Chevrolet

With a lineup that includes some of the bestselling cars, trucks and SUVs sold in America, Chevrolet is routinely one of the bestselling brands in the US market.

The 2017 Grand Sport will be the most track capable Corvette Stingray for the new model year and with a price starting at $66,445, this new road-handling package is only $10k more than the base model Stingray – while being only a couple grand more than a Corvette 1LT built to go fast.

A new Chevrolet Camaro SS 50th Anniversary edition will serve as the official pace car for the 2016 Indianapolis 500 with legendary team owner Roger Penske at the wheel – marking the 5th time in the past 7 years where a Camaro has been the Indy 500 pace car.

After the #4 Chevrolet Corvette C7.R appeared to be the car to beat in the GT LeMans class this past weekend in the Grand Prix at Long Beach, a dirty move by one of the Porsche North America team cars forced Corvette Racing to settle for 2nd with the car piloted by Tommy Milner and Oliver Gavin.

I recently spent a week driving the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro 1LT RS Convertible and while I liked a great many aspects of my first CamaroSix experience, I was most impressed by how well General Motors embraces the 3.6L V6 – making their “base mode” muscle car better than the previous version and maybe better than any V6 muscle car before it.

The pricing has been announced for the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro in the United Kingdom, and even though the new GM muscle car isn’t right hand drive and the new Ford Mustang is – the Camaro still costs more than the Mustang in both 4- and 8-cylinder form.

The folks at Hennessey Performance took their Venom GT Spyder to the Naval Air Station in Lemoore, California for a run at the convertible top speed record and they achieved that goal – shattering the Bugatti Veyron’s convertible top speed record in hitting 265.6 miles per hour with an engine borrowed from the Corvette Z06 and the Camaro Z28.

This past weekend in Palm Beach, the first examples of the 2017 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport and the 2017 Chevrolet Camaro 50th Anniversary Edition hit the Barrett Jackson auction block, and while they didn’t bring the crazy amounts that past “first units” have brought – they both still raised an impressive amount of money for their respective charities.
