Are 5th gens getting rare? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I've still seen quite a few, but that's probably because I'm looking for them. However, some of the 2010 models are 11 years old now and the newest ones are at least 5 years old.

the same people that had treasure troves of classic parts will likely have troves of 5th gen parts.if you know someone or can access the internet you will be able to find what you need.

I’ll have my 2013 hot wheel for ever hopefully. I smile whenever I see it and it never gets old cruising.

KenKat · 06-10-2020, 05:52 PM

I heard they’re not making them (the Gen5’s) any more lol.

I see few enough that when I do see one, it’s notable. I see a lot more Challengers and Mustangs.

What I failed to mention in my last post was that I see a TON of them where I live (West Central Florida). It is a very common car in Florida, especially the refreshed model years.

Aqua Blue RS/SS · 06-10-2020, 06:19 PM

Still a shiz ton off them around here but mostly V6 cars. And I bet we see and electric 7th gen introduced in the next few years as unfortunate as that is.

Same in long island New York. But I have yet to see another imperial blue metallic one.

5th gens will never be rare, but there are fewer of them. Just go look on Copart. Around here, it's mostly CUV's/SUV's and trucks.

KJZ28 · 06-10-2020, 08:34 PM

I see 5th gens in lower NY maybe 1-3 times a week. When I drive down to Long Island its every 30 minutes you see one.

They're everywhere where I live. (Clark County, Nevada) Everywhere. There are so many 5th gens here, they don't raise any sort of interest from people. Hate to say it but it's true.

StingrayblueSS · 06-10-2020, 09:39 PM

Pretty rare around me. I live in the poorest County in the state.

Silveradoss573 · 06-11-2020, 12:02 AM

I see a handful usually on a weekly basis. Don't see many 6th gens in my area though. Give it another 10 years for the 5th gens numbers to really start dropping most likely.

Yeah, Gen 5 is to and including 2015, so yes, they're done.
Gen 6 will be done in 2023, I just posted that.
