2010 Chevy Camaro To Be Auctioned Off

tonks — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 12:30:10 +0000

The 2010 Chevy Camaro is still months away from its production date. But until that time comes Chevy has decided to win over some loving fans by auctioning it off. Chrysler and Ford have already auctioned off the brand new Challenger and Mustang – which brought in hundreds and possibly even thousands of dollars to a charity in need.

Now GM and the College of Creative Studies is hoping that they will have the same benefit. Anyone can go on eBay for the number three production Camaro. It is an SS model that is fully loaded and equipped with a 6.2 liter V8 engine that pushes out 422 horsepower and is mated to a six speed manual tranny.

The person to win the bid will take delivery of the Camaro at Suburban Chevrolet Cadillas Saab Hummer in Ann Arbor, MI in the Spring of 2009. Of course the delivery could be delayed. The auction ends October 25th and the price is already over $40,000.

Rendering Of Camaro Z28

tonks — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 15:25:33 +0000

When it comes to muscle cars we have seen many variations. Dodge has created three different Challenger models (R/T, SE, and SRT8) and the Ford Mustang has seen much more than this. Now we think that it might be time for the Camaro and we think that Chevy is thinking the same thing.

There is no official notice of this from Chevy yet so it isn’t confirmed. But that doesn’t stop many of us from dreaming about a new variation of the fifth-generation Camaro and it looks like other people agree with us.

Jinx is a designer on Camaro forums that has created renderings of what looks like a Camaro Z28. In his rendering the Camaro is equipped with a 6.2 liter supercharged LSA engine that could potentially produce 550 horsepower. In order to keep that engine covered there needs to be a sizeable budge to cover it.

The rendering also features a clear opening similar to the newest ZR1 and a carbon fiber splitter in the front. The lower air intake is large and feeds the intercooler and is flanked by functional brake cooling ducts.

Let’s hope that GM takes a look at this rendering and takes cues from it.

2010 Chevy Camaro Won’t Be Given Navigation System Till Late 2009

tonks — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 16:54:31 +0000

The new 2010 Camaro is going to receive many features. One of the most coveted new feature in any new car is the navigation system -which is great for those who have problems finding their way around any city. However, GM has chosen not to add this feature to the first of the Camaros.

Instead, GM will use its Turn-by-Turn directions, which are downloaded to the car via OnStar and are part of a monthly package owners must pay for. GM won’t be adding the usual navigation system until December of 2009. The Camaro will go on sale earlier that same year.

Unique Camaro Work Of Art

tonks — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 02:01:49 +0000

We always love to see enthusiasts show how much they love cars in the form of their unique artwork. British artist – Ian Cook decided to take a different route when it came to painting one of the best muscle cars on the market – the Camaro. He used remote control cars, drove them through choice paint colors, and then proceeded to use them as his paintbrush to create a work of art.

Ian’s artwork was named the “Popbank Color” and was displayed at the British International Motor Show. This is truly an honor for Ian who said that he even used a few GM RC cars to create the painting.

Next up will be a live demonstration of him painting a Chevrolet Lacetti World Touring Car, which requires, says Ian, “skill with the remote control cars.”

2010 Camaro Specs And Pictures Revealed

tonks — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:06:17 +0000

For a year or more we have been hearing about the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro and we have been waiting patiently to get some good pictures of both the exterior and the interior of the production version. CarTribe was able to get their hands on some and have graciously shared it with all of us car enthusiasts. The Camaro is set to be officially revealed Monday.

The Camaro will come in LS, LT and SS trim, equipped with either a six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed automatic. Of course, that doesn’t account for the very-obviously-marked RS car that is shown in the official photos, so who knows what the whole story is.

Engine choices include either a 296 hp, 3.6-liter V6 or a 416 hp 6.2-liter V8 which will feature cylinder deactivation to boost fuel economy. Underneath the retro sheetmetal is a full independent suspension and StabiliTrak traction control system. Four-pot Brembo brakes are mounted up front on the SS variant, and the 3,700-pound coupe will reportedly have a weight balance of 52/48, front/rear. The neuvo-retro theme is carried inside with a gauge cluster inspired by the 1969 model, along with leather seats and blue LED lighting.

2010 Chevy Camaro Is Official Vehicle For SEMA Auto Show

tonks — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 13:58:33 +0000

The release of the 2010 Camaro is just around the corner and because of that we can expect to see a good amount of them in November at the 2008 SEMA Autho Show in Las Vegas. The 2010 Camaro was given the title of Official Vehicle of the show and GM will take advantage of this accomplishment.

The automaker is currently accepting proposals for project vehicles, and we’re betting that everyone is scrambling to get their hands on a 2010 Camaro. With its LS-based V8 and retrotastic design, it won’t take long for a plethora of aftermarket parts to become available. The real question left to answer is when will GM debut the production version of the Camaro? It clearly has to happen at or before the SEMA Show in November.

2010 Chevy Camaro To Be Given Economical Engines

tonks — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 17:04:52 +0000

GM has made plans to equip the new Chevy Camaro with 4 cylinder engine as well as V6 and V8 engines. They are working to keep up with the rest of the competition and the other economical cars that are on the market. Because of these engine options they believe that 30% of the Camaro sales will be associated with the V8 models.

The bulk of sales will be of the 3.6 V6, at least until the four-cylinder models – probably using the turbocharged GM Ecotec 2.0-litre – arrive. However, a 425bhp top-line SS model is still said to be under consideration.

General Motors has confirmed that the Camaro will come in right-hand-drive form for the UK; it will arrive here in early 2010 with sales of around 600 cars a year planned. Half of these are expected to be convertible versions. While initially GM had considered only offering UK buyers high-spec V8s, this may now be revised.

UK To Receive Camaro Under Different Name

tonks — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 20:06:38 +0000

Chief Executive of Chevrolet Europe – Wayne Brannon – confirmed this week that the UK will be getting their very own version of the Chevy Camaro – which will go on sale in early 2010. There will be 1,000 coupe and convertible version of the car produced and each will be given a 6.0 liter 400 bhp engine.

300 of these units are said to be making their way to the UK after it has debuted at the London Motor Show. The only thing that is up for serious debate is where they will be selling the Camaro. Because people in the UK have more of a budget it is possible that they will sell the Camaro under a different brand much the same way that the Corvette is sold.
