We were excited when we heard that GM would be bringing back the Camaro and pulling it out of retirement. Now we are even more excited to hear that GM is bringing back the Z/28 variant of the 2010 Camaro. The new model – which is already in development – has been given a new rear spoiler, front bumper, re-shaped rear bumper, and 20” wheels.
Underneath the hood is a 6.2 liter supercharged LSA V8 engine that comes straight from the Cadillac CTS-V and pushes out 556 horsepower and 551 pound foot of torque. The top speed is said to be around 193 mph for the manual version and 175 for the automatic. This will give it the ability to rev from 0 to 96 km/h in 4.1 seconds.
GM revealed their redesigned yellow Camaro that was used during the filming of “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” during the Chicago Auto Show. GM Vice President of Global Design – Ed Wellburn – worked closely with the director of the two movies – Michael Bay to create a design that would work well with the sequel. They had to work the new look into the plot.
Those who are looking forward to getting their hands on the new Shelby GT500 Mustang and the 2010 Chevy Camaro can do so and help others in return. The two new muscle cars are being auctioned for charity.
General Motors will be auctioning off the rights to the very first model of the 2010 Chevy Camaro while Ford will be selling the rights to the first model of the 2010 Shelby GT500. Both will be auctioned on January 11th – 18th at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Arizona. These are only two of 14 cars that will be auctioned off.
