First Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible Pace Car auctioned for $225,000

ADVERTISEMENTS
At last week’s Barrett-Jackson’s Westworld Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona, General Motors unveiled a new Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible Indianapolis Pace Car. The first of the 50 cars to be produced was successfully auctioned off, with the proceeds to be given to the David Foster Foundation that supports families with children who need an organ transplant. Most of the other charity cars also fetched good prices at Barrett-Jackson. Bidding topped out at $225,000 for the Camaro, but this is not a bad price at all.

The winner of the auction will get the car at the track on Memorial Day weekend and the winner will have a chance to drive it during the parade lap of the race. This convertible may not be an actual pace car but the winning bidder will definitely take pride at having been given this opportunity.

The Pace Car has a Summit White exterior accented with orange stripes and door graphics. Meanwhile, orange leather is featured on the interior trim, including the front seat headrests embroidered with the Indy 500 logo. The instrument panel trim features extensions of the orange exterior stripes. This color combination is reminiscent of the design featured on the 1969 Camaro Indy pace car, replicas of which are now included in the list of the most collectable cars in America.
