It was the 25th anniversary of the Camaro and the last year for third Gen production.
1992 also marked the end of Camaro's produced at the Van Nuys plant (the
only Camaro producing plant since the Norwood plant closed at the end
of the 1987 model year). All Camaro's had 25th anniversary badge on dash.
"Heritage Edition 1992 RS"
`Heritage Edition' package available on all Camaro's. Package included
first generation Camaro style hood and rear deck stripes, body colored
grille, black headlamp pockets, and a 25th anniversary badge on rear
spoiler (RS) or hatchback rear edge (Z28). Initially Heritage package
only available as white car with red stripes; black car with red stripes;
or red car with black stripes. Mid-year, additional Heritage Edition
colors available: polo green car with gold stripes (this combination
also got gold badges and gold accent wheels); and purple haze car with
silver stripes.
"1992 25th Anniversary Camaro "
"Special 25th anniversary `Collector's Edition' Camaro was planned, but
then dropped. There were to be 602 (same as the number of '67 Z28's)
produced. Only two prototypes were completed however. The Collector's
Edition Camaro started as a white Heritage Edition RS Camaro (with
black stripes). Then the B4C police package was added, and then it
was equipped with the Corvette L98 5.7 aluminum head motor, fitted with
siamesed intake runners and tubular headers. This brought the horsepower
rating up to 270. The car was also equipped with a ZF 6-speed and GTA
black `lace' 16x8 wheels."
"B4C Police Package Camaro"
Dash badge on the RS now read `RS' rather than `CAMARO'.
`Tuned Port Injection' disappeared from the TPI throttle body cover.
Mid-year, valve covers on TPI motors changed from silver to black
(like LO3 V8). Also, at some point near the end of the production
year, the traditional smooth-appearance Camaro TPI runners were
replaced with rough, cast-appearance TPI runners (like on the Cor-
vette L98). These runners were possibly old Corvette stock being
used up on the Z28s since the Corvette's L98 was replaced by the
LT1 in 1992.
Z28 convertible came only with P235/55R-16 tires for 1992.
There were 705 1992 1LE Camaros built.
HD calipers and 11.86 front brakes became standard on the B4C special
service package. There were 589 1992 B4C Camaro's built.
