Official Accessories For New Camaro To Include Big Wing, Ground Effects
The 2010 Chevy Camaro fans over at Camaro5 have snapped some shots of the factory accessories from the unveil of the 2010 Chevy Camaro SS this weekend that’ll be available for the new muscle car from the American Revolution. In addition to the usual chrome wheels and cold air intakes, there will be a range of — how should we say this? — less tasteful bolt-ons including a high wing, colored engine parts, ground effect bodykits and color-matched lighted interior trim pieces. The full list, courtesy of Camaro5, follows the jump. Oh, and if the tarted-up red Camaro looks familiar, maybe it's because we've seen it once before. More »

New Chevy Camaro SS Revealed, Officially And Underwhelmingly, At 2008 IndyBash
While we're excited for the 2010 Chevy Camaro SS, the reveal yesterday was rather undramatic, taking place at an event held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway called the 2008 IndyBash. Yeah, and as expected, it was filled with all sorts of surprises — like — um, OK, so there weren't any surprises. What should we expect from the reveal of the "SS" version of what may quite possibly be the most over-exposed and vehicle in the history of the automobile? Not much, wethinks. So, on that level, the reveal met expectations. But, if you're interested in seeing the car up close — again — for the umpteenth time — check out the gallery below. Many thanks to the folks at the Camaro5 forum for snapping all of them for your viewing pleasure. More »

2010 Camaro SS, 2009 Corvette ZR1 Play Together On Track In An Orgy Of Horsepower
This is the first time we've seen both the 2010 Camaro SS and the 2009 Corvette ZR1 sharing track time, though the video leaves us a bit confused. Yes, the two look great together, and the V8 soundtrack isn't too bad either...except we only get to hear each of the cars sing solo. We were expecting to hear a roaring duet of muscle, but the audio has suspiciously been cut from those scenes. And, is it just us, or have some portions of the video been blatantly sped up?

2010 Camaro SS Pics Officially Released, Act Surprised
Sure, you've seen the Camaro SS in unofficial photos in front of a real background, but we bet you haven't seen official photos of a 2010 Camaro SS in front of a dark background. Or maybe you have. Either way, GM has officially posted another set of photos of the Camaro SS, which looks remarkably like the other 2010 Camaros we've seen. The Camaro SS will be getting the LS3 6.2-liter V8, along with the 422 horsepower and 408 lb-ft of torque that comes with it. More »

That's right folks —never mind the ad supplement, or the leaked pictures — now the first official press photo — or press rendering, we guess — of the new Chevrolet Camaro SS was just revealed on GM's Media site. We can't seem to find any other press release or official documentation accompanying it. But whatevs, we're just pleased as punch Chevy finally showed us what the new up-powered Camaro with the 6.2-liter V8 engine.

We're expecting official images of the ever-pending 2010 Chevy Camaro SS any day now, but the various photo shoots ahead of that day have yielded at least one gallery of good ones.

2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS Revealed In Conde Naste Ad Supplement With Black-Eyed Peas Singer
The first official image of the production-intent 2010 Chevy Camaro SS debuted in a Conde Nast magazine ad supplement called "Fashion Rocks" aside some singer we seem to remember used to be in the Black-Eyed Peas. This makes way more sense than dropping it into say, a buff book or, you know debuting it online like every other car these days. But, although the SS looks similar to the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro we saw revealed live in Detroit recently, there are some tell-tale differences. More »

2010 Chevy Camaro Sales Reference Guide Proves GM Hasn't Fired Marketing Department
Here we are, months and months away from the sales-floor launch of the 2010 Chevy Camaro, and already those persuasive salesfolks are prepping, poring over this conveniently leaked sales guide, readying their pitch to get you into GM's new hotness. We took a look at the nine-page talking points memo and found it unsurprisingly chock full of marketing-speak. Things like "world-class cupholders" and a "Reverse mohawk roof" prove to us that GM really put a lot of effort into the sales strategy here — just look how hard they're trying. More »

2010 Chevy Camaro: From Concept To Reality
The most striking feature of the unveil of the new Camaro was how strikingly similar the 2010 Chevy Camaro is to the Camaro Concept. We enlisted the help of GM designer Jeff Perkins, who worked extensively on the new muscle car, to help us with the magnifying glass and determine what those changes were. Hit the jump as Jeff guides us through sort of virtual walk-around, pointing out each of the individual tweaks and changes the designers made to bring the concept to production. More » -

Video: New Camaro Playing Sweet V8-Powered Music On Main Street
No, you didn't read that wrong. Our sources tell us those idling sounds you hear in the above video received anonymously from one of our tipsters (who we're still waiting for an e-mail back from!) aren't coming from a plain-Jane direct-inject 3.6-liter V6 engine. Nope, apparently the new Chevy Camaro painted hot rod red shown to journalists in Metro Detroit last night had either the big 6.2-liter LS3 V8 and its whopping 422 HP. That's enough power to take the Camaro SS around Germany's famed Nurburgring with a time of 8:20. How do we know it was the LS3 and not the new Active Fuel Managed L99 V8 with the same displacement? Well, this particular Camaro's got a manual transmission. So yes friends, this is the 2010 Chevy Camaro SS — dressed up as a 2010 Chevy Camaro RS. Yeah baby, it's a sleeper! Nice. Also, see if you can spot Jalopnik's fearless leader for some bonus points. More »

First Driving Video Of The New Chevy Camaro!
Well, first driving video of the production version of the 2010 Chevy Camaro, anyway. Sure, there's been two-and-a-half years of spy photos, videos and what have you, but here's B-Roll of the real deal. It goes like a nice Chianti with the leaked photos revealed on Friday, some fava beans and the live reveal you'll see here tomorrow afternoon at 4:00 PM. Sure, we wish there were some sounds of the new Chevy Camaro to go along with the video. Unfortunately, some silly site* we liberated this GM PR video from (its from an 800-lb consumer site with the inside line on how to get video from Chevy) decided to do a voice over instead of giving enthusiasts the chance to really here that Camaro purr. Bad consumer site, bad! Whatever. Anyway, hit the jump for our galleries on the new muscle car from the General. More » -

The New Chevy Camaro In A Skittles-Like Rainbow Of Colors, What's Your Favorite?
Although we've already seen the 2010 Chevy Camaro revealed in three colors, the crazy kids over at CarScoop have decided the new Chevy Camaro RS needs to be seen in more than just plain-Jane colors like red, yellow and silver. They've Photoshopped a veritable Skittles-like rainbow of colorgasmic flavors for the new Chevy Camaro. Check out the front ends over here, then head on over to CarScoop to check out the hot rear action. Although we''re partial to pink on the new mullet-mobile, what's your favorite flavor? Better question — anyone want to take a few moments in P-shop themselves to mock up what colors and decals you'd drop atop Chevy's new muscle car? We'll do a post showing off the best tomorrow afternoon before the official unveiling at 4:00 PM EST. More » -

Production 2010 Chevy Camaro Revealed!
UPDATE: We've driven it, and here's our full 2010 Chevy Camaro review! This is it. The 2010 Chevy Camaro, revealed in all its glory. According to details we've been told by the folks breaking the embargo, the new Chevy Camaro will come in LS, LT and SS (yes, we know there's a badge there that says "RS")— and be available in either 6-speed manual or auto flavors. Under the hood, a 296 HP 3.6-liter V6 or a 416 HP 6.2-liter V8 with cylinder deactivation. And check out that interior — looks very muscular to us. Weight? How about 3,747 lb — lighter than the Challenger. Full details below the jump. UPDATE: Now we've got even more pictures! More »
