1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS from Vampire Diaries

Flipping through the TV channels one evening, I caught a Camaro from a scene in CW's Vampire Diaries. I don't watch the show regularly, so I had to look it up to see its year and variation. The car turned out to be a 1969 Camaro SS Convertible. It was driven by one of the leads, Damon Salvatore, the bad boy between the two brothers.

Fitting, I suppose. The bad boy driving a muscle car. Reminds me of another CW show, Supernatural, where the bad boy in that show drives a Chevrolet Impala.

Interestingly enough, 1969 was the last year of the first generation Camaro. The rear-wheel drive 2-door coupes were brought to market by Chevrolet to compete with the Ford Mustang in the growing market of young baby boomers.
