Camaro Hot Wheels Edition: Chevrolet x Hot Wheels, 2013
Toy collaboration · with Hot Wheels · 2013 · Combustion
The day a die-cast toy became a real, dealer-orderable car.
The 2013 Camaro Hot Wheels Edition was the landmark moment when a die-cast toy line crossed into a real dealer-orderable production car. Shown as a concept at SEMA and greenlit for 2013, it dressed the fifth-generation Camaro in a bespoke Kinetic Blue with a full-length matte-black stripe, blacked-out 21-inch wheels ringed with a Redline-style accent that referenced the chrome-hubbed Redline cars Mattel launched in 1968. Available on V6 2LT and V8 2SS coupes and convertibles.
