2011 Camaro pricing & information announced! HUD, Synergy Green, V6 rated at 312hp!

[n!ght r!der]

-synergy green SS that should be cool.. I'm guessing you still can't get RS pkg with green so thats not cool..

-HUD

-the V6 cars were underrated, and now we know the real numbers.. but the cars aren't any faster.. oh well the v6 are pretty quick anyway IMO

-I was expecting some info that was a little cooler but its all good..

Sure as hell hope they plan on doing something with the V8. They've been getting crap for the suspension from day one and if they don't change it or offer some better gears, well, that's awful.

GM...you get a big thank you for listening to those of us who said HUD would be awesome in these cars. Will I upgrade to HUD? I doubt it, but congrats to the people who get it in 2011! I have driven a 2008 Z06 with HUD and it rocks! Distracting? Not at all. Pay attention to the road and you don't have to look at it any more than you move your head up and down from the gauges and speedo.

My 2010 2LT/RS has 312HP? Nothing wrong with that at all! And we are getting more with reasonably minor bolt-on mods.

Synergy Green...love the color, but I would rather see one driving down the street than to be the person driving it.

Overall, I still think GM has come a long way, even had a small surprise for those of us who own 2010 V6 Camaros and it's still great to see GM showing the world they can still make outstanding automobiles!

THANK YOU GM! YOU ROCK!

Honestly man it might be this year it might be next.

It would not surprise me either way.

But GM will do something. I can promise that.

heres the quote,

"There were no actual changes made to the Camaro's V6 engine that resulted in a power increase. Rather, Chevy says the current 304-hp rating was conservative and a new SAE certification resulted in 312 hp. So that means anyone who bought a 2010 Camaro V6 shouldn't feel shortchanged, as their engine is just as powerful as the 2011 model that will start production on June 7th"

Change it, you know you want to. Just because GM was playing gamesmenship with under quoting your hp numbers doesn't mean you have to stick to that initial, unofficial number. Your car has 312 hp, not 304. Enjoy!

Whoever made and greenlighted synergy green needs to be kicked in the nuts. And we're not gong to respond to the mustangs new power? Nothing on the SS? I want more hp on the ss. They got rid of abm for green. That's stupid. I promise that green will sell like crap

[Sax1031]

I really like the AMB Camaros I have seen pictures of but the Synergy Green looks good in my eyes also. I do hate for the guys, and gals, that wanted ABM that it was not offered again. :(

Why are you assuming that? All it is going to be is a new color choice for $325 extra, niothing about limiting any other options... I bet Every normal option on every trim level will be available with the Green....take that to the bank.

this thread has over 550 posts and i dont think that i am going to read all the pages so i am just going to ask, can those of us with the 2010 camaro get the HUD? i mean i am sure that the 2011 1lt will have a spot for it with a delete panel. so can the 2010s buy them from the performance parts store or something?

Third model year to get the suspension right and offer some optional gears? That's pretty unacceptable if you plan on being competitive at all.

Hopefully this isn't the only thing GM announces, but I have a feeling it is.

We are not sure if dealers will offer up a conversion to allow HUD on the 2010s.

From what it looks like it would be expensive and a pretty involved modification to do.

i did the same thing, the great people of camaro 5 were great about it (expect the one mad that posted after me, then deleted his post)

and i do not think it would be an easy mod, however it is possible. There is not 'blank' in the 2010 dash, so i think it would be verry intensive, but anything is possible
