For you gear heads.... 455hp and 455ft/lbs are some impressive numbers for being naturally aspirated.Link

The perfect birthday present for a 16 year old? :B

Birth of the Camaro 1967! Wish I still had my 67 SS 350, with rally headlights & hood and debadged. 295HP 10.25 compress ratio, Muncie wide ratio, 3.23 gears and Bose 8T Stereo. VV Mono Leaf rear springs VV, 68 brought a better rear suspension. Bought it in 68 while in the Coast Guard and sold it in the early 70's. Drats!Got

The 2016 Camaro looks great. Better than the 2015 Mustang, in my opinion.

The interior of the Camaro is far nicer but the body of the Mustang is better looking to me and it's lighter too.

That axle used to jackhammer on hard starts. I also didn't care for the GM shifter, although a Hurst shifter would improve things. Did I mention the 9.5 inch drum brakes ?Other than those things, I really liked my '67 Camaro RS. There's only a few vehicles I've had, that I still wish I had. That Camaro was one, another was my '62 Volvo PV544s (Sport), with the B18s engine.I actually wouldn't mind having a 2016 Camaro...the 3.6 liter V6 engine would do just fine for me.

Put those numbers in a new pickup truck and I might be interested. Had no interest in a Chevy Camaro back in the 60s and they still don't impress me now. :R

Well silly me, I traded this in on the Camaro. Hot 283 Crane Cam, 1.94 heads, headers and AFB, T10 and 4:11's. Again debadged and body straight as an arrow. Had 3:36's when I bought it from my brother in the summer of 1967 when I returned from SE Asia. I changed the gears while on leave the first summer home. 4:11's worked a lot better with the close ratio T10. All I can say now is "Plays with Trucks"! I think I have a hat that my granddaughter gave me that says just that!
