The more you look at today’s AutoHunter Spotlight car, a 2002 Chevrolet Camaro SS convertible listed by a dealership in Kentucky, the better it gets.
Let’s start with the fundamentals: it’s red, a perennially popular color. To be specific, it’s Bright Rally Red. Then there’s the fact that this car is a convertible (just in time for spring!). A red convertible? That’s a classic combo. The power-operated White soft top brightens up the exterior even more.
Speaking of classic, it’s also a Chevrolet Camaro, an icon of American performance. The SS badges on its fenders and rear end mean it has the almighty LS1 5.7-liter V8 fed by forced-air induction that bumps output to 325 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque. A four-speed automatic processes that power and sends it to the Zexel Torsen limited-slip differential and rear 17-inch wheels and BFGoodrich rubber. Other features include the High Performance Ride and Handling Suspension, four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, a power steering cooler, and dual exhaust outlets.
As an SS model, this Camaro manages to balance its performance with comfort and convenience. The Ebony leather interior has a power driver’s seat, power mirrors, power windows and locks, a tilt steering column, cruise control, 500-watt Monsoon AM/FM/CD audio system, and air conditioning.
Take a close look at the gauges and you’ll see another great thing about this drop-top F-body: what’s that on the odometer? Yep, this Camaro only has 23,965 miles on it.
On top of all that, this car’s model year adds to its appeal. The fourth generation of the Camaro—and the model itself—came to an end in 2002. Yes, Chevy brought its Mustang-fighter back for 2010 but, for a long time, the ’02 marked the conclusion of an era in American automotive history.
If you want a low-mileage, high-performance slice of that history, place your bid now on this 24K-mile 2002 Chevrolet Camaro SS convertible. The auction ends on Friday, March 28, 2025 at 11:45 a.m. (PDT).
