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.

Priced at over a quarter of a Million dollars, if you are part of the crowd that can afford the new AMG SLS then you are part of an elite group of gull wing enthusiasts that will go from 0 to 60 MPH in 3.8 seconds and hit a top speed of 196 MPH thanks to a very special version of the AMG hand built 6.2 Liter V8. In order to further separate your new super car from the rest of the SLS owner’s registry an owner could leave the amazing German engineered internals alone and focus on the new retro Benz’s appearance. How would a modern day Gullwing with even more styling cues from the original sound. If that sounds like your cup of tea then you might be interested in knowing about the automotive re stylers Gullwing-America.
Their latest creation is called the SLS Panamerica, a seven piece body kit made from Hybrid Aluminum and carbon fiber that emphasizes the classic car’s signature side vents with a wider stance and include a few chrome details emphasizing accents like the grill frame. The new Gullwing rides on a set of staggered wheels measuring 19 inches up front and 20 inches out back. On the inside, Gullwing-America added Alcantara inserts into the sport buckets that resembles the original car’s plaid upholstery which is offset by modern touches like a set of illuminated brushed Aluminum door sills. What would be better than pulling up to a Silver Arrow car show in a truly retro 2010 Gullwing.
