What a wicked car!!

And that is only a very basic car, pulley, intake and tune. The Camaro has a huge following in the US with heaps of after market support. There are plenty of bolt on only modded cars getting into the 700-800rwhp area and with a little nitrous getting over 1000rwhp. The fastest stock engine (bolt ons only with nitrous) I believe is running 9's at over 150mph.

I hope they bring them here. I'd buy one for sure.

Thats unreal.
surely they would have a market here?
fast, look the part. good technology etc.
Fair enough their economy is what, 15 times larger than ours, but still people would buy it that price bracket.

But, alas.
I guess my comments above contradict why Holden has scrapped a big v8 rear wheel driven car here in Aus.
However, better economies of scale over there I agree, but import this thing and they will still make money.

They’d better be making money on a Camaro if they sell it for ~$90k!

There are some Youtube vids. Almost sounds like there is a shift cut happening like on a sequential manual box.


1. Where are they gettin' VY SS rims for the Caprice

I got run in in another video, it did a huge burnout and set the rear brakes on fire :)

Yeah the ZL1 (GTS) iron pumpkin of a diff does have a specific procedure for example, but clearly not a concern!

Lets see both cars after 5 years of abuse. The Kia will be ready for the tip, as with all the cars they make. 7 year warranty, my arse. They try every trick under the sun, not to repair faults under warranty. Hyundai are just as bad.

What’re you comparing after 5 years?
If the Camaro; nah, that’s a cheaper car than the KIA!
Commodore, V8 one at least, I agree, ignoring rattles & squeaks. Problem is that in 5 years time, all Commodores will be 5+ years old ... in 10 years, they’ll all be 10+ years old. :(
