CHEVROLET CAMARO – AN AMERICAN CLASSIC
For 34 years, the Chevrolet Camaro has stayed true to its heritage of 'Performance, American Style.' Since its introduction, it has maintained a position in Chevrolet's performance-oriented sporty car lineup with traditional rear-wheel drive and muscular pushrod V8 engine, second only to its big brother, the Chevrolet Corvette. The 2001 Camaro is far more refined than its ancestors, especially the Z28. With horsepower increased from 305 to 310 and up from 320 to 325 on Z28 SS models, plus increases in torque ratings, Z28 buyers will feel more raw power than before. CAMARO MODEL LINEÚPThere are four Camaro models: Camaro Coupe & Convertible, and Z28 Coupe & Convertible, plus the SS Performance and Appearance option. The strength of the Camaro Convertibles is that they were designed and engineered at the beginning as convertibles and are built right on the assembly line in Ste. Therese, Quebec, Canada. Camaro Coupe models offer removable roof panels — another open-air option that is an exclusive in this segment (excluding other GM vehicles).In addition, there are three option packages that transform the Camaro into something sportier yet, or make it more useful for other 'pursuits.' • The Sport Appearance Package (Y3F) includes 16-inch aluminum wheels with P235/55R-16 blackwall Touring tires, specific front and rear fasciae, and a rear spoiler extension. The package may be ordered on any Camaro model, but on Z28s it does not include the wheels and tires because they are standard on the Z. This package is not available with the SS. • The SS Performance/Appearance Package (WÚ8) adds even more 'beef' to an already muscular car. Available on Z28 Coupe or Convertible models, it includes added horsepower (325 vs. the Z28's 310), a forced-air composite hood, special SS badging, a unique rear spoiler, low-restriction/ dual-outlet exhaust with larger pipes, power steering cooler, High Performance Ride and Handling package and special SS 17-inch aluminum wheels with speed-rated Goodyear Eagle F1 P275/40ZR-17 tires. The SS package can be ordered with either the 6-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. (posted on conceptcarz.com)• The B4C Special Service Police Package, which includes several Z28 ingredients on a Camaro Coupe platform, is available only to law enforcement agencies, and its enhanced performance makes the 'long arm of the law' even longer.CAMARO COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE
Camaros come with a long list of standard equipment items.
In addition to the already-mentioned LS1 horsepower increase, every Camaro model includes retuned shocks to aid ride and handling and optimize the isolation of road noise and vibration. Also new for 2001, Sunset Orange Metallic is added to Camaro's already exciting array of available colors.Source - Chevrolet
Brand Identity
Camaro is the purest, most uncompromising expression of the breed, making it 'America's honest sports car.' Camaro remains true to it's 34 year heritage character, whether in coupe or convertible form. Equipped with either the standard 3800 V6 engine or the growling Corvette-inspired 5.7 Liter LS1 V8, Camaro is eager to perform. And with four unique models, three transmission options and other option packages such as the SS, Camaro is the next best thing to a Corvette, offering the customer an affordable choice to the higher-priced domestic or import models.New for 2001
