Actually, million dollar cars are exclusively cars that are extremely limited in production. Take a Bugatti Royale...there's only 7 in the world and originally you had to be from royalty to own one. The last one at auction brought over $7M. Like the Daytona Cobra I mentioned...there were 8 made for the '64 racing season, 1 of which caught fire for some reason. So out of the seven left 4 were sold (no one wanted last year's race car) and the remaining 3 were dumped into the ocean. And then there's the worlds most valuable car...the very first Rolls Royce Silver Ghost. It's owned and displayed by Rolls Royce and has an estimated fair market value of $50M. But a Camaro? Those things will be limited production only in the way that they'll be limited to how many they can sell in a given year. Now maybe a '69 ZL1 Camaro...they were limited to 69 and had what was argueably Chevy's most powerful motor ever which is only found in the Camaro ZL1 and the 2 Corvette ZL1s of the same year (one in private collection, the other owned and displayed by GM). But buying an '02 and garaging it is like these morons I see with Dale Earnhardt edition Monte Carlo SS's (the new ones) that think someone will pay $50,000 (I shit you not...I've seen several on sale for that much). There will never be a Camaro that's worth anywhere near a full million, especially with rumors that Chevy may bring it back (I'm sure in name only) within a few years. Besides...it's nothing super special. The option isn't much more than a sticker package.
