The prices are base prices not optioned out. In 2002 the SS was an option. I chose the highest priced models that where comparable. The 2015 Z28 was a limited production model and the ZL is not comparable to models from the earlier years.
Just some info for you to ponder over.
Have fun.

the problem with this is that originally a camaro only cost HALF a years salary. not 90%. This actually shows how skewed market inflation is compared to the inflation of earning power by the average person. just saying.
