It is rumored that this year Camaro lovers will get to take a peak of the new 2012 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show. GM has kept the 2012 Camaro hush-hush and has not released much information on it. For now, we have to rely on rumors and spy shots until its reveal on the auto show.
However, it seems that the new Camaro Z28 will have a supercharged V8 engine 6.2 liter LSA with 556 horsepower, the same engine on the Cadillac CTS-V. The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro is as badass as ever, but the car's principal shortcomings will remain at least until the car's next full redesign.
The four-seat Camaro comes as a coupe or convertible with a V-6 or V-8 engine. We test-drove an automatic V-6 convertible and a stick-shift, 45th-anniversary V-8 coupe. Compare all 2012 Camaro’s here, or see all changes for the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro here.
Our convertible's six-speed automatic up shifted smoothly and kicked down to lower gears with little delay — not always a strong suit of GM's six-speed automatics. The V-8 Mustang shifts more easily, as does the manual V-6 Camaro, which we've driven in years past. With 400 hp and 410 pounds-feet of torque — 426 hp and 420 pounds-feet in stick-shift cars — the Camaro's 6.2-liter V-8 blows the doors off most cars from a stop, on the highway and everywhere in between. Alas, weight does hurt the Camaro in the muscle-car wars. The 5.0-liter Mustang V-8 lacks the Camaro's low-end torque but makes up for lost ground at higher revs, and the Ford's weight advantage (as much as 377 pounds between the V-8 coupes) lets it beat the Chevy on the drag strip. Our friends at Motor Week tested both V-8 cars in stick-shift convertible form, and the Camaro hit the quarter mile in 13.4 seconds, while the 'Stung blazed through in 13 flat. (Chevrolet does have the 5.7-liter V-8 Dodge Challenger beat, but that car is even heavier — and larger.)
The V-8 Camaro coupe gets a new performance suspension this year; V-8 convertibles and all V-6 models retain last year's setup. You can't see out of the Camaro. In the Camaro, a hulking rearview mirror obscures half the tiny windshield. The side windows are low, squeezed between a high belt line and a low roof.
The front seats offer decent legroom, and our moon roof-free cars had good headroom, despite the low roofline. The Camaro has not been crash-tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
Standard features on the $23,200 Camaro LS include one-touch power windows, 18-inch steel wheels, and air conditioning, cruise control and power-reclining front seats. The 45th-anniversary package adds custom paint, unique 20-inch wheels, and enough red, white and blue decals to make you forget the Camaro is built in Canada.
Check all the boxes, and the Camaro convertible tops out well north of $45,000. Brake hard. Breathe easy- is what the Chevrolet Company has to say in favor of its favorite child the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro. In a most recent press release, the General Motors proudly claimed the 2012 Camaro as a high performance vehicle and not just a Camaro with more power. Moreover, 2012 Chevy Camaro bears a dual-exhaust system, perfectly designed for counter responding the engine rpm and creates a tone that is soothing to ears.
Short pickups to suit the track needs and swift handling for high traffic streets; the new 2012 Camaro has got it all. Adding more on that note, the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro bears a newly added electric power steering system and Magnetic ride control, offering both tour and sports modes. Forged 20-inch lightweight aluminum alloy wheels and Goodyear 20 inches tires are also exclusively included in the package of the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro .
With marvelously sculpted exterior, this car comes with all color variant that the Camaro has to offer. The most noticing part of this upcoming 2012 Chevrolet Camaro is its much renovated unique fascia and front splitters that combine rear diffuser and side rocker extensions.
