What Are the Most Classic Collectible Chevrolets?
Through the years, Chevrolet has created some of the most iconic and loved cars, making for many desirable and collectible models. Here are some of the top classic and collectible Chevrolets to consider adding to your car collection:
2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8
The eighth generation of the Chevrolet Corvette instantly caught the attention and hearts of supercar lovers everywhere. Originally available with a coupe or convertible option and six different trims, this model year lets car lovers get in on a beloved supercar at an entry price of $59,995 MSRP or cap it out at $78,495 MSRP. Behind the passenger compartment sits the power horse of an engine. Boasting a 6.2-liter V-8 engine that generates up to 490 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque, this beast has plenty of get-up-and-go to offer the thrill of a lifetime.
What makes this car such a sought-after collectible is the complete redesign from the seventh generation, making it unique and new in the collectible supercar market. While this specific model year is no longer in production, you can still get the C8 version of this supercar with the newer model years, or you can search for it in the used car market by searching our used vehicle inventory.
2010 Chevrolet Camaro
Another beloved favorite in the muscle car group is the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, with its aggressive front end and jam-packed performance. This fifth-generation Camaro was offered as a coupe or convertible with five different trim options, making for a vast selection of collectible varieties. One of the major reasons this model took off was the movie media revolving around it, making it an overnight success. While this particular model isn’t in production, you can still get in on the action by searching for it as a used car, or you can opt for its newer model, the 2023 Chevrolet Camaro.
Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1
Corvettes enter the list again, with the 1990 and 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 being some of the most recognizable and sought-after Corvette models. The 2009 model was the sixth-generation ZR-1 and one of the most powerful factory-made Corvettes, which largely contributes to its collectible status. Another reason this model is highly coveted is that the 2009 model year was the first time in 12 years that the ZR-1 badge returned to the production line.
The 1990 model combined European mechanics with American design, resulting in one of the first American sports cars that could compete with the European-dominated supercar market at the time. Classic lines, impressive power, and precise handling all work together to make this supercar one for any collector to want. You can search for these beauties either as a part of a dealership’s used vehicle inventory or as a part of a vehicle auction.
1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454
Ringing true as an authentic American muscle car that speaks toward American innovation and power is the 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454. With a proud front end and a sloping cabin and back end, this muscle car was built for power, performance, and stellar handling. Under the hood is a powerful V-8 engine that generates 390 horsepower, making it a true icon of the muscle-car golden age. While this model is no longer in production and often isn’t part of a dealership’s used inventory, you can find this model in car auctions or private sales.
1960s Chevrolet Camaro
The 1960s saw many flagship muscle cars, and Chevrolet is no exception with its 1967 to 1969 Chevrolet Camaro. This first-generation classic boasted a wide variety of engine options to choose from, with perhaps the most well-known one being the Z28. This turnkey racecar made waves when it first debuted and is still making waves today with its 290-horsepower engine, note-worthy front end, and flowing lines that make this model instantly recognizable on the streets. This model is no longer in production and is often only seen as part of car auctions and private care sales.
Which Models Are Still in Production?
While the older model years are no longer in production, you can still find the Camaro and Corvette in newer model years. The Camaro will culminate with the 2024 model year being the last fully gas-powered model produced by Chevrolet. As for the Corvette, you can still find the C8 body style with the newer 2023 model that boasts innovative driver-assistance technology along with the premium 70th Anniversary trim option.
