1987
The 1987 Sport Coupe was restyled with rally wheels (unique to this year), new lower body stripes, and argent headlamp pockets. The Berlinetta model was dropped and replaced with the new 'LT' option for the Sport Coupe. The LT option incorporated most of the Berlinetta's equipment except the electronic instrumentation. Late in the model year, the RS Camaro was introduced for California and with V-6 power only. The RS model had Z28 style valances that were painted body color (like IROC) and had no lower body stripes. The RS got the 15 inch 5 spoke aluminum Z28 wheels which were painted to match body color. The 1987 RS Camaro came only in red, white, or black. Delco-Bose sound systems and leather interior were available for the first time and were available on all Camaro models The CHMSL (center high mounted stop light) moved to the spoiler (which was slightly increased in size) on all cars equipped with a spoiler (all Z28's, IROC-Z's; spoiler optional on LT and Sport Coupe). Lower body stripes on Z28 still numbered 4, but the gap between the top three stripes was removed. The Camaro convertible was introduced for the first time since 1969 as a regular production option. The convertible was available on the Sport Coupe, Sport Coupe LT, Z28, and IROC-Z. The new 350 TPI motor was not available in the convertible however. The convertible conversion was performed on t-top equipped (t-top models have extra bracing) Camaros by ASC. Only 1,007 convertibles were produced this first year of production. 1987 was the 20th anniversary of the Camaro and the convertibles were considered the anniversary editions and were signified by a special dash badge that read `20th Anniversary Commemorative Edition'. The G92 performance axle ratio and J65 four wheel disc brakes were available this year on the IROC-Z convertible. 1987 was the last year for Camaros produced at the Norwood Ohio plant; the original Camaro Plant. The 350 TPI and 5 speed 305 TPI combinations were finally available on the IROC-Z. The 350 was only available in the IROC-Z and only with an automatic transmission. The exterior differed in appearance only by `5.7 Tuned Port Injection' badges rather than `Tuned Port Injection' badges. The TPI 350 motor was not visually distinguishable from the TPI 305. 1987 Engines
