Chevrolet killed the Camaro in 2024 with no confirmed replacement, so you're shopping a discontinued platform with uncertain parts support ahead. The 6th-gen V8 models, SS, LT1, ZL1, are holding value at shocking rates while V6 trims crater: one 2LT owner lost $10k in equity after just 8,000 miles. The engine choice matters more here than almost any other car on the market. If you want a modern muscle car with a future, the Mustang is still in production. If you want a V8 Camaro before they're gone, buy the SS or LT1 and skip the four- and six-cylinders entirely, those are the ones dealers can't give away.
This is what happens when Toyota borrows BMW's homework and actually improves it. The B58 engine tunes to 500+ wheel horsepower on stock internals, the chassis feels sharper than the Z4 it shares bones with, and it holds value like a limited-edition sneaker. The catch: 2020-21 models burned oil between changes, not catastrophic, but annoying enough to make 2022+ the smarter buy. The bigger question is philosophical: can you live with a Supra that's half BMW under the skin? If badge purity matters more than driving joy, walk away. If you want a reliable weekend weapon that won't depreciate into oblivion, this delivers, just skip the early years and prepare for dealer markups that'll test your commitment.
