I honestly expect that with the extreme high production numbers of the 45th Edition that it will likely not be a car of unusual value later.

I could be wrong, but I would hardly call that a rare Camaro. I see more 45th editions than all other special editions combined.

Per model year it's probably true that the Bumblebee has lower production numbers. The point is that the 45th Anny edition was a ONE year run. It was not produced in 2010 and will not be produced again. In the mean time the bumblebee multiple model years, and to the untrained eye will continue by simply adding black stripes to the yellow Camaro. This adds up to higher numbers.

It's all for not anyhow, the bumblebee is crazy sexy, I was on the fence when I bought my 45th and just decided I was not a yellow car guy, but almost was! Synergy is smokin hot, Honor and Valor is awesome. They are all great, and all in limited numbers, especially when compared to a production year close to 100,000.

I don't seriously see any of these cars becoming collectible though. As much as I would like to, it just doesn't seem like reality. It all depends on demand. Here we are 45 years after Camaro first came to town drooling over 1st gens. But at the rate things are changing will there really be anyone to drool over these in another 45 years? As I said, only time will tell.

There's a 45th anny convertible ss uptown here on a used car lot w/7800 miles. Assuming A6, but not sure. Saw it from the road and it looks excellent. But y'all know how that can be at 20/20. Advertised for 35,999. Not sure if that's good or bad at this juncture. KBB says that's about right for private party. But y'all already know KBB don't mean much.

I'd be surprised that the production total being that low, I've seen numerous 45th Anniv. cars around in MD since they came out.

For the value of them, they are a special color only available on the 45th anniversary, they have the unique blue & red interior stitching, then the wheels. I don't thik they'll be worth a lot more than other 5th Camaro's but I'd like to think 10-20 years from now they will hold some extra value compared to the other 5th gens especially in mint condition. I'd compared the 45th's value to the likes of the 2002 CE TA/99 30th TA & 35th Anni. Camaro.
