We cover the engineering decisions that broke General Motors' own internal design rules, the mysterious mid-year engine cutoff that created one of the rarest factory configurations in Camaro history, the suspension brace that engineers nicknamed the wonder bar, and the Berlinetta trim level that was quietly dying while the IROC-Z was rewriting what an American performance car could do on a racetrack.
