It's no secret that Memphis has always had a huge street scene as far as racing, and up and down Summer Avenue you can still find ultra-cool rod shops, as well as tons of drivers who appreciate the art. You can hit up spots like the Memphis International Raceway to catch the slightly more lawful version of the pastime, and see world-class events like Racing Made Safe, Journeyman Racing, and the Summit Bracket Racing Series. The Camaro has long been a staple on racetracks nationwide, and many fans and drivers alike have been amazed at just how awesome, powerful and downright sinister this vehicle is.

A combination of distinct design and raw power such as this is bound to win awards, and the Camaro has absolutely had a stellar year. J.D. Power and Associates billed it as the "Most Dependable Midsize Sporty Car, Five Years in a Row." This well-respected entity conducts surveys of customer satisfaction, product quality and buyer behavior within the auto industry. They rely heavily on the survey responses of customers who are specifically targeted, and it's no surprise that the Camaro pulled down this honor.

Car and Driver is a monthly publication geared towards auto enthusiasts worldwide: known for a slightly irreverent tone and habit of being blunt, they have habitually browbeaten SUV's, and are a forum that would make any auto brand proud to be favored in. The Camaro ranked on their "10Best" list this year, and a dazzling 3.5 second time for the 0-60 launch doesn't hurt any. When you come pay us a visit and check out just how exciting this car really is with a test drive, you'll be sitting at the helm of a racehorse that runs the quarter-mile in 11.4 seconds, dominating any setting that is thrown in its midst.

Kelley Blue Book has awarded the Camaro with the 2016 Best Resale Value Badge: one that is well-earned, and one of the most useful aspects of any vehicle. If the time does come when you do want to part ways with your purchase, it will not have depreciated as much as many other models down the chain. You're going to have to try pretty hard to find a reason to sell her, but we recognize that changes do occur in life, and when they do, you won't be left too incredibly short-changed.

You are going to love the aggressive front splitter on the Camaro, and the 3-stanchion spoiler, which is there to heavily increase downforce. The Carbon-fiber composite hood air extractor is on the scene to move air from the engine, and decrease the lift on the ride. A wing-style rear spoiler and diffuser help the ZL1 model keep up with the high level of performance expected from it, and the Camaro is one vehicle that won't disappoint. Magnetic Ride Control is an amazing form of suspension that actually reads road conditions 1,000 times per second.

As you begin to take a corner, the patented suspension fluid is engaged, which stiffens the suspension and reduces the amount of body roll you encounter. It's another ingenious additive that helps you get every bit of performance out of your ride, and keep you firmly planted while taking the tightest of turns. Come pay us a visit at Chuck Hutton and pay homage to the beloved muscle car that first debuted in 1966: The entire 6th-generation product line is gonna less-than-nonchalantly knock your socks off!

The legendary Camaro was built to challenge the most powerful sports coupes in the world. It accomplishes the 0-60 sprint in just 3.5 seconds, and the quarter-mile in just 11.4. Boasting a 650-HP supercharged 6.2-L V-8, it is able to venomously crank out 650 lbs-feet of max torque. The 6-speed manual features a short-throw shifter that feels snug while still being very responsive, while the Active Rev Matching simulates heel/toe shifting, perfectly engaging the throttle to match the wheel speed for the smoothest gear changes possible.

An icon as cool as the Camaro is so stealth that many don't even look over what yearly awards it is able to grab up! Everyone here at Jim Butler pays close attention to its achievements, as it is a vehicle that has been hailed time and time again. Raw power and refined design are the names of the game as far as the Camaro is concerned, and J.D. Powers awarded it the "Most dependable midsize sporty car, five years in a row."

There must be at least three models with 80% of market sales in any given award segment for an award to be presented to a specific model. Chevy has had a strong bounce-back from the auto crisis in general, and our beloved brand has really rivaled moxie against their numerous competitors in the J.D. Powers arena to become the top-awarded brand last year.

Car and Driver celebrated its 50th Anniversary 12 years ago, and is a powerhouse publication located in Ann Arbor , MI. Well-known for doling out the goods on anything auto-related for decades, they took close care to spread the Camaro love last year themselves. Rather than electing a Car of the Year, they get down to business quickly and pick their top ten annually in their own 10Best. The Camaro stole the honors to this award over the course of 2017, and its supercharged performance allows it to dominate heavily in its own class.

Standard engine oil, complex transmission foundations, and coolers within the rear differential serve the purpose of commanding this feisty vessel, while a 36mm high-performance radiator provides the cooling additive to quell the engine after each performance. Kelley's Blue Book also awarded the Camaro "2016 Best Resale Value," solidifying the fact that you can achieve gain in the greenback sector if you ever feel the need to part ways with your beloved possession.

The current Camaro models are known to offer more of everything that will make the driver feel connected to the asphalt, and engaged at every inch of the drive. The available industry-exclusive Performance Data Recorder is a very cool way to log video of your drives, and stores real-time performance data onto an SD memory card. If you are brave enough to let a family member of friend drive your prized possession, this is also a great way to assure that the hands you are leaving your car in are responsible and able.

When you come down to visit us at Jim Butler and check out the Camaro selection on the lot, ask us about Custom Launch Control: it uses Performance Traction Control to keep the rear tires spinning at a healthy rate. Them, it allows you to adjust your launch RPM as well as wheel slippage through the very useful Driver Information Center. It's well-known that Camaros are a cultivated favorite on the drag strip: check out just how powerful and robust the model line really is, before the kiss of summer fades into fall!
