Chevy Dealer Says 2012 Camaro Z28 with Supercharged V8 Production Begins in January 2012


The much anticipated Camaro Z28 will begin rolling off the production line in January 2012, according to a dealer that spilled the beans over at the Camaro5 forums after attending a National Chevrolet Dealer’s meeting.

Here's what BeckyD/RodgersChevrolet noted about the Z28 on the Camaro forums:



  • 2012 Camaro Z28 production begins January 1, 2012
  • Internally referred to as the "HP Model"
  • 6.2L supercharged engine
  • Magnetic Ride suspension
  • 285F / 330R tires
  • Hood design to have louvre/slat design seen in spy photos (dealers in attendance were shown a gray Z28 model)
  • Slight (not major) updates to the interior, with some brighter trimwork

The dealer also gave out some additional info on the upcoming 2012MY Camaro, which is slated to arrive in dealership this summer. According to the tipster, GM told dealers that is preparing a 45th Anniversary special edition package with a "carbon flash color", all black interior and unique wheels, which will be available on both the coupe and convertible models.

VIDEO: Female Driver in Camaro gets Cornered by Police but Doesn't Know When to Stop...


Trying to get away from the police in the first place is downright stupid, but the female driver of this fourth-generation Chevrolet Camaro drop-top took stupidity to a whole new level when she tried to rear-end / ram a police car that had her cornered on the road. The lady driver huffed and puffed her Camaro's rear wheels but in the end, she gave up. As for the driver of the older-generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan that can't make a turn, the video speaks for itself.

New Car Sport and Fast Chevrolet Camaro Review

New Car Sport and Fast Chevrolet CamaroNew Car Sport and Fast Chevrolet Camaro Silver and Black Color

Since General Motors ended production of its convertible Camaro in 2002, enthusiasts have long wanted him to come back, then GM has made good on in 2007 when they announced that the car is, indeed, would be put back into production. All new for 2010, the latest Chevrolet Camaro back and better than before.

I have a few more weeks before my first test drive, so my report is based on seeing the car for a couple of auto shows in Detroit and Los Angeles, communicating with officials who hand Chevrolet in car design, and analysis of company documentation. The newest model is sold in the first four to six months of production, but the test car will be at my dealer over the next few weeks. I'd already planned my first drive.

Prices for the base V6 powered LS Camaro will be $ 22,995, and the engine V8 Camaro SS will sell for $ 30,995. In October 2008, General Motors began taking orders for the car, five months before the production model rolled off the Brampton, Ontario, assembly line.

A high performance Camaro SS with a monstrous 6.2L V8 is also available, yielding 422 horsepower and 408 lb.-feet of torque. That engine is based on the LS3, a powerplant that can be found under the hood of a Corvette.

So if you're looking for the right balance of performance and fuel economy, you'll want to keep the Chevrolet Camaro in mind, a car that competes with the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger in the important pony (muscle) car segment.

2011 Camaro SS Convertible Neiman Marcus Edition, Now on Video


Following on from Tuesday's presentation of the special edition version of the forthcoming 2011 Camaro SS Convertible that will be offered in this year's Nieman Marcus Christmas catalog, Chevrolet released the first videos of the car with GM's people talking us around the design details.

The Nieman Marcus edition of GM's drop-top muscle car will be produced in a limited run of 100 units, each powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine with pricing set at $75,000 a piece. The regular Camaro Convertible will be given its public premiere at the Los Angeles Auto Show in late November. Click through for the videos, or check out our previous post for all the details on this special edition (but obviously overpriced) model.

First Publicly Available 2011 Camaro Convertible Fetches $205,000


The promise of being the owner of the first available production version of the yet-to-be-released 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible was more than enough to make an unnamed collector drop $205,000 for the car at last weekend's Barrett-Jackson Auction. But at least the sale was for a good cause as 100 per cent of proceeds from the winning bid will go to the YMCA of Southern Nevada.

The car shown at the auction was the Camaro Convertible Concept. The actual production model seen in the teaser shots we added in the gallery below is scheduled to make its world premiere later this fall -most likely at the LA Auto Show- and go on sale across the States early next year.

General Motors said that for historical purposes, it will keep the first production example of the 2011 Camaro Convertible.

GM to Auction Production 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible on Friday, Debut Announced for this Fall (LA?)


We've yet to see the final production version of the 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible, but one lucky collector will have the chance to be become the first owner of the car on Friday, several months before it arrives (in both V6 and V8 flavors) in showrooms in the first quarter of 2011.

To explain, General Motors has tied the knot with Greg Heinrich, owner of Fairway Chevrolet in Las Vegas, to offer the second production example of the upcoming 2011 Camaro Convertible at the Barrett-Jackson Auction on Friday (Sept. 24) at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino. All proceeds from the auction will benefit the YMCA of Southern Nevada.

For the record, the first production copy of the car will be kept by GM for historical purposes.

The Detroit automaker said the winning bidder can opt for color, engine, transmission, trim and factory installed equipment. The buyer will also have the option to take delivery of the car at a dealership in their hometown OR at the GM Heritage Museum in Detroit.

Understandably, GM will show the concept version of the car at the auction and not the actual production model which according to the company, will make its debut later this fall. We assume this means GM will unveil the 2011 Camaro Convertible at the Los Angeles Auto Show in late November.

2010 New Chevrolet Camaro Sports Car UFC Limited Edition

Most great and amazing sport elegant car 2010 Chevrolet Camaro interior design and exterior body kit design that will make you interesting. The UFC sports car maker now a days launched it is teaming up with Findlay Customs and Modern Muscle Las Vegas to release 10 Limited Edition UFC Chevrolet Camaros sports car. UFC, in combination with Findlay Customs and Modern Muscle Las Vegas will build the limited-edition 2010 UFC Camaros sports car complete with 650 Super-charged powerful engine horsepower and one-of-a-kind vehicles features which will create even the most die-hard UFC fan or gear head stand up and get notice.
2010 New Chevrolet Camaro Sports Car UFC Limited Edition
The 2010 Chevrolet Camaro sports car looks like a new vehicle, but it was built from existing GM parts from other models. They started with the chassis architecture of the impressive Pontiac G8 and engines from Cadillac and Covette. GM made the new Camaro drop-dead gorgeous, with high performance, and affordable.
The interior of the new Camaro is comfortable and materials are good, but the exterior styling is where it shines. The stitched leather wrap on the steering wheel is nice, and the bucket seats are comfortable, with decent bolstering, but may not be enough to keep an aggressive driver in his or her place during aggressive cornering. 
The front seat slides 8.5 inches, the steering wheel tilts and telescopes, and the seat can be raised up for better visibility, so drivers of all sizes will fit. The excellent leather upholstery is available in black, gray, beige and two-tone Inferno Orange.
The climate control buttons on the center stack didn't seem to be designed for ease of touch, but more for looks, but I have seen worse. Visibility through the windshield is good despite the long hood and raked windshield, thanks to careful location of the driver's seat and the ability to raise it. Rear visibility over the driver's shoulder isn't very good, but then it's impossible to make it good with a chopped roofline that gives it its sporty look.
The new Camaro sports car succeeds for all the reasons to buy this sports car, great looks and styling, a very potent and efficient engine borrowed from Cadillac, great performance and handling, and a good price point. I have test driven the Dodge Challenger SRT8, and the Ford Mustang GT. For my money I would choose the new Camaro sports car.
The first UFC Camaro will be auctioned off at Barrett-Jackson's Orange County collector car auction taking place June 25-27 at the OC Fair & Events Center.  The winning bidder will also come away with a UFC experience package that includes an inaugural drive with UFC President Dana White, backstage VIP access to a UFC event, meet and greets with UFC fighters, an autographed OCTOGON book and UFC gear.  
The Camaro is being auctioned for the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, a charity dedicated to providing financial assistance to dependents of US military personnel lost in the line of duty.

The History of the Iconic Chevrolet Camaro


There have been plenty of American-made muscle cars over the years, and one of the perpetual favorites in that elite group is the Chevrolet Camaro. Although its original production run ended official in 2002, popular demand revived the model and the 5th generation Camaro began production in 2009. Here's a thumbnail sketch of the history of this American classic.

When the Ford Mustang took America by storm in the early 1960's, Chevrolet saw a need to reply in kind. The result was the introduction of its Camaro in 1967. The name for the model has no real literal meaning, but its name begins with a "C" like all Chevy models of at that time and the name's root suggests friendship (as in Cam-araderie). It was technically classified as a "compact car" though the Camaro and its contemporaries began being known as pony cars, muscle cars, etc.

The Camaro captured the American imagination but it was the 2nd generation design introduced in 1970 (and continuing production for another 11 years!) that became an iconic part of the United States motoring scene. Souped-up models became popular for street and closed-circuit racing: a tradition that continues today.

When production ceased in 2002, the stage was already set for the revival of the Camaro. Racing enthusiasts today still favor this model for drag racing, and it never lost its iconic status, appearing in movies such as The Transformers. Thanks to its reintroduction, 2010 Camaro performance cars are set to hit the tracks again in the GT class of the Grand Am Road Racing Championship.

The Camaro is an American classic whose lasting popularity refuses to wane.

For those people who want more than just another cookie-cutter car off the assembly line such as 2010 Camaro performance, Fastlane Inc is the answer. Find out more details at http://www.fastlaneturbo.com/. Ryan Coisson is a freelance writer.
