    Your humble editor will be heading to sunny Southern California to drive the 2011 Camaro Convertible this week, and I'd like to know if any of you in readerland have any questions for myself or the Camaro engineers, PR folks, and designers, regarding the upcoming 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible.

    Chevrolet Promises Camaro News At Barrett-Jackson Auction Tonight

    Chevrolet is promising to break some Camaro news tonight at the Barrett-Jackson Auction in Scottsdale, Ariz., but the company isn't saying what.

    Could The Camaro Run In NASCAR?

    One of the criticisms constantly leveled at NASCAR's Sprint Cup Series is that the cars used in the series don't match reality. The Ford Fusion, Toyota Camry, and Chevrolet Impala are all front-wheel-drive mid-size sedans in production form, yet their bodies adorn rear-wheel-drive platforms that...

  • 2011 Chevrolet Camaro

    The Chevrolet Camaro and American rock star Kid Rock are perhaps two of the more well-known symbols of Detroit, and in honor of the musician's 40th birthday, he was given a brand-new Camaro SS. NASCAR star Jimmie Johnson did the honors, presenting the "Cowboy" with a black SS with black wheels, black-wall tires, and the number 40 painted on the doors. The fuel-filler door is stamped with the words "Made in Detroit" while the hood had an "American Bad Ass" logo. Kid Rock's party was held at Ford Field in downtown Detroit, and the Camaro was uncovered before being hoisted by a lift. Talk about...

Sure, we'd heard that GM (NYSE:GM) is using the name "HP Edition," but we figured that was just internal speak. But now we're not so sure...

    The dust has barely settled on the launch of the new Chevrolet Camaro Convertible, which has entered the market with a 2011 model year tag, but already the first details for the car’s 2012 model year have started to seep. Although unconfirmed by Chevrolet, the new 2012 model year Camaro is expected to feature new paint and trim options, as well as a brand new V-6 engine. Codenamed the LFX V-6, the new engine should give the Camaro a leg-up over its Ford Mustang rival thanks to a number of fuel saving technologies and expected 330 horsepower output--25 more ponies than the Mustang. The...

    The driver of this Chevrolet Camaro is probably not one of the smartest people out on the roads, as evidenced by her futile attempts to evade a pursuing police car by reversing into it. All she manages to achieve is creating a lot of smoke from the burnt rubber of her tires. Also keep an eye out...

    When the police pull you over because you've been careening recklessly through a suburban neighborhood, you shouldn't slam your Camaro into reverse and smack into a police car several times.

    Here are the ten-best reasons to buy a Camaro in 2011: 1. A Z28 model is likely to join the lineup, and it could happen in 2011 as a 2012 model. 2.
