Post by CallawayC8 »

I just got this stocker with 426 horse power. It is clearly not enough. Any ideas????? Just kidding. Its heading to Callaway shortly.. Can't wait, but my daughter prefers the ZR1. Smart girl.

My daugter LOVES cars, so I am in trouble. She calls the Camaro the Hot Car. She rode home with me in it, but she really loved the Red ZR1 in the showroom.

I think I will leave the body alone on this car, just because I think they got it so right. I love the idea of the special bodies, especially on my C8s, but I can't bear the idea of changing the look at all. Maybe I'll be convinced after I see something, but I think Paul's design flair is too fluid for the Camaro5 design. We'll see...

An aerobody for a 5th gen? I have trouble imagining that. Can't wait to see what it looks like. I hope it manages to be a complete transformation, and not like most of the aftermarket packages.

Hennessey has done the Camaro, and given it a custom bumper and rockers, and I can honestly say I can't tell the difference! I don't see ANY changes! I'd have to get it side by side to see any changes whatsoever. The guy even calls it this:
Hennessey Cam-Aero™ Urethane Body Components: Rear Lip Spoiler, Front Splitter & Side Rocker Panels
Raise your hand if you see any differences that are worth an extra few thousand dollars for the Hennessey Camaro. I only see stickers and wheels! :wtf

This is the only thing "different" I've seen concept art for:

They have been great. We used to deal with John Jochem Chevrolet in Stuart (where the fabled 1990 Red Vert B2K that never went to Callaway was ordered), but Maroone has given us the best deals, so its worth driving an extra 40 minutes.

Chris, I do know the sales manager there, and I told him I was going to send the car to Callaway. He seemed perplexed, and interested. From looking at the 6 Z06's, and the ZR1 on their floor (another one coming), they are into performance, and don't seem to have any trouble moving it. I'll talk to him.


Where is that new CamAerobody??

By the way, the Hennessey stripes look like a blatant rip off of the original Yenko stripes.

All Silver??

Are these from a dealer for a special package? It seems too odd to have all customer cars in silver.

Chris, let me know what I have to do to get the car up there and in line.

Will they be repainted another color? :conf

Surely these won't end up like the previous Callaway Camaros where they were all silver or red except for the extremely uncommon black, white, green, or teal. :cry2

On the bright side, I am very interested in seeing what is done. :jsmile I'd rather see one in Jet Stream Blue though than boring 'ole dime a dozen silver. :booty

Brandon, they are all silver. they will not be repainted.

There are other colored Camaros at the shop, too. :zs

Chris, I just got to thinking... is the reason all of those Camaros are silver for a reason? Back in '97 Rick Hendrick had some silver and black striped Camaro SSes built and sold them as Hendrick Racing Editions.

He's not having Callaway do them this time is he? :wave2

I can't think of any other reason based on history as to why you guys would have $280,000 in silver ones parked there for conversions. Am I right?!
