While Stellantis ordained for its Dodge division to end production of the L-bodied Charger sedan and Challenger coupe and GM did the same with the sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro back in December 2023, the truth is they will linger on for a while.
In fact, the first-quarter sales tally showed that the S650 seventh-generation 2024 Ford Mustang wasn't alone in the pony and muscle car business as it outsold the discontinued Camaro and Challenger with 13,707 units against 3,574 deliveries for the former and another sold 9,737 units for the latter. Why is that? Simple, there's still inventory left around and orders to be fulfilled at nationwide dealerships.
We are pretty curious to find out the tally for the first six months of the year in a few days. But before that happens, let's allow the rumor mill and the imaginative realm of digital car content creators yet another reason to feel doubt about GM's decision to end the life of the iconic Chevy Camaro, at least for the time being. Sure, they gave us the Collector's Edition on all trims and the 56-unit 2024 Camaro ZL1 Garage 56 Edition.
However, some folks dwelling across the parallel universes of vehicular CGI feel that General Motors and Chevrolet could have ended the ICE-focused production of the legendary nameplate on a higher note. More precisely, Jim, a virtual artist known as jlord8 on social media, loves messing around with all things CGI from the automotive realm, and he dreams of a reborn IROC-Z again!
In fact, he is a proud owner of GM stuff like a 1986 Buick Regal T-Type; this pixel master has dreamt on numerous occasions of making a modern-day version that would make the third-generation 1985 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z feel pretty darn proud. In fact, he even modified these into other GM stuff – like a T-tops Chevy Monte Carlo SS, for example.
Anyway, now he took a dark and menacing all-black (even the wheels, but except for the red brake calipers) 2024 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 and morphed it into a great-looking old-school yet modern IROC-Z by deploying the signature quad-square headlights, graphics, and the wraparound glass fastback rear style. In fact, that wouldn't be too hard for Chevrolet to do, right, especially with all the technology and aftermarket specialists lying around.
While it's entirely wishful thinking, this 2025 Chevy Camaro IROC-Z still ignited the imagination of the author's fans, who suggested using an oversized LS V8 engine with eight to 900 hp as the basis for a GT Le Mans-style racer next. Of course, the CGI expert also liked the idea and suggested it could be achievable with a 3.0-liter supercharger under the hood. What do you think?
