1994 – Sun Shines In

In 1994, the Camaro convertible returned to the lineup, offered in both Base and Z28 trim. The top was power operated and included a glass rear window with defogger for improved visibility. Despite newfound competition from Ford in the form of a redesigned Mustang that made 240 horsepower in Cobra trim, Chevrolet was able to triple Camaro sales in 1994. Unfortunately for enthusiasts, the 1994 Camaro Z28 received a Computer Aided Gear Selection feature for the manual transmission, a.k.a. “skip-shift,” which automatically moved the shifter from first to fourth gear under certain conditions in an effort to increase fuel economy.
