First, lets examine the exterior. The shape of the car is top-notch. The lines are symmetrical and flow evenly throughout the car. What makes this car so aggressive is its front grill. Also the lower valance underneath the grill compliments the lower stance of the vehicle. There are a verity of different paint schemes and colors that all are a hit. Every paint scheme that the designer created was an instant hit with enthusiasts. The basic schemes include racing or rally stripes down the middle of the car or a single stripe around the front hood and grille. My over all grade on the exterior is an A.
Next, to the interior. The interior of the 1967 Camaro is very basic. The dash has an interesting instrument cluster, its old school, with a huge tachometer and speedometer. The seats are low-rise seats; they only go about as high as your shoulders with no headrest. The steering wheel is very large and bulky. And finally the door panels are like most of the interior, plain. So I give the interior a grade of a B. I was just no that impressed with it.
Lastly, the under the hood examination. There are a wide variety of options for the Camaro engine. They range from a weak V6 with 210 horsepower to a beefy 396 cubic inch V8 with over 325 horsepower. The transmissions are also a wide range of manual and automatic. The look underneath the hood is excellent it looks clean and classy. The overall grade I give the under the hood specs is also an A. So this bring the final grade of the 1967 Camaro to an –A.
Now the highly anticipated 2010 Chevrolet Camaro. It made it’s first appearance in the movie Transformers and has not look back since. The first thing that comes to my mind when I see this car is that it is sick. The design is amazing. If you’re an enthusiast you know that this Camaro blends in all of its older counter parts, to make a work of art. The exterior like I said is brilliant. The stance is mean; the grille is classy but revolutionary. The paint schemes are similar to the ‘67; rally stripes, racing stripes or none at all. The taillights are from the ‘70’s model Camaro’s that gives it a unique look with out forgetting it’s past. The exterior of the 2010 Camaro has redefined car design, while setting the bar high. The 2010 Camaro exterior receives an A in my book, and try to argue with that.
The interior of the 2010 Camaro is very classy as well as the exterior. It has little touches of every generation of Camaros in the past. Now this interior far surpasses its’ counterpart from the ‘60’s. It is amazing. The gauge cluster is brilliant as well as the entire dash, incorporating the old school design while keeping it modern. The seats are leather and have more support than the ‘ 67. The entire interior flows very well through out the car and the grade if an A+, it is what it deserves.
The engine of the 2010 Camaro also rages from a powerful 3.6 liter V6 to a powerful 6.2 V8 SS. The V6 is rated at 300 hp and the V8 has 426 hp with a fuel economy at 25 mpg on the highway. As many sports cars consumers can get manual or automatic transmissions, but who would want an automatic? This again has lived up to its reputation as a Camaro being a fast powerful, good-looking sports car. Surprise, the grade is an A!
The final verdict of this remake is that it passes with flying colors. The 2010 Camaro has retouched on a past that many newer generations have not experienced. It also has brought back memories that people might have had with such legendary cars. This car was a top-notch remake. Keep up the good work.

“The ride, power, fit and finish are perfect. Chevy has a great car again. I bought the LS, 3.6, 6 speed manual to try to replicate the '67 version as much as possible and for 23,000 I feel like I stole it.”
