Release Date

2013 Camaro Convertible. A veteran of the American automobile production. Evil and expressive. Under the hood is a V8 engine of the old school. An engine that boosted in a similar configuration for decades, including the Corvette. Our test car, a convertible with a six-speed automatic transmission has to be in contrast to the handset, however, be content with "only" 298 kW (405 hp). Manually change the gears, the Camaro makes 318 kW (432 hp) and thus only 5 hp less than the lightweight Corvette C6.

2013 Camaro Convertible

Just have to look a Camaro. Reminiscent of the icons of the past and other forward-looking with all the essentials. Simple and yet so diverse. Clearly structured with all the rough edges that make the Camaro is unique even in his mid-American applicants named Mustang and Challenger.

But what about the sound. After starting the V8 briefly babbles on about after falling into a whisper, which also fits with a V6. And that remains even after a kickdown Sun The Corvette is as different from it and celebrates the symphonies of sound of a V8, just as we expect from a car of this category. Ergo has a different muffler in, one with more volume and the corresponding V8 babbling. Otherwise, it feels a bit like that is almost neutered. And that should not risk it with a muscle car.
