2013 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

2013 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 - Rock-n-roll on wheels
A muscle car is flexing the muscles because they threatened to drive the Ford Mustang than Shelby GT from having the Chevrolet engineers and the Camaro tuned once again and for the eternal battle of pony cars have been upgraded for ZL1: The compressor is the most Corvette is its 6.2-liter V8 engine now makes 580 hp and the outspoken force for Meier strongest Camaro of all time - and most emotional.

This car is like rock and roll on wheels: Its loud, wild and alive. The sharpened design with chubby cheeks and plenty of carbon to the muscular hood is a show, the sound is brutal and the start of breath-taking.

If the 305er slippers found on the rear axle on the asphalt enough support, that knows the Camaro is no stopping them: then break up to 754 Nm to the car in about four seconds to 100 and who has no fear of the Sheriff may, this wild game to 290 things drift - the faster the Camaro from the factory has never been. And even louder, because if you play long enough with the gas pedal, it elicits from the orchestra of the eight cylinders and four tailpipes and a tantalizing blend of rumbling roar, rumble and roar that makes any radio obsolete.

Who the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 on the public highway extends, the risk in America probably a life sentence, or at least a bus ticket to eternity. But just like the first Camaro ZL1 from the late sixties, this despite the Camaro street legal, especially for the race track and even more so made for the drag strip. The quarter mile is his home, and each long line behind a red light, his territory. Therefore, one can change the setup of the power button on Meiers. Suspension, steering, stability control system and engine can be divided into five levels vary so that it always lies down the perfect racing start. Except for the tires you have to worry about anything here, the engineers promise: The rear axle and the clutch are reinforced to withstand at least 1:000 missile launches.

But the Camaro is not only fast on the straights. Even on a winding country road makes the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 a very decent figure. Because he of the Corvette next to the compressor and the programmable magnetic ride suspension, takes over the steering system for a U.S. car is surprisingly sharp and precise and the discs are great, like family pizzas from "Dominos", the car struggles valiantly through tight turns and bites over steep mountain passes. Sure the car is a bit difficult to get, because every pound of aluminum or carbon would have driven the Chevrolet Camaro out of the price range for the mass sports, so that in the curves have been some work done. And quite as delicate, precise and sharp as comparable in performance high-tech sports cars from the blow of the Mercedes SLS or the Audi R8, it is not. Instead of precision and sensitivity, he simply uses his impressive impact and becomes a .45 Magnum with a loud small calibers.
