2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28
GM designers have afforded the 2014 model with newly styled front and rear ends, which are supposed to make the Camaro look more contemporary and bring it closer to Chevy’s original sports car, the Corvette Stingray.
Up front, the latest Camaro gains a sleeker and less macho look via a narrower upper grille opening adorned with a chrome trim piece and slimmer headlamps, along with a re-sculptured bumper and a new functional vent positioned on the hood instead of the mail-box-like slit on the SS models.
Moving to the rear, the first thing that catches your attention are the new one-piece LED headlamps that are completely different than those found on the European-spec Camaro, with inspiration likely coming from the 1967 and 1969 Camaros (instead of the 1968-style split units of the outgoing 2013 model).
Chevrolet also redesigned the trunk that is now fitted with a third-stop light and in some models, with a spoiler that looks like its flowing on top. Rounding out the changes at the back is the new diffuser in black that has grown in height reaching the center of the license plate.
The LS7-powered Z/28 is a street-legal sports car tuned for the track and it slots between the 426hp 1LE and the 580hp ZL1, which have yet to be revealed in facelift trim.
The Z/28 benefits from a number of weight saving measures including manual adjustments for the front seats, modified rear seat section that is nine pounds (four kilograms) lighter, and 19-inch diameter wheels and tires, which reduce unsprung weight by 42 pounds (19 kilograms) per car compared to the 20-inch wheels standard on Camaro SS and ZL1.
Other notable features include the standard Recaro seats with microfiber suede inserts, a special aero package designed to produce downforce at track speeds, a limited-slip differential featuring a helical gear set, rather than traditional clutch packs, huge 305/30ZR19 Pirelli PZero Trofeo R tires and a braking system comprised of Brembo Carbon Ceramic Matrix rotors and fixed, monoblock calipers. Additional chassis changes include stiffer string rates and suspension bushings for improved cornering response.

Schwabenfolia 2014 Chevrolet Camaro SS
Schwabenfolia bolted on a TVS2300 Magnuson compressor to the Camaro SS’ 6.2-liter V8 engine boosting output to 518-horses (525PS).
To optimize handling, the tuner upgraded the chassis with a KW coilover suspension, while the SS rides on 20-inch wheels wrapped in tires size 245 up front and 275 at the rear.
On the outside, visual modifications include a special foil wrap in a matte shade called ‘Anodized Blue’, with the roof, center part of the hood, mirror caps and rear spoiler decorated in a 'Black Brushed Steel’ wrap, and the sides with a white pin stripe. The finish touch comes via a pair of LSD doors.

The All-New 2016 Chevrolet Camaro / 455HP V8, 2.0L Turbo
The last Camaro was built on a stubby version of the Zeta platform, developed by Holden and meant to underpin full-size sedans like the Commodore, Pontiac G8 and the Chevy SS. The 2016 Camaro is derived from the Alpha rear-drive platform that debuted with the Cadillac ATS, something that’s been compared favorably to a BMW 3-series in the handling department ever since launch.
