New Chevrolet Camaro will cost from £35,320 in UK

The facelifted Chevrolet Camaro will arrive in the UK in November 2013 The current Chevrolet Camaro only hit the UK around a year ago, but with a facelift for the Camaro debuting at the New York Auto Show this year the new Camaro is on its way to the UK, with prices starting from £35,320. The changes to the 2014 Camaro amount to a new nose with wider grill and slimmer lights, a set of vents on the bonnet with a new boot lid, diffuser and lights at the back that somehow contrive to make the Camaro look like a Japanese import. Under the bonnet is the same American Muscle engine – a 6.2 litre V8 – with 426bhp if you opt for the manual gearbox and 400bhp if you go for the auto option, with standard equipment including Keyless, MyLink (which gives you a 7″ touchscreen, rear view camera and voice recognition), SatNav and colour heads-up display.

Thirty-one years later, he gave the go-ahead for the development of a car that was to be the ultimate bleeding edge of what Porsche knew about building a rear-engined sports car.
