Chevrolet Camaro News
-
Chevrolet told us... We were told that the automaker would only bring back the Z/28 moniker if there was a car that warranted the badge. You can't simply slap together a few performance bits, gather some marketing folk to drum up a cliche-laden press release, and then shove a poorly thought out machine down the throats of the waiting Bow Tie-brand fans. No, General Motors knows they need to deliver something special with a modern Camaro Z/28. The world wants to know if they've done that… and the answer is holy hell yes. They have. Let's get something straight right from the outset...

Quick Reactions Save Camaro ZL1 From Drag Strip Disaster
And now for something (maybe not so) completely unexpected. First, how does a Camaro ZL1 on bias ply slicks lose it altogether midway down a drag strip? Our bet is a poor shift of some sort--either a 3-2 instead of a 3-4 or a really brutal upshift. So maybe that's not so inexplicable. But what...

2014 Chevrolet Camaro Sees The Return Of The Z/28: Video

Though it isn’t set for an official debut until tomorrow at the 2013 New York Auto Show, the facelifted 2014 Chevrolet Camaro was revealed earlier today on the Live! with Kelly and Michael morning talk show.
