2011 2dr Coupe 312-horsepower 3.6L V6

2017 2dr Coupe 455-horsepower 6.2L V8
8-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 There it is...the "Camaro Image." Years of Z-28's and IROC's have completely set the expectation (and not totally inaccurately, either) that Camaro's are driven by mullet-sporting, trucker-hat wearing, Lynyrd Skynyrd-rocking rednecks. Doesn't matter that Chevy now offers a machine that can out-corner a Ferrari 458 and out-lap...well, pretty much anything. It's still a redneck racecar. see full Chevrolet Camaro review
