a bit more fleshed out description

CarTribe has procured a few shots and the initial details of the production Chevrolet Camaro ahead of its official unveiling this Monday. According to their report, 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.

[Dasfinc]

I'm SOOOO glad they went back to the 'bumblebee' headlights.

The Nurninburg ones I saw had those weird as headlights on them.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

what the fuck is an LS and LT camaro? are these the same designations as the other GM cars like the crap cobalt LT, etc?

eh, its ok. i like the exterior but too bad its such a pig. any pricing info leaked yet?

 

[CamaroSS]

i know the lt was a model camaro way back in the day, i know cause i had one. ls... im not 100% sure if it was.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

[Mr Baytchos]

[Smokinhot]

[Yaj Yak]

[Stink Star]

at least the v-6 is near 300hp.

what does that matter? who here would get the shitty version?

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

females and wannabe's. you know like the guys that buy V6 mustangs...

 

[IDAFC21]

still cant decide if i like it or not

 

[Yaj Yak]

what does that matter? who here would get the shitty version?

not i.

its just kinda badass that the v6 camaro is making 4 less hp than a v8 mustang...

 

[slowchevy]

what does that matter? who here would get the shitty version?

:raises hand:

i've driven cars with that DI engine in it , they're quite fast for what the motor is. I'd buy it for fuel economy, and some performance, since it'd be a daily driver since I wouldn't be able to afford two cars at once. The 6.2's MPGS which are yet to be found out, is what would make or break the post above.

 

[Primalzer]

If im gonna buy something for fuel economy i'll get a Jetta TDI not a Camaro. If i'm spending the money i'm going for broke and getting the balls out version and I can have a beater that gets 30+mpg so i don't have to "daily" drive the 'Maro.

you dont buy that car for the fuckin fuel economy....plus the *** motor is gonna have the *** trim package too so its gonna look like shit with cloth seats and shitty wheels. and where did it say it was gonna be the DI 3.6? unless i read over it too fast i didnt see where it was the DI version. they do make a n/a 3.6 you know
