The Camaro Convertible That’s More Rare Than Your Favorite Supercar

The Callaway Camaro C8 Supernatural 400 has three things on any of the new hypercars: It’s more rare, it’s more affordable, and let’s be honest, it has an immensely better name. The Callaway C8 was created from 1994-1996, and only 18 total were built. From that, only five convertible versions were spawned. From those FIVE, this is the only ’95 with a Hurst six-speed manual transmission. One. Of. One.

So what makes this guy so much better than the regular Camaro Z28 it started as? Well, back in the day, it was hauled up to Connecticut and converted to a Callaway for $35,000. That meant a Paul Deutschman-designed “CamAeroBody” complete with more vents and a new nose and booty. The engine is a 383ci stroked LT1 V8 with an upgrade to bump it to 435 horsepower.

Underneath, it has an upgraded suspension with Koni shocks and Callaway springs and better Brembo brakes. The car was lowered for better handling, and it sits on lighter OZ racing wheels. On top of that, it has a bunch of small detail mods like the Callaway badging and a Callaway aluminum shift knob.

This particular car has only had two owners and sits at 15,887 miles.
