Official GM Camaro Launch in Colombia - Hennessey - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Sales@Hennessey · 10-21-2010, 09:51 AM

Yesterday was a very big day for the GM Enthusiasts in Columbia waiting on the Chevrolet Camaro! The 2011 Camaro was officially released yesterday to the public. Also offered to those waiting on the vehicle for purchase, the ability to upgrade the vehicles to Hennessey Performance Packages. Hennessey Performance was excited to work on this combined effort with GM Columbia and also had a 2011 Hennessey HPE650 at the event for viewing and testing. The official importer of GM for Columbia is a Hennessey Dealer for South America.

Check out the video taken from those in attendance for the event!

Holy Smokes..

... that was one hell of an entry...

*radz28* · 10-21-2010, 01:34 PM

I just noticed this on Jalopnik but missed it here, LOL! They missed the release of CAMARO as the reason for this event, though...

That sometimes happens when you have a High Horsepower version of a vehicle doing massive burnouts huh? In all seriousness, this is a big thing for South America to get the Camaro and enjoy what many of us have for over a year now. More videos ad pictures are to follow as they are released from GM to us.

How can you not just smile and laugh like a child when watching these.

The Great KJ · 10-21-2010, 07:13 PM

No tires left on that

Jay_LHD3 · 10-21-2010, 08:05 PM

Hell yeah!!!!!

Hoss · 10-21-2010, 08:07 PM

Does Hennessey have good Camaro sales from these shows in places like Columbia. I am guessing there is lots of money still in Columbia, I would be thinking SUV or truck sales.

The donuts looked like fun.

DroptopZ · 10-21-2010, 08:17 PM

I hear the Columbian Camaro can't handle though...

Something about following the white line...?

SIXJAK · 10-21-2010, 08:23 PM

Well okay then. Time for a new pair of rear shoes. Kinda brings out the kid in everyone, no?

BriansCamaro · 10-21-2010, 08:32 PM

So I am wondering if Colombia enjoys the same warranty on the Camaro as the U.S. given the amped entry and driving style!

I hear tell the drivetrain runs at a much higher metabolic rate and the cars tend to run for much longer periods of time without rest. Seriously... it will be good to have some of our S.A. brethren represented at Camaro5 as they bring the new King of the Road to their country. Ole!

Ject · 10-21-2010, 11:46 PM

Wonder what exhaust that is

Dalefj · 10-21-2010, 11:53 PM

BRITCAM5 · 10-22-2010, 12:42 AM

That's awesome! I would love a Hennessey Camaro!

Blue_Shark · 10-22-2010, 12:51 AM

I WISH WE CAN DO DONUTS LIKE DIS HERE IN DA U.S.

Z28RockStar · 10-22-2010, 02:06 AM

aight, . . . . . .

I'd drive it.

600hp-lpe · 10-22-2010, 07:58 AM

They have to drive just as far as some of us to the C5Fest...

Actually I just google'd it -
Columbia is closer than I am to C5fest2...

and they need to drive across all of Mexico, panama, Nicaragua, guatamala, etc....
