Whether you want to be the envy of the neighborhood, want to relive the glory days of the muscle car, or simply want to enjoy the throaty hum of the engine as you power down a highway, the 2011 Chevrolet Camaro is the car you want. Reintroduced in 2010 with a more traditional silhouette, the Camaro was a big success. The 2011 Chevy Camaro builds on that success by adding a 3.6 liter V-6 engine yielding 312 horsepower and other features like a standard six-month OnStar subscription. The Camaro also comes in a new convertible version for those that like to feel the wind whipping through their hair.

Handling of the 2011 Chevy Camaro

Slow is one word you'll never hear associated with the Camaro. Tire-shredding? Yes, especially if you choose the V-8 engine. The refined suspension, grip and great steering enables the Camaro to power through corners. The brakes are also well-equipped to handle the stopping no matter how fast you go. The ride is comfortable, wind noise minimal and road noise almost non-existent. So riding around in a Camaro is a comfortable way to go. But rest assured, when you want the power, it's all there. Whether you choose the six-speed automatic or the manual (also six-speed), the V-6 engine performs briskly and yields good gas mileage at 29 miles-per-gallon. Of course real enthusiasts will probably opt for the ultimate 6.2-liter V-8 engine that yields 426 hp with the six-speed manual or 400 hp with the automatic. Opt for the SS and you'll be able to do 0-60 in the 4.5-second range. The Camaro also boasts a 52/48 weight distribution, which is ideal.

2011 Chevrolet Camaro Walk Around

The Camaro boasts distinctive styling - no one will ever mistake it for a typical family sedan. The long hood and short rear deck are undeniably retro. The honeycomb grille in the front, aggressively styled fenders, air intakes and rounded tail lamps are reminiscent of the Corvette. All this translates to a car that looks as if it were built for nothing but speed. The standard dual exhaust is a nice touch, as are the standard power mirrors. Chose the RS appearance package and you'll get high-intensity-discharge headlamps with halo rings, unique tail lamps, 20-inch wheels and a rear spoiler. Other options include power heated mirrors, fog lamps, and auto-dimming driver-side mirror. You can also opt for the Synergy Green exterior color - a new offering this year.

Inside the 2011 Camaro

You'd think with all the energy devoted to the outside, Chevy might have under highlighted the interior features. Instead, you'll find retro touches with modern flare inside. Want individuality? You got it because you won't find the Camaro's steering wheel, radio unit or climate controls on any other vehicle. You can also opt for an auxiliary instrument panel indicating oil temperature, oil pressure, transmission fluid temperature and battery charge located near the shifter. Comfortable but tight fitting, the 2011 Chevrolet Camaro offers more interior features including cloth or leather seats, air conditioning, power windows, locks and keyless entry, XM Satellite Radio, heated front seats (optional), and a USB connector (optional). Another new feature for 2011 is the Head-Up Display, which is standard on the 2LT and 2SS trim levels. The Head-Up Display depicts your speed, rpm and even your radio station - on the windshield. Display height and intensity are completely customizable.
