Video review of the 2010 Camaro and a look back at the 1967 Camaro - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

At time of 5:06 on the video it states the fuel economy of the SS with Manual Transmission on "regular" gas. Is it possible that they ran the 0-60 and 1/4 mile with regular gas and had the engine management system performing at a lower level since premium gas is recommended for the Camaro SS?

Is there a video of a V6 review??? They show an IBM V6 in the end of the first video.

I have not found an in depth video review of the V6 2010 Camaro yet. Motorweek did a "car keys" quicky on the V6, but not a full review that I have seen. I have seen a few V6 Camaro comparos to the Hyunday Genesis but not focused on the V6 Camaro. I know it kicks ass for a V6, thus I traded my V8 75' Camaro for the V6 2010. I want to drive this car daily and just couldn't justify a 6.2 Litre V8 for daily driving. My old Camaro was a weekend only car.... not this one!

It was a pleasure posting, it is the least I can do considering how helpful everyone has been!

Thanks for this post. Good review

he says the SS comes with 19, 20 or 21 inch wheels, I thought/think it comes with min. 20's

I noticed that hood when I was re-compressing that vid. It looks oh so similar to the 4th gen's hood's yet on the 5th gen. It lookes so Chevy-Corvette-Camaro. (nonsense Chevy banter, I know) I really like that hood and may consider it if it comes up on the aftermarket for my 2010... SEMA may unlock a few surprises! eB

The test car is a 1SS without the RS package. Your RS package has HID lights and halo LEDs for parking lights, instead of the setup you saw in the video, which is an old incandescent bulb set up for headlights and parking lights.

As an American living abroad, ( Northern Europe ) I'm really appreciative when someone takes the trouble to post these videos.
Thank you for posting. When I lived in the USA, I used to watch this program weekly. It was fun to be able watch see the story of the 1967 and it's birth, very cool stuff. I do remember fondly when these came out.
