Yesterday, General Motors published a photograph of GM Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner, Vice-Chairmen Bob Lutz and Fritz Henderson positioned in front of a production clay model of the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro. Captioning by GM references this figure being a "production clay model", but everything appears to be exactly the same as the past production visages we've seen; namely the Chevrolet Camaro concept that debuted at the 2006 Auto Show in Detroit. |

Barrett-Jackson sees some of the rarest and most amazing
muscle cars to ever grace an auction block, but this one in particular will
probably bring in some great money this year as well as the future. Its options you ask? A 275 hp 327ci motor, automatic transmission and
a red leather interior. |

 With the release of the 2009 Camaro about a year away, things are gearing up and getting plenty hot in Detroit. Next week, Chevrolet will show off the convertible version of the Camaro at the North American International Auto Show. Along with the release, inside sources say this is good news for the United Kingdom, as Chevrolet has unofficial plans to send the Camaro over the pond. |

 It's been some time since we have heard anything more from GM and the official plans to get the upcoming Chevrolet Camaro out in front of the public. Perhaps there is a large surprise we don't know about? Maybe Chevrolet is waiting to make a booming announcement about the Camaro coming in a 4-door version? OK...maybe not. What is known is that the new Chevy Camaro is going to have to show itself to be everything promised and more. One potential way that could warm BowTie lovers' hearts would be to make the convertible concept a reality, as everyone has hinted at. |

 In a recent report from Automotive News, it's rumored that the executives at GM are contemplating exporting the reborn Chevrolet Camaro over to Europe. With the news of the car's production being formalized recently, could this be another attempt by GM to get an edge in the modern-day horsepower race? Europeans have yet to see the new Camaro in person, but are chomping at the bit, given the images and illustrations they have viewed in the popular media. We'll have to see what card Chevrolet will play next, as Ford's recent TV spot with the Shelby GT500 rolling about on the Autobahn has certainly drawn attention to the concept of transplanting American muscle across the pond. |

 As Chevrolet just starts to pour new life into the revived Camaro, they have decided to also offer a convertible version of their legendary street bruiser. RPM has learned that Chevrolet will follow up the launch of the 2009 Camaro coupe with a 2010 Camaro convertible. Both of these cars are scheduled to enter the exploding pony car market right as the two other domestic OEMs release their own pony cars. The convertible version will also ride on the same Zeta platform that will be modified for use as the Camaro. One of the nice things about this global platform is GM could spin off many other two-door RWD variants like the Firebird, GTO, and Grand Prix, so easily. The next generation Camaro will be fighting off a lot of Challengers and Mustangs in the very near future so stay tuned. |

 The iconic Chevrolet Camaro is bringing back pride with the "Heartbeat of America", but it likely won't be built in the United States. It's been reported by several sources (The Car Connection, Automotive News, NY Times) that when GM puts the Camaro into production in 2008, it won't come to America as a native-born citizen, rather as a Canadian from Ontario. The new Camaro is rumored to require at least $658 million in capital expenditures to gear up the plant for production upgrades. Eventually, the Ontario plant will be equipped as a flex facility, being able to produce other rear-wheel drive platform cars as well. Perhaps the Pontiac Firebird might join the party, as it was produced in Montreal with its sibling (Camaro) before they were both dropped back in 2002. It does not make much sense to spend several hundred million dollars only to resurrect and create one sports car model. |

 A few reputable sources are pointing towards GM making an official announcement this week regarding the production of the next Chevrolet Camaro. While not a shocking statement by any means, this (expected) official announcement will put the Camaro on schedule within the next couple of years, in hopes of competing with the Dodge Challenger and the soon-to-be-redesigned Ford Mustang. On Thursday of this week, General Motors Chairman Rick Wagoner is supposed to make the announcement for the next generation production to be official as opposed to the last several rounds of rumors and speculation. We'll keep you updated on this development, so check back on Thursday to see what the shakedown is with the all-new Chevrolet Camaro. |
