The 2010 Chevrolet Camaro is bringing back the past, but better! Enthusiasts of
the traditional Camaro will immediately be drawn to the 2010, as it has several
characteristics that bring back fond memories of the 1969 version of this beast.
However, today's Camaro has drawn to it a completely different generation of
appreciative fans since its starring role in the Transformers movie a few years
ago. The 2010 model offers the technology of today, while maintaining the muscle
car feel of years gone by. This year's version will be offered in five different
trim options, the LS, 1LT, 2LT, 1SS and 2SS.
The old school look of the 2010 Camaro is in response to Ford and Dodge
introducing retro versions of the Thunderbird and Challenger. The new Camaro
offers a good mix of modern design and classic feel inside and out. The exterior
of the Camaro holds true to the old school, muscular form of the earlier Camaro,
yet Chevy has updated it just a bit with sleeker lines that give it a more up to
the minute look. There is an extensive list of options, depending on which trim
level you select, including four different wheel sizes (18, 19, 20, and 21), fog
lamps, and rear spoiler. GM has carried the retro theme to the inside of the car
as well. The instrument panels are reminiscent of the older Camaro, and this
design can be seen all through the interior.
Under the hood, the 2010 Camaro will provide the power and performance one would
expect in a car of this nature. The Chevy Camaro also has three beefy engine
choices. The first is a 300 horsepower 3.6 liter V6. The other two are both 6.2
liter V8s. One produces 400 horsepower, and the other will give you 422.
Available transmissions are a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic.
The list of features and technological gadgets is not unlike many of the new
vehicles of today. Just a few examples are USB and Bluetooth connectivity,
premium Boston Acoustics sound system, ultrasonic rear parking assist, OnStar,
and XM satellite radio. The 2010 Camaro will also offer a host of modern
standard safety features, such as antilock brakes, six standard airbags and
stability control. Optional rear park assist may be available as well; depending
on the model.
With a price tag of around $22,000 for the base model, the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro
is fairly reasonable. On the road, the Camaro's ride matches its muscular
appearance. This car has more than enough power, and actually more than some
might want to experience. However, this car should make quite a splash with its
affordable price and classic muscle car feel because the 2010 Camaro really is
the perfect blend of old and new. |
