Chevrolet couldn’t let Ford and Dodge have all the fun. In 2012, the modern-day COPO Camaro debuted. It was based on a regular Camaro but had several engine options. There was a naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8, a 5.3-liter V8 with a 2.9-liter supercharger, and a 5.3-liter V8 with a 4.0-liter supercharger (via Motor Trend).

With a base price of almost $90,000, it was expensive but also well-constructed and astonishingly fast. Chevrolet made only 69 examples in 2012, with the number deliberately chosen to pay tribute to the original 1969 COPO Camaro, produced in only 69 examples.
