Camaro is already reveling in the success of the new line of Camaro muscle cars introduced several years ago. It captured the muscle car market with the great looks and performance that motorheads around the country have come to expect.

In many ways, the current line of Camaros have lived up to all of the expectations associated with the name "Camaro", while in the background, the real enthusiasts have been crying out (loudly) for the return of the Z28.

The new Camaro Z28 is designed for the racetrack and is build for speed, handling and great looks. It has been reported that it will be faster and almost 1000 pounds lighter than a standard Camaro. The power-house V8 engine is the same used by the Corvette. More on the specs later.

The 2014 Camaro Z28 was unveiled and on display at the New York International Auto Show held on March 27, 2013 in New York. And the world of muscle car enthusiasts is a buzz! We'll report on all the details of this iconic car. Until then, you can bet that a whole new generation of teenage boys will be dreaming about this car and the legend of the Z28.
