2011 Chevrolet Camaro Intimidator


 
  Review 
 
   

Sometimes even dealerships get in on the tuning action, putting together packages to pull in some extra revenue and make up for lackluster sales. Currently, the most powerful Camaro offered by Chevrolet is the 550 HP ZL1, but Dale Earnhardt Chevrolet has perked up our ears with their Camaro Intimidator developing 704 HP.

The name chosen for this special edition could not be more appropriate considering it houses a supercharged V8 engine that produces an intimidating 704hp and 695 lbs-ft of torque at 11psi boost. Bumps and bruises will be absorbed with a highly modified suspension and chassis, while the new exhaust system, brakes, and fuel system will take care of everything else.

The added power is also illustrated on the exterior of the muscle car with a racing inspired, aluminum blade spoiler with support braces and a more modern racing splitter with support braces for improved downforce. The newly appointed front induction hood will let air flow freely through the hardworking engine and the 6LE Designs white faced gauges will inform the driver of the progress made by that same engine. Other features of the Camaro Intimidator are the classic looking heritage grille, afterburner tail lamps, chrome plated Intimidator badges, and the chrome wheels with the word Intimidator engraved on a spoke.

All in all, these are great additions to the Camaro. We can only think of one other tuning project for this car that we would prefer and that is the Camaro by Baldwin Motion. Their top level package cranks out a blissful 800 HP. Of course, that package empties your bank account by $150,000, while the Camaro Intimidator only costs $79,993.

Hit the jump for the full specifications.

Just take a good look, you will see that this one is definitely a looker, I really like the whole idea of the black paint job on the car, and the way they did the rear end is also great.

Its air intake on its front hood is seemed like on Subaru vehicle. Anyway, I think it looks more impressive if it is on a sleek body paint. However, I noticed that it still looks very exclusive on that.

The styling of the car is quite impressive for a muscle car. I think only the Camaro have an impressive styling on its exterior compare to Dodge and Ford.

Wow! The speed performance of the car is quiet impressive for a muscle car. Well, its a good thing that they offer a exterior and engine upgrade for its aerodynamic package.

I agree with you on that one. Though those special edition cars are indeed very good, there is still something that is quite lacking in them. But this customs are definitely head turners.

Know what, I am really looking forward to these custom builds rather than the special edition releases that Chevrolet itself brings out. Those really are quite boring.

One good thing that a lot of people have not yet noticed about this one is that it really has a good looking interior. Those trims that they have used for this one really adds to the sporty feel.

This one actually looks more like a sports car than a muscle car to me. Which is actually good in my book. I especially like how the paint job made the car look sleeker.

I don’t know why some of you hate this one. Just take a good look, you will see that this one is definitely a looker, I really like the whole idea of the black paint job on the car, and the way they did the rear end is also good.
