Is there anything on the car that sets it apart from other IROC Verts? Was there more than 1 given away?

notice the z28 emblem on the grill and the stickers on the door handles. also i am pretty sure the car had a red stripe instead of the black one that is on there now.

The Z28 emblem up front is just a regular emblem that was stuck on there. The door handle emblems were just aftermarket stickers.

Yes, I still have the page from my Atlanta newspaper dated Feb 23, 1990. It says win one of five 1990 Camaro IROC-Z's in Atlanta.
50 nationwide. Fill out the entry blank and mail in. The mailing address was to a P.O. Box in Norwood, MN!

Other sweepstakes involving third-gen Camaros were:
Exxon Performance payoff in 1988 (11 IROC'S)
Levi Garrett in 1988
Dr Pepper in 1990 (10 IROC'S)
Conoco Hottest Brand Going game in 1992 (10 Z28 'verts)

Looks likea nice car.
How do you know it's a Marlboro car?
Not to knock your ride but unless there is something special about it performance wise the value is in it being a nice low mile (I assume) vert.
Case in point I know a chick who's dad won a Callaway twin turbo vette in 88 or 89 from the local radio station, the value of that car is not the fact it was given away it's that its a vette.

Iam just trying to get a little history on the car. the previous owner told me how it was a malboro car,but it is not actually like he wanted more money because of that. and as far as the stickers on the car i believe malboro added them to the car.

I doubt Marlboro would have added the emblem in the front and the door handle decals... it looks too tacky IMHO.

Nice looking car either way though

Glad to see you were interested in knowing about your car. Too bad you were only interested in the info so you could sell the car!

One interesting thing about that car is that it's got the fleet processing option (RPO FLT). Ordering 50 cars would qualify it for that option!
