Default 35th LE SS in NBM?

I thought the 35th LE Camaros were all made in red but I ran across this one in NBM

All the 35th LE's were RED. Its obvious its not a LE, but nowhere does he say it actually is. Its just a well optioned SS that somebody added the LE seats, rims, stripes, etc too.

"The exclusive 35th Anniversary Appearance Package has been added - exterior stripes, special black wheels with machined edges, and ebony/pewter leather seats with the 35th Anniversary emblem embroidered into the front seats make this car truly a “one of a kind”. "

I noticed the 'has been added' but by who? Was it ordered like that or did the owner have the dealer put all that stuff on? He stated its 1 of 299 02 NBM SS, which I am sure they made more than 299 NBM SS in 02. I just never seen one of these & it looks exactly like an LE, & only 5k miles on it. It is missing the oval SS badges on the front fenders though.

He said one of 299 NBM AUTOS.

That car was just made with factory parts you could order yourself (most of which are probably unavailable now). Pretty darn cool in my opinion.

I'm surprised they went as far to add the seat covers but not the fender emblems.

Definitely not a factory car, but it's nice nonetheless.

Good point! I suppose it wouldn't be too difficult to have one made in NBM considering all the other work they put into this "clone."

That is a really cool looking car, but is it a Z4C or not? Either way it looks really sharp. Id drive it.

Reminds me of the 1 off 30th ann. TA that never caught on .had blue paint, white stripes ,white rims,etc,.You would think if it was a GM factory car they would have the matching color fender emblems.We all know GM can be cheap some times but that is just 2 much,plus even if they made just 100(much less than 299) 35th ann. LE SS cars it would seem to be a little more common or familiar 2 folks here.People have been making clones and replica cars for years now,most of them involving way more attention 2 detail than just adding stripe's,rim's ,and seat's/seat covers.I bet it would look pretty sweet if it was black with white stripes 2.either way cool car,but not worth more than a red one with actual documentation .just my opinion.

Thats the point, its not worth more than a REGULAR SS, much less a LE. Its just got stripes that anyone can buy, seats out of one, and so on. ANYONE could do that without to much trouble.

I think it's worth more than a regular SS just because it looks cool and used factory parts. Worth more than a real 35th LE? Sure, why not? If somebody doesn't like red, they'd be happy to buy it.

Regarding the emblems, GMMG made one or two 35th Anniversary Performance Editions and I know at least the lemans blue one has the red badges.
