1996 Chevrolet CamaroThe police package Camaro is known as a B4C. There were only 228 made in '96 so it would have been a good car to hold onto. The engine is a 275HP LT-1.

The SS cars were the highest factory performance Camaros offered at the time and included a functioning hood scoop and new five-spoke 17in (43cm) x 9in (23cm) wheels.

Returning to the Camaro line after nearly a quarter-century absence was Chevrolet’s famed SS (Super Sport) designation.Technically a package (RPO R7T) for the Z28, the SS was the ultimate Camaro of its day.

Following the success of their “Firehawk” program, in which Pontiac Firebird Formulas were outfitted with high-performance goodies, SLP (Street Legal Performance) out of Red Bank N.J. was graced with another “Tier-1” contract, now working with Chevrolet Motor Division on the Camaro SS performance package.

Although the SS option was ordered at the dealer’s desk by wide-eyed, salivating Camaro customers like other RPOs, the process of transformation was anything but usual.After recording the dealer’s request and the $3,999 list price, a new Z28 would leave the Ste. Therese Quebec assembly plant and travel by truck, south of the border to SLP’s Troy Michigan facility.

There the Z28 received its performance package, thus becoming a Z28/SS. The new Super Sport Camaros would then be delivered to their respective dealerships and await delivery.

All Z28/SS Camaros were fitted with SLP performance enhancements including:

• Composite SS hood with functional center-mounted scoop and forced induction air cleaner assembly
• S/S low-restriction exhaust
• Unique re-styled up-turned rear deck lid spoiler
• Specially-tuned suspension (Coupes/T-tops), SS convertibles retained stock Z28 suspension and had 16×8-inch wheels
• 17×9-inch ZR1-style five-spoke aluminum wheels with 275/40ZR17 performance tires
• Unique SS badging
• Quaker State Synquest synthetic engine oil
• Z28 SS interior plaque

Additional SLP SS options included:

• Stainless Steel Dual performance exhaust system
• Level II Bilstein sport suspension
• Torsen limited-slip differential including performance lubricant package
• Hurst short throw shifter
• Engine oil cooler

First year SS Camaros exterior colors were limited to Black, Arctic White, Red and Polo Green.

Weighing almost 3,500-lbs., the SS was hefty, but could put it to the ground. Power output was 305hp and 325lb-ft — or 310hp with the optional SLP performance exhaust. This was the first Camaro to brake 300 ponies since 1970.

Manufacturers numbers had the Super Sport Camaro sprinting to 60mph in 5.3-seconds, blasting through the traps in 13.8-seconds at 101mph and topping-out at 159mph.

Handling-wise, it recorded 0.88 Gs in lateral acceleration testing and could stop on a dime from 60mph in 117-ft.

AN EXPERT REVIEW:

Here's the real deal, the kind of serious, all-out, no-holds-barred muscle-car that makes gearheads of all ages breathe fire and burn rubber.

The Camaro SS is a roaring testosterone enhancer, filled with sound, fury and 310 horsepower. This special-edition Camaro is a terrific revival of the awesome muscle cars of the '60s, down to the classic Hurst stick shift, though now it's a six-speed. The resurrection of the revered SS emblem is the icing on the cake.

This is the maxed-out performance version of Chevrolet's always-popular sports coupe, taken to the limit by SLP Engineering with more power, better brakes, tuned suspension, foot-wide tires, a custom exhaust and a bad attitude.

Of course, owning this beast would require a mountain of emotional maturity, which I just don't think I have. I'd lose my license, lose my insurance, maybe end up in jail.

That's not to say I didn't dig it, which I did. Maybe too much.

The SS does evoke strong reactions. European car sophisticates hold their noses, environmental types bring out the ax handles and cops grab their ticket books as it rumbles by.

Polite society shudders. My wife rolls her eyes.

There is 310 horsepower on tap, gained from a 5.7 liter, LT1 V-8 engine with forced-air induction, custom exhaust and other tweaks.

Here are some numbers, according to Chevrolet:

- Zero to 60 in 5.3 seconds.
- Quarter mile in 13.7 seconds at 102 mph.
- Zero to 100 and back to zero in 19.7 seconds (according to Road & Track magazine).

Here's another number to ponder: $7,243. That's how much additional it costs to turn a run-of-the-mill Camaro Z28 into a Camaro SS. On our test car, with stereo upgrade and a full package of power options and accessories, that almost hit $30,000.

According to SLP, the base price for the Camaro SS, without all the luxury gizmos and the custom exhaust system supplied on our test car, is $24,500. That equates to a powerful horsepower-to-dollar ratio.

This is the first time in 24 years that Chevrolet has used the Super Sports emblem on a Camaro. Although the overall treatment is accomplished by SLP, it's sold as an option package by Chevy dealers.

With its massive hood scoop, gigantic tires and subtle revisions to the rear fenders, the Camaro SS looks ready to take no prisoners. In freeway traffic, slower cars quickly change lanes as the glowering Camaro grows larger in their rear-view mirrors.

Merging onto the freeway is laughably easy. And once there, burbling along in sixth gear at 65 mph with the engine barely turning above idle, the SS gets remarkably good gas mileage.

That's part of the flexibility of this whole package: The explosive power is there when you want it, but when driven gently around town, the SS is surprisingly smooth and docile. Certainly a future super Classic.

The more I drive the car AND look at it, there I fall in love with her. Like I said, she's a beast. And a blast to drive!. There is not one scratch or ding on this baby. The engine bay you could eat off of. I don't know what else to say but this car is spectacular. So much so that I really don't care if she sells or not. Just being honest.
THIS CAR IS A KEEPER AND ONE OF MANY I'M SURE I'LL BE SORRY I SOLD

I need to politely say that I will not give this baby away. Some may think they'll get it for $4,000-$6,000 will not. If that's the case I'll be very happy to keep her!

You will not find anything like this, a rare Z28 SS let alone in this condition and shape. She's beautiful to look at and a blast to drive. And the Polo green is absolutely gorgeous and the nicest color they made!

Thank you...

Take a look at this: item #381707225976 same car, same year, same color, similar mileage. But an less desirable automatic and not a dual exhaust. Sold for over $10,000. No comparison!

PRICED VERY FAIRLY. DON'T NEED TO SELL. WILL GLADLY KEEP IF SHE DOESN'T SELL. WILL NOT SELL AT MUCH BELOW PRICE LISTED. SHE'S A KEEPER!
