Price of the 2013 Camaro ZL1 Convertible Announced

After debuting its hottest drop-top at auto shows, GM has announced the price of the 2013 Camaro ZL1 Convertible. The powerful convertible will start at $60,445, including a $900 destination charge.

Packing 580 horsepower, the 2013 Camaro ZL1 Convertible is Chevrolet’s most powerful drop-top ever built. It uses the same 6.2-liter V8 engine and Magnetic Ride Control suspension from the coupe version. The convertible also gets a stiffer chassis.

The 2012 Chevrolet ZL1 Coupe, which is already on sale, runs for several thousands less, priced at $54,095 for the manually-equipped version.

Chevrolet also announced pricing for the 2013 Camaro 1LE. Priced at $37,035, the Camaro 1LE comes for a more affordable price than its closest competitor, the Ford Mustang Boss 302. Chevrolet’s 1LE package upgrades SS models with extras such as rear monotube dampers, larger front and rear stabilizer bars, front strut tower brace, 20-inch alloy wheels, Goodyear Eagle Supercar G:2 tires, and an advanced fuel pump for high-speed cornering.

Camaros equipped with the 1LE use a 6.2-liter V8 engine, producing 426 horsepower.

Look for the 2013 Camaro ZL1 Convertible and 2013 Camaro 1LE when they both go on sale later this year.
