The last Camaro concept in Chevrolet’s line-up at SEMA Show is the Camaro Chroma based on an SS/RS model. It is painted in Summit White and is powered by a LS3 V-8 engine equipped with current accessories, including a performance intake, shorty headers and performance exhaust system.
The customization package includes: a new silver stripe package, 21-inch wheels, "Blade" rear spoiler, rear fender vent graphics and accessory front grille with body-color outer frame, a Victory Red engine cover and a Hurst short-throw shifter for the six-speed manual transmission
It comes with no surprise that the Jay Leno Chevrolet Camaro is the coolest and most radical of all the Camaro concepts at SEMA. And while everyone focused their attention of the SS version, he decided that a standard V6 version can also become a more powerful model.
So, with the addition of a pair of Turbonetics T-3 turbochargers the 3.6L direct injected V-6 delivers a total of 425 hp! That’s with 40% more than on a standard Camaro LS or LT.
Besides the incredible amount of power, the Jay Leno Camaro also features: a larger-capacity Be-Kool radiator and a custom exhaust system, as well as a Centerforce-supplied clutch and pressure plate for the six-speed manual transmission. There is also a new front fascia with custom fog lamps and integral brake cooling vents and the heritage-inspired vent styling in front of the rear wheels has been replaced with functional brake cooling ducts.
The Camaro Dusk is a concept car inspired by the "style of young and urban professionals". It features an aggressive looking with a lowered ride height and a Berlin Blue exterior color.
The list of accessories includes: a racing-inspired front splitter, rocker extensions, a rear diffuser, 21-inch wheels from BBS, taillamp and fog lamp bezels that match the finish of the wheels and an exhaust system and Brembo brakes from a Camaro SS.
The interior of the concept is designed in the Jet Black and Sedona style with complementing features including footwell lighting, premium door sill plates, Jet Black and Sedona, with complementing features including footwell lighting, premium door sill plates and other details.
The first Camaro in Chevrolet’s line-up at SEMA Show is the Camaro Synergy - a concept car painted in Synergy Green exterior color. This is not an ordinary color, Chevrolet announced it will be offered on a special-edition Camaro in the first half of 2010.
Besides the cool green, the Camaro Synergy also features: 21-inch wheels, with a black center finish and polished rim, ground effects kit including a pronounced rocker moldings, a rear diffuser-type styling piece and a front spoiler, Cyber Grey Rally hood stripes, a rear spoiler and performance air intake.
The concept also comes with a Pedders coil-over lowering kit and a set of large, Brembo brakes. On the interior Chevrolet combined the Jet Black with Synergy Green accent.
Have you counted how many customized Camaro will be in Las Vegas? We lost count a long time now, but this doesn’t mean we do not enjoy every single customized announced for SEMA.
And today is time for a new one: the HAVOC Camaro Aero Kit that includes: 20" HAVOC wheels, available in both black chrome PVD and bright chrome PVD coatings, lower front chin spoiler with brake cooling openings, side lower rockers that feature accent lines that tie-in with the front chin spoiler, an aggressively styled rear spoiler, rear two-piece diffuser with paintable outer section and optional carbon fiber hydrographics on the center section, designed to provide an assertive look and hide stock exhaust cans and custom side and hood graphics package.
Stop the presses, there will be another Chevrolet Camaro at the world’s greatest aftermarket car show, SEMA. However this won’t be any ordinary pony car. This bow tie creation will come from General Marketing Capital Incorporated and pay homage to the great Don Yenko. If you aren’t exactly sure as to who this mysterious man is, you should know that it is because of Don Yenko that you could buy a 1966 Chevrolet Camaro with a high output 427 cubic inch V8 right off the showroom floor. The 2010 Yenko Camaro Prototype is built on the modern day Camaro SS platform with its 6.2 Liter fuel injected LS3 that puts out a total of 430 HP from the factory, but in true Yenko fashion, this one will be powered by a 600 HP high performance supercharged and intercooled LS motor mated to a Tremec six speed manual.
The Yenko Camaro promises to be more than a go fast package in a stock looking boy. The 2010 Camaro will feature the signature Yenko Super Car stripe package, a set of retro 22 inch Yenko billet aluminum wheels and a few official emblems to set this car apart from from ordinary pony cars. The interior of the 2010 Yenko will feature leather seating with the SYC logos embroidered into the headrests as well as Yenko Super Car sill plates and embroidered floor mats. GMCI claims that they are only in the Phase I of the Yenko’s performance upgrades and will soon be offering Phase II and III stages that will not only increase power, but the handling as well.
We here at TopSpeed are pretty familiar with Tjin’s work. Last year at SEMA he brought two customized cars: a Honda Fit and a Pontiac G8. This year he got even more ambition and focused his attention of a 2010 Camaro SS.
Built in conjunction with General Motors and Real AutoWorks, the Tjin Edition Camaro SS comes with a two-tone paint scheme: metallic green combined with matte dark green, a vented hood and lip spoiler from Revolution Styling and LED lighting from LightWurkz and Ignited HID. Tjin also created a one-off set of 22” and 24” iForged Seneka wheels finished with carbon fiber barrels, brushed faces and black bolts.
The LS3 engine has also been modified: there is a Vortech supercharger, JE Pistons components, American Racing headers, MagnaFlow exhaust and a Nitrous Express direct port setup.
There are so many customized Camaros stampeding their way into SEMA that we have lost count as to exactly how many, however this limited edition example has been designed by the NASCAR specialists at Hendrick Motorsports and they only plan on producing 25 of them for the pony car’s 25th anniversary. Priced at $76,181 the Hendrick Camaros are sure to live up to the hype, after all they will be put together by the coach builders at Callaway Cars. If you aren’t familiar with the name, then you might want to look into the Callaway C16.
The 25th Anniversary Camaro SS will deliver a maximum output of 582 HP, up from a standard 426 HP, thanks to Callaway’s Eaton TVS series supercharger, a high flow air filter, low restriction exhaust and an engine tune to make it all work together. The Callaway built, Hendrick badged Chevrolet Camaro will sprint from 0 to 60 MPH in only 3.9 seconds and run the quarter mile in just 11.89 seconds at 120.1 MPH. Besides the engine upgrades the special edition Camaro SS will also benefit from a carbon fiber front splitter, rear spoiler, rear diffuser and a set of stylish rocker panels to round out the exterior makeover.
The American tuning house Hennessey has revealed the final specifications on the limited edition 2010 HPE700 LS9 Camaro based on the all new Camaro SS. The HPE700 is powered by a 6.2 liter supercharged LS9 Engine from the Corvette ZR-1 that has been tweaked by HPE to output an incredible ground punding 725 HP and 741 lb-ft of torque. The HPE700 Camaro with the heart of a super car can make the run from 0 to 60 MPH in just 3.5 seconds and complete the standing quarter mile in 11.3 seconds at 126 MPH while the new pony car’s top speed is increased to 201 MPH.
If this is the sort of thing that tickles your fancy, then hurry up, Hennessey only plans on building 24 examples of the HPE700 and all but 10 have already been spoken for. If these numbers aren’t impressive enough for you, HPE has announced that they are also offering an 850 HP and 1000 HP twin turbocharged upgrades
