1969 Camaro Voted Best Chevy Of All Time

Not just any winner, but the overwhelming winner! Congrats to the ‘69 Camaro, the top pick of Chevrolet fans!

“Chevrolet fans have spoken: the 1969 Camaro is simply the best Chevy the brand has ever produced. As part of Chevrolet’s Centennial celebration, fans were asked to vote for their favorite vehicle from Chevrolet’s 100-year history, and the ’69 Camaro was the overwhelming winner.

If you ask Chevrolet’s current Design director, Tom Peters, that doesn’t come as much of a surprise. Peters says the ’69 Camaro is not only one of the best vehicles in Chevrolet’s history, but it’s also one of the best vehicles ever produced. He admits, however, that he is a little biased considering he has owned the same 1969 Camaro for nearly 20 years.

“I can vividly remember seeing one for the first time as a kid,” said Peters. “The intent of the Camaro was instantly understood, even to a 14-year old like me, because it possessed a very powerful personality and an elegant, simple design. The Camaro was so cool because it offered this great style, high performance, and yet was attainable for someone just getting out of school.

The full list of Chevrolet’s most popular vehicles are now available on the automaker’s Centennial celebration website.

Peters added, “Today, the ’69 Camaro has become one of the best examples of timeless design in the industry. Like the very best designs, the Camaro is much more than just a machine because it evokes powerful emotions in people of all ages. That’s why we looked to the ’69 for inspiration when designing the fifth-generation Camaro, and why the ’69 Camaro is an example of the timeless vehicles Chevrolet will strive to deliver for the next 100 years.”
