6,000 Camaros ordered so far, 84% with V8
by Mike Irwin ~ October 28th, 2008 @ 11:14 amAutoblog is reporting that “Chevrolet has reportedly taken more than 6,000 orders for its new Camaro so far…” and that “84% of orders have been for V8-powered SS models so far, which may mean a longer wait for delivery since GM is likely building a very different ratio of V8 to V6 models.”
You’re asking why you would care, this being primarily a stock car racing site? Well, it’s mostly because this site’s owner used to have a 1972 Chevrolet Camaro, and thinks the 1969 Camaro Z-28 with the 302 c.i. small block and 4 speed is about the best looking muscle car ever made.
The new 2010 Chevrolet Camaro is an updated rendering of what that ‘69 Camaro would look like had that design been carried forward until now.
So I like it, and I’m reporting about it.
