Just spotted this 83 or 84 Z28 305 HO driving in Humboldt, IA with the t-tops out. It was really dusty, but looked to be a very nice car!

Saw this one in Moorpark a couple weeks ago. Didn't have time to go knock on the door, might try to soon to see if they're a member on here. There's a guy a couple blocks over from my new house who has an '86 T/A with an LT1.

This was a White IROC in 2016. At the time the young fella told me he was painting it to match mine only it would look better.

Been seeing this 2.8 liter V6 round the block from my building in Miami Beach, FL lately. Paint's in decent shape, but looks like the rear latch needs repaired

Something about this car really speaks to me. Hardtop, faded factory looking paint, mismatched but straight panels, stance, wheels, etc.

Maybe not a "parking lot", but spotting a squished gunmetal grey 91-92 is definitely not something you see every day

Nova Scotia, originally from Quebec. Sometimes I wish I was born in SC, NC, or Tennessee, the land of motorsports. I am mixed up about the banshee nose. Some days I think it's awesome, some other days I find it out of place. It's a weird relationship lol. It's been going on for more than 18 years now! It was really audacious from GM to pull that stunt. It's almost like a futuristic look on an older 80's design. Like midlife crisis hahah. Post some pictures of your cars in your profile. Cheers.

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Saw some fresh eye candy for y’all today while picking my kids up from school. 89-90 Gunmetal GTA. Looked super clean, and as it was pulling out I noticed it had an SLP TOTL exhaust correct for that year. Made me wonder what other SLP parts may have been on it. Drooled, and instantly wanted it. Also looked like a female driving it, bonus!!



My boy cheesing behind the stop sign lol

I'm in Ontario, and every time I look at a "rust free" car just to find that it's completely rotten, it reminds me of how badly I wish I lived in the south! I think every Eastern Canadian car lover feels like that Here are a few pics of the cars too. Unfortunately I just sold the last of the fleet last week, but I'll be hunting hard for another third gen in the spring

Also since we're on the topic of gunmetal GTA's, here's one that I came across while looking at a totally separate car for sale. I saw the tail lights poking out of the sellers garage and basically demanded he show it to me. It's a 5 speed with 100,000km

Canadian cars aren't even that clean when they're still on the dealer lot holy. Beautiful man, looks like you've put a lot of love in to it!

It was about a month or so ago but I'm not sure if it's still available. He was asking 10K CAD which was absolutely worth it. The car was spotless except for some paint beginning to fade on the hood and roof.

Disappointing. I would be willing to beg the wife for a gunmetal in that condition under 10K US

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Finally took a couple pics of another car here in my area. It was in an apartment parking lot so I couldn't knock on the door to find the owner.

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

In Kadena, Okinawa and found this in the lemon lot. Didn't see any paperwork on it and hasn't moved in the month I've been here. Honestly can't tell if it's a Firebird or Camaro. Most of the outside stuff is Pontiac with the exception of the taillights. The interior has Z28 badging. Looks like it's been here awhile. Rust is becoming an issue.

You know that's clearly an Iroc-Z as indicated. It should bring 25k at Barret Jackson.

Funny how 3rd gen Camaros seem to lend themselves to two-toning (and I'm not even a fan of that).

If thats who i think it is that car originally was a white camaro. The owner also has a black kitt that is supercharged and a teal 92 RS. Hes military but on FB i think he went by the name "Iroc Knight" but i cant remember. its been a long time since we last spoke. But that car was shipped from the states with all the parts to convert it back if he wanted to.

that was my car. it was a Knight Rider KARR built from an 88 IROC Z Camaro. I sold it back in May. it's currently sitting at the Kadena dorms where the new owner has it. we will be putting it back on the road soon

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi










so.... the story on this was that i purchased the IROC for $300 with a blown motor. i had a 91 GTA Trans Am that was rotted out from the inside but ran fine. i basically migrated all my TA parts over to it, then later did the Knight Rider conversion.
