro Super Sport coupes produced, and 1 of only 246 equipped with a row-it-yourself gearbox, this F5 is a fully documented boulevard king that's logged only 810 miles. If you're looking for a unique muscle car that's fast, reliable, virtually unused, and capable of holding more than its own when it comes to everyday performance, you've found your next toy!
KINETIC – RELATING TO OR RESULTING FROM MOTION
Visually, the fifth-generation Camaro is one of the most aggressive Chevys ever produced. And when that aggression is combined with GM's high quality build techniques, it creates one seriously capable muscle car. This showroom-fresh Chevy is a clean, modern classic that displays virtually no weathering. A slick coat of Kinetic Blue Metallic 2-stage, accented by matte blackout graphics and 'Dragon's flame' fender art, gives the car just enough edge to mix innocent, toy-like whim with ample on-road attitude. A roster of special bolt-ons, including aggressive aero effects, a red-laced ZL-1 grille, black valance trim and a full accoutrement of Hot Wheels emblems, adds just the right amount of detail. And an optional Rally Sport appearance package intensifies those aesthetics with large halos and smoked tail lamps.
WHO NEEDS ORANGE LOOPS TO FLY?
Ever hear the old saying “The greater the risk, the greater the reward”? Well, in a round about way, that logic can be loosely applied to toys. The Hot Wheels package was offered on anything from Chevy's V6 Camaro LT all the way to its V8 Camaro SS. And we all know that, while the V6 car is probably fun in a toy zeppelin kind of way, GM's LS3 V8 is the real McCoy, the cat's meow; the Red Rider BB gun that Ralphie so lusted for in A Christmas Story. Twisting 430 horsepower into roughly 424 lb./ft. of tire torching torque, the lightweight mill rumbling beneath this car's hood is a technological testament to the incredible significance of Chevrolet's storied cam-in-block engine design! GM Powertrain invested a great deal of time and research into getting the most out of its Gen IV small block, and it definitely shows. Changes started with a 20% stronger casting, featuring an increased bore of 103.25mm. Focus was then shifted to flow efficiency, resulting in the use of rectangle-port heads and an all-new intake manifold. Factor in a new piston design, and injectors borrowed from the brutal LS7, and you get a very potent street car that happily doubles as an everyday commuter.
ZETA GLOBAL REAR-WHEEL-DRIVE
Take a look under this Zeta-based Chevy and you'll find a slick-shifting Tremec TR6060 6-speed that's suspended in a proven, road-ready chassis. Found in everything from the Dodge Viper to Saleen Mustangs, that T56-derived gearbox utilizes larger gears to deliver better durability and improved torque capacity. That torque flows to a limited-slip rear end that's fitted with beefy, 3.45 gears. That drivetrain plays well with a Nurburgring-tested suspension. Electronically-assisted power steering, big Brembo calipers and giant, vented rotors join factory ABS to ensure this is the best handling street-focused Camaro to date. GM's Stabilitrak traction and stability control system works with a 6-speed Camaro SS-exclusive launch control system to keep the power safe and manageable. And the car's “CHEVROLET” branded calipers are fronted by 21-inch Hot Wheels-exclusive wheels, which spin 245/40 Pirelli P Zeros in front of 275/35 Pirelli P Zeros.
RED, BLACK AND BLUE
Inside this pristine Camaro you'll find a Hot Wheels-themed interior that displays virtually no wear at all. Heated and French-stitched seats provide 6-way power adjustment for the car's driver. A French-stitched dash, which features the same gloss black accents as the car's French-stitched door panels, hangs traditional, black-trimmed gauges between a standard Head Up Display and a standard Driver Information Center. At the center of that dash, Chevy MyLink infotainment deals audio through crisp Boston Acoustics speakers while a French-stitched shifter toggles behind factory console gauges. In front of the driver, an ornate steering wheel spins redundant audio, standard Bluetooth connectivity and standard Cruise Control around a standard tilt and telescoping column. And naturally, all the luxuries you'd expect in a high dollar muscle car are present and accounted for, including power windows, power door locks, power mirrors, an auto-dimming mirror, OnStar and Remote Keyless Entry.
With its stout V8, world-class drivetrain and roster of desirable options, this Camaro delivers astounding performance with a surprising amount of luxury. And with its incredibly low mileage, top-notch exclusivity and show-stopping good looks, it's the kind of car you buy, enjoy on weekends and hang on to for a long time! If you fondly reminisce about your days playing with some of the coolest American made metal on the planet, it's time you add a new, more substantial car to your Hot Wheels collection!
