WoW! That car is ***** *** nice. Worth every penny IMO, just a 157 mile SS would be rare enough, but a SIGNED Intimidator SS will fetch a pretty penny in a ten years.

It's a modern day COPO.

Plus Dale Earnhardt signed the tach on only 29 (some say 30) cars before his untimely death.


It's like the GMMG Blackbird except this one is for the Camaro guys. It's much more rare than the Berger Camaros and you know how people drool over those things.

It's just friggin' sweet to have the legend's signature on the tach on a car that he pulled strings to have modified and sold in very low numbers.... not to mention this cream puff has less than 200 miles on the clock.

Modding that car would probably devalue it if anything. A car like that is meant to be kept pristine.

man i wish i had the money, Dale Sr. was my favorite driver and the only reason I watched Nascar really. I have a Die cast replica of the Vette him and Dale Jr. Drove at the Daytona 24 Hours signed by both of them. I think I would sell it or trade it for that Camaro lol.

Ugly rims on an SS with a signature. I wouldnt pay 52k. For a Berger Camaro yes, not that thing... Unless Dale Sr's sig adds 450hp.

No offense but a modern day COPO????? COPO cars were generally high performance cars, not appearance cars signed by a "celebrity". The only upgrades to the horsepower of that particular car is the GMMG exhaust and the CF lid..........IIRC it is listed as 381 hp (flywheel I am presuming). Not exactly COPO status..........I am sure it is nice but $52k+ for what amounts to a collectors signature and a pristine 187 mile LS1 car is not my idea of a wise investment.

bullshit its not. They sure as hell arent makin anymore memorabilia with his signature on it And if its bone stock (which it is) the car itself is worth at least $20k. The rarity of that car will only go up as time goes on.

I dont expect you non-DE fans to understand, its just a 'thing'.

I have a signed diecast racecar that I treat like my own child.

Well, I think it's kick-***. That's the car that inspired my appearance mods. I saw one at the 35th F-Body Birthday Bash at the NCM in Bowling Green just a couple of months after I bought my SS. If I had $50k to invest and a suitable place to keep it, I'd ****** it up in a minute. As far as those of you who don't like it (especially the wheels), to each his own. That's actually a good thing for me b/c it makes my car more unique.
