Both the Mustang and Challenger undercut the Camaro in price
Enlarge PhotoThe
all-new Chevrolet Camaro was unveiled in July at GM's Design Center, complete with engine options and power outputs, but until recently we hadn’t seen any details about what specs or trim levels the rejuvenated muscle car would be available with. Earlier this week we saw an unofficial list of basic options for the new 2010 lineup, and now we have leaked images of the actual pre-order book that will greet customers in showrooms later this month.
The Camaro’s launch is still several months away but
Chevrolet dealers will start making the first pre-order sales on the 13th of this month.
The lineup will include the new LS, 1LT, 2LT, 1SS and the 2SS. The LT and SS versions will also be available with an optional RS package, which adds a number of features including 20in wheels, HID headlights, and special badging.
According to the previous list the new
Camaro will come generously equipped even for the entry-level LS. This base version still gets a 3.6L direct-injection V6 rated at 300hp (224kW) and 273lb-ft (370Nm) of torque, as well as a dual exhaust system, 18in steel wheels, Onstar Safe & Sound, XM satellite radio, Stabilitrak electronic stability control, six airbags, and a six-speaker stereo all fitted as standard. The only available option is floor mats.
Move up to the
range topping 2SS with the optional RS package and you get a 6.2L LS3 V8 rated at 422hp (314kW), as well as heated leather seats, 19in aluminum wheels, a premium Boston Acoustics nine-speaker stereo and an eventual heads-up-display system. Add the optional RS package and you get 20in wheels, a rear spoiler, and HID headlights.
The leaked ordering book, which was posted on the
CamaroZ28 forum, reveals new color options as well as a full accessories list. Some of the more interesting options include a Hurst shifter, 21in wheels, a tall wing spoiler, a full bodykit, custom striping and engine covers, and some performance mods such as a high-flow exhaust and intake system, and ‘shorty’ headers.

The problem I've found with bigger wheels is that the prices of the tires go up considerably. Even going from 17 to 18 took the price of the same tire up from $110 to about $140.
