Exclamation 2012 Camaro - New Color and Options Info

Reported on HOMEPAGE.

Yes, it's not yet even 2011, but some info on the 2012 Camaro has already come to light. The 2012 model is due sometime in middle of 2011 (June-July) and will feature the following new color and options.

Note: these may not be inclusive of all the new options/features and do not reflect any potential styling changes. Info courtesy of BeckyD@RodgersChevrolet

  • New V6 engine option: "LFX 3.6L SIDI, DOHC, VVT, E85 MAX, Alum GM" (see HERE for discussion)
    • The LFX should displace 3.6L, like the current V6 found in the Camaro. And it's packed to the brim with advanced technologies like Spark-Ignition Direct-Injection, Dual Overhead Cams, Variable Valve Timing, and E85 capability!!
  • New Carbon Flash Metallic (aka Black Granite) color (2SS and 2LT only)
  • 45th Anniversary Appearance Package (2SS and 2LT only)
  • 3 sets of 20" wheel designs (likely one for 45th anniversary package)
  • Rear view camera (2SS, 1SS, 2Lt, and 1LT)
  • Suspension system special ride and handling (FE4) (2SS coupe, 1SS coupe only)
  • No mention of navigation system (yet?)

The 2012 camaro colors will be:

  • Carbon Flash
  • Silver Ice
  • Summit White
  • Black
  • Red Jewel
  • Cyber Gray
  • Victory Red
  • Rally Yellow
  • Inferno Orange
  • Imperial Blue

Many of today's cars/trucks with rear view camera's are located in the interior rear view mirror's. So the inclusion of a rear view camera no longer requires a nav system.

  • Rear view camera (2SS, 1SS, 2Lt, and 1LT)


What are the odds that they will get rid of the rear sensors if they use a rear camera instead?

+1...This is most likely the route GM will take IMO.

GM really hates blue.... weird. I would've thought for sure that they'd be announcing a new blue for 2012. IBM is too dark!

Anyway, the backup camera is nice. I can't wait to see what the appearance packages look like! I'll be jealous of course!

I'm excited that they're adding suspension options as well. This may shut up MT regarding the loose suspension. ...And they're upgrading the interior! This had better shut reviewers up! Again, I'll be jealous, but you can't wait to buy forever, they always improve the next year!

hopefully they offer rear end gear options like the enemy does and factory Chrome wheels would be great to.
