A golf cart dressed up like a sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro might be the most on-the-nose way to tell everyone at your local club that you really, really like Chevys. Built by Caddyshack Golf Cars on an E-Z-GO chassis, this 2017 cart wears a full Camaro costume in Nightfall Gray, down to its fiberglass nose and tail and 50th-anniversary badging.
It recently traded hands on Cars & Bids, sold as a lightly used toy for someone who wants muscle-car vibes at 12 mph instead of 120. It is very different from the concours-correct hardware in big-ticket lineups, but the brand loyalty is exactly the same.
Baby Camera Built on a Golf Cart
Underneath the bodywork, this is still a 2017 E-Z-GO, not a street-legal Camaro. Power comes from a 48-volt battery pack and an AC electric motor driving the rear wheels, with the kind of relaxed performance you expect from a golf cart rather than a pony car. Hardware upgrades include independent front suspension, a limited-slip differential and 14-inch wheels, so it should ride more smoothly than the average fleet cart at your local course.
The Camaro look comes from custom-molded fiberglass front and rear fascias that mimic the sixth-gen car’s nose and tail. It is finished in Nightfall Gray with black and gray trim and orange accents, plus 50th-anniversary badges that tie it back to the full-size car. There is even an electric “frunk” up front for extra storage.
Course-Ready Cabin With a Sense Of Humor
Inside, the theme is “country-club Camaro.” The seats mix leather and cloth with orange inserts, the headliner is finished in suede, and there is a five-panel rear-view mirror for maximum visibility around the course. Practical touches include cup, ball and tee holders, a fold-down windshield for hot days and a rear mounting system for golf bags. It originally carried a window sticker of about $16,000 when new and recently received a fresh battery, which matters a lot more on a cart than mileage, since there is no odometer.
The condition is used but presentable: the listing notes scuffs and chips in the body, curb rash on the wheels and wear on interior trim and the driver’s seat. It is the same kind of honest patina you would expect on a classic Chevy that actually gets driven, whether that is a 1970 Chevrolet Nova or a mid-year icon like a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray.
Novelty Value at a Huge Discount
This Camaro golf cart sold for $6,565, or roughly 60 percent off its original $16,090-ish MSRP. That is not cheap for a golf cart, but it is relatively modest for a fully finished, brand-themed build with fresh batteries and a pile of accessories, including sand bottles, covers, a charger and the original window sticker.
More importantly, it is the sort of thing that will get more attention in a gated community than a regular side-by-side or a plain fleet cart, especially if the fairways are already full of Silverado and Corvette owners.
