The First 2014 COPO Camaro Auction

Chevrolet's COPO program is returning with a fifth generation COPO Camaro collab of race cars. Like the past two years, only 69 of these dragsters will be built for use in the NHRA Stock Eliminator and Super Stock classes.

Customers now have a wider range of engines to pick from. Not only the 7 liter V8 engine, but a supercharged version of the 5.7 V8 introduced this year. While the engine may be altered, the COPO uses racing chassis and suspension components, including independent rear suspension. Every car comes with safety equipment, including an NHRA certified roll cage.

The Camaro also comes with new racing seats, a new wheel design, and an updated graphics package.

The only Camaro that will be painted Ice Blue Metallic has the #1 serial number. It will be auctioned off at Barrett Jackson's annual January event in Scottsdale, Ariz. All proceeds from that car will go to Achilles Freedom Team of Wounded Veterans.

$400K Camaro Sold at Auction

There are only two COPO Camaro's in the world, one of them on display at the GM Heritage Center where it will stay for the rest of forever. The second one was just sold this past weekend at the famous Barrett-Jackson auctions in Scottsdale, Arizona. The lucky seller made quite a bit of bank seeing that he got $400,000 off of it. 

Hiding under the hood of this bad boy is a 327-cu V8 engine with a 4 liter supercharger. The combined horsepower is a whopping 550 and mated to a three-speed Powerglide slushbox. A beauty to behold in one lucky persons garage.
