2012 SEMA Show in Las Vegas - GM's Booth:

Chevrolet Camaro Performance V6 Concept

tramtwo · 10-30-2012, 12:27 PM

Think we need to keep the decals on the side off... other than that THIS will be VERY popular if it makes it to production.

These are good times in the Camaro world!!!

camaro2lt · 10-30-2012, 12:31 PM

lets see some pics of the brakes and front splitter

shrinkdoc · 10-30-2012, 12:46 PM

So how will this effect 1/4 mi times? I mean isnt that what people really want?? There is nothing wrong with our current suspension because how many of us really bought our cars to hit a corner at 90 mph.??? We want more HP and Torq Chevy. What ppart of that don't you understand?

KMPrenger · 10-30-2012, 12:52 PM

I am very interested in seeing more images of that splitter.

Can you possibly get some shots of the front from the side? Maybe one closeup and one a bit futher away with the wheel in the shot?

Ummm.... I definitely wish mine cornered better around highway turns at 90 mph. Sometimes the body roll scares me even though I'm going significantly slower than our V8 counterparts

That's what the SS is for. This is for people that would like a 1LE but already own a V-6 Camaro. Haven't heard them say you could order this from the factory(though that would be cool). These parts will be available separately from your dealer. Pretty awesome that they're giving the V-6 guys a way to get to the track.

This is a camaro not a mustang. However, ford is learning 5/10 mustangs now have the "stripe delete" listed on their window stickers

right to travel · 10-30-2012, 01:10 PM

the stripes are for the show to highlight gm performance parts.
these more than likely wont be production cars. i think what they are trying to do here is what we have been asking for and creating OEM upgrade catalog to get parts from other models. which may mean that we get to upgrade without voiding warranties.

BowtieBelle · 10-30-2012, 01:12 PM

Why does the stripe go across the bottom of the quarter panel and door then stop? Because of the gills? Looks weird.

Would like to see under the hood.

Linker239 · 10-30-2012, 01:13 PM

Love this concept, it looks real promising, I really don't care for the single stripe though.

JCO2185 · 10-30-2012, 01:16 PM

love it!

2010_5thgen · 10-30-2012, 01:22 PM

gm needs to do more of this...swapping parts from the gm accesories bin. like the vette does. gives the buyer alot more options to keep their money in gm and car under warranty.

a better suspension will make you faster in and out of corners and help plant the power to the ground better.

Sikoriko · 10-30-2012, 01:52 PM

about time!

SNK · 10-30-2012, 01:53 PM

Do you think that the ZL1 dual mode exhaust will make the V6 sound good? I have a V6 so i'm not hating... I just haven't found an exhaust that makes enough difference for me to want it. I would be interested in the dual mode if it sounds significantly better.

bandit38 · 10-30-2012, 01:59 PM

All these concepts have the 10 Spoke ZL1/1LE wheels....I wonder if they will start selling those wheels in various finishes !

I'd love to have them in polished or chrome....just don't like the black finish much.

I'd like to know why that exhaust is available on the ZL1 with a automatic but not a SS with the automatic.

kold · 10-30-2012, 02:03 PM

i want to hear this beast with the ZL1 exhaust on, wonder if it sounds good

Blade · 10-30-2012, 02:04 PM

The hell with the splitter, I want to know what they did to fit the 1LE's 3.91 in there.

Probably because the ZL1 doesn't have AFM...

It would sound like a ford pinto when the AFM kicked in.

Sikoriko · 10-30-2012, 02:14 PM

like the 3:91 rear end myself, but those 20 look small for some reason, wider gap between tire and fender.
