Revving Through

The Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z is more than just a car; it’s a testament to an era of bold design and fearless innovation. As a collector’s item and a symbol of American automotive excellence, the IROC-Z continues to inspire and captivate a new generation of car enthusiasts.

Few cars in automotive history capture the spirit of a generation as vividly as the Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z. Introduced in 1985, this high-performance variant of the third-generation Camaro quickly earned its stripes as an American muscle car legend.

Named after the International Race of Champions (IROC) series, the IROC-Z combined striking aesthetics, thrilling performance, and a racing pedigree that still resonates with car

enthusiasts today.

The Camaro IROC-Z emerged during an era when automakers were reviving their muscle car heritage. Chevrolet aimed to reassert the Camaro’s dominance on the street and track by crafting a vehicle that paid homage to its racing roots. The IROC-Z, with its aggressive styling and robust engineering, was the perfect answer.

Distinctive features like a lower ride height, tuned suspension, and unique badging set the IROC-Z apart from its peers. It was more than just

a Camaro with a catchy name—it was a performance machine designed for enthusiasts who craved speed and handling without compromise.

The IROC-Z came equipped with several engine options to suit a range of driving preferences. At the heart of its lineup was the 5.0L Tuned Port Injection (TPI) V8, delivering up to 215 horsepower—a figure that stood tall during the muscle car revival of the 1980s. Paired with either a four-speed automatic or a five-speed manual transmission, the IROC-Z promised

Through Time

exhilarating acceleration and precision control.

To enhance its road manners, Chevrolet outfitted the IROC-Z with upgraded shocks, larger sway bars, and performance-oriented tires. This ensured the car not only looked the part but performed exceptionally on winding roads and straightaways alike.

One glance at the IROC-Z, and its purpose is clear: speed and style. The car’s aerodynamic shape, distinctive stripes, and bold decals set it apart from other vehicles of its time. With T-tops that provided an open-air driving experience and a driverfocused cockpit, the IROC-Z became a dream car for many.

Its low-slung stance and subtle yet aggressive front fascia created an unforgettable presence on the road. It was a car that demanded attention, whether parked at a car show or

roaring down the highway.

The IROC-Z didn’t just dominate the streets—it became a cultural phenomenon. From music videos to TV shows, the car was a symbol of the 1980s, representing freedom, power, and individuality. Its name still evokes images of neon lights, big hair, and rock-and-roll playlists.

Though production of the IROC-Z ended in 1990, its legacy endures. Enthusiasts and collectors continue to celebrate this Camaro variant for its blend of power, handling, and style.

The IROC-Z holds a special place in automotive history, not only for its performance but also for its ability to capture the essence of an era.

- The IROC-Z was the first Camaro to feature the Tuned Port Injection system, a technological leap forward at the time.

- Chevrolet built the IROC-Z with

performance as its focus, offering optional rear disc brakes and a limited-slip differential for enhanced control.

- The car’s name was derived from the International Race of Champions, a series that pitted top drivers from different disciplines against each other in identical cars.

Driving an IROC-Z today is akin to stepping back in time. The roar of its V8 engine, the precision of its steering, and the feel of the road beneath its tires are as thrilling now as they were decades ago. It’s a car that not only brings joy to its owners but also sparks conversations and nostalgia among those who encounter it.

Whether parked at a classic car meet or racing down the quarter-mile strip, the IROC-Z remains an icon—a muscle car that truly lives up to its legendary name.

Led Zeppelin and Their Passion for Classic Cars

Led Zeppelin, one of the most iconic bands in rock history, left a mark not only with their music but also with their love for classic cars. The band members shared a fascination for vehicles that symbolized not just luxury, but also freedom, power, and a unique connection to speed and timeless design.

PAGE’S GARAGE: A HAVEN FOR CLASSIC CAR ENTHUSIASTS

Jimmy Page, the guitar maestro and creative mind behind Led Zeppelin, was a passionate collector of vintage cars. Among his prized possessions was an Aston Martin DB5, the legendary James Bond car, which combined British elegance with a powerful engine. This vehicle reflected not only his refined taste but also his love for cultural icons that defined an era.

ROBERT PLANT: SPEED AND VINTAGE STYLE

Charismatic vocalist Robert Plant favored cars with character and history. His favorite was reportedly a

For Led Zeppelin, classic cars weren’t just material possessions but symbols of their success and a life lived to the fullest. Their passion for these vehicles has inspired generations of fans to explore the world of motors and appreciate the timeless beauty of vintage cars.

Jaguar E-Type, a symbol of innovative design in the 1960s. For Plant, driving these cars was more than a mere pleasure; it was a way to connect with the spirit of the era that so deeply inspired his music.

JOHN BONHAM: HORSEPOWER FOR AN UNSTOPPABLE BEAT

John Bonham, known for his explosive

energy on the drums, had a unique taste for powerful cars. Bonham was a fan of American muscle cars, such as the Ford Mustang. His choice reflected his personality: powerful, dynamic, and always ready for action.

JOHN PAUL JONES: PRECISION AND ELEGANCE ON FOUR WHEELS

The band’s multi-instrumentalist, John Paul Jones, leaned towards more understated yet equally sophisticated vehicles. Rolls-Royce and Bentley classics were among his favorites, embodying his reserved style and attention to detail.

The band spent much of their time traveling on tour, and although they couldn’t always bring their favorite cars along, the influence of classic automobiles was evident in their aesthetic choices and the energy of their performances. Their music often evoked the same adrenaline rush as hitting the accelerator in a classic car.

The engines roared in sync with “Whole Lotta Love” and “Kashmir,” and classic cars became yet another chapter in Led Zeppelin’s legendary story.

THE FERRARI GTB 275 Considered “the most satisfying sports car in the world,” won over Jimmy Page with its iconic Pininfarina design. Other famous owners include Steve McQueen, Sophia Loren, Miles Davis, and Roman Polanski.

AC COBRA 427

The Led Zeppelin drummer enjoyed this British-American sports car with right-hand drive, a creation of Carroll Shelby. His son Jason recalled that Bonham would change cars as frequently as he changed his underwear.

BUICK RIVIERA

WITH TAILFINS: The radically redesigned 1971 Buick Riviera, with its “tailfins” inspired by the 1963 Corvette Stingray, captivated Robert Plant, who drove it for 12 years.

INTERCEPTOR JENSEN

John Paul Jones and his Interceptor: Led Zeppelin’s quiet bassist didn’t share the same passion for cars as the rest of the band, though he did own a Jensen Interceptor.

In its modern iteration, the T120 retains its retro essence while integrating cutting-edge technology, making it a functional masterpiece for fans of both vintage aesthetics and practical

performance.

At first glance, the Bonneville T120 is a trip back in time. Its classic lines, teardrop-shaped fuel tank, chrome accents, and cushioned seat evoke the aesthetics of the 1960s. Yet beneath this nostalgic exterior lies a modern machine.

LED lights, an analog-digital instrument panel, and high-quality finishes showcase Triumph’s attention to detail. Available in a range of colors that blend classic and modern tones, the T120 turns heads wherever it goes.

The 1,200cc parallel-twin engine is the heart of the T120. Delivering 80 horsepower and 105 Nm of torque, it provides smooth and character-rich riding. With electronic fuel injection and liquid cooling, this engine meets current emission standards without losing its legendary deep sound.

The Bonneville T120 isn’t just powerful—it’s smart. With Rain and Road riding modes, switchable traction control, and ABS, it offers

safety and adaptability for any riding condition.

Triumph has paid special attention to rider comfort. The seat is wide and ergonomic, ideal for both urban commutes and long journeys. Its adjustable suspension and Brembo brakes ensure precise and reliable handling.

For long-distance enthusiasts, the T120 includes practical features like standard heated grips and a USB port, keeping riders connected and comfortable on the go.
