Camaro Faqs

From the time the Camaro and Firebird were introduced in September 1966, they developed a cult following. While GM's F-body had its ups and downs, it became a mainstay at Chevrolet and Pontiac showrooms. Over the years it was everything from a limited-production big-block muscle car to an underpowered 4-cylinder economy car, much like the vehicle GM's F-bodies were a response to, the Ford Mustang. With that kind of history, it almost seems unthinkable GM would discontinue it, yet they did.

The V6 Engine

CHpg is not only about what's coming, it's about what's been: the F-car's rich history. We'll have content for fans of older Camaros. CHpg is sponsored by Tom Henry Racing (THR), builder of the famed "Tom Henry SS", 4th Gen Camaros of 2001 and 2002, so we have a road test of one of the last Tom Henry SSes. We're also having fun out in the garage. We've been mod'ing an '01 V6 called the "Tom Henry RS". We believe the "make-or-break" product in the new Camaro line will be the base model with the V6 engine, so part of why we're doing the "THRS" is as a what-if interpretation of how the 2010 base Camaro might perform. That will keep us occupied until we actually get to drive a 5th Gen '10 with a V6.
