Today we take sporty-looking, economical coupes for granted, but when the Mustang came out in 1964 as a stylish alternative built off the Falcon platform for the young (and young at heart), it was an unmitigated success. So wildly popular was the Mustang, that dealers would quip that “hotcakes were selling like Mustangs.” Thus a new genre was born, and the competitors in the ponycar segment—namely the Camaro—sprang up quickly.
While the main thrust of today’s Camaro enthusiast is toward the fire-breathing V-8 variants and conversions, let us not forget the ponycar’s original mission statement: to provide sporty, yet economical daily transportation. Travis Kirgan is one if its proponents. His ’98 Camaro has retained the stock Buick-derived, fuel-efficient 3800 Series V-6, to which he’s added a heaping helping of nitrous to even the score with its V-8 counterparts. A 5-inch cowl hood, 1.5-inch lowering springs, 16-inch Epic ARE wheels, and a home-brewed front splitter complete the look.
