CHEVROLET

2005 Chevrolet Corvette Twin Turbo C6

 

Dallas Performance may not be a tuning firm that is all too familiar on the wonderful world of the web, but boy are they coming out with a bang! For their launch into the tuning world, the Texas tuner is introducing their most impressive creation: a Chevrolet Corvette owned by Robert Varela (DFGDTT), a proud Member of the 200+ MPH Club at the Texas Mile.

 

2011 DeNooyer HT-SS454 Camaro

 

Forget about the Chevrolet Camaro SS because GM Performance Parts has come out with the most amazing Camaro we have ever seen. Called the HT-SS454 Camaro (named for partner Redline Motorsports’ owner Howard Tanner), this special muscle car was developed in cooperation with Chevrolet’s dealer in New York DeNooyer.

 

2010 Lingenfelter LTA

 

Now that Pontiac has officially bitten the dust, it certainly seems like an appropriate time for aftermarket tuners to pay homage to the brand, a tribute of sorts for the automaker that stamped its name in automotive history for the past 84 years before being recently axed.

 

2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Z71

 

Next to a bunch of customized Corvettes and Camaros, Chevrolet will also be bringing a modified Silverado 2500 to the SEMA Show. The 2500HD Extended Cab Z71 is equipped with the new 6.6L Duramax turbo-diesel engine with B20 biodiesel capability and mated to an Allison 1000 six-speed automatic transmission.

 

2010 Chevrolet Camaro Synergy Series

 

Chevrolet, along with various other manufacturers, are now wholly catering for the most die hard fans of the brand – the aftermarket enthusiasts. The Synergy Series of limited edition Camaros will feature a new, differently themed customized model each year. The first Camaro Synergy model was the 2010 Synergy Green special-edition car. As you would expect, the Camaro Synergy Series 2011 model contains a mix of exterior and interior accessories that sets it apart from the normal Camaro. These include an exclusive gray interior with red accent stitching throughout, which is based on the Camaro Chroma, a show car first exhibited at SEMA in 2009.

 

2011 Chevrolet Camaro XM

 

Chevrolet has just announced the new Camaro with a long name. Whereas most versions of this muscle are two letters, this one is called the XM/Accessory Appearance Package. You might want to right that one down in case you need to remember later.

 

2010 Chevrolet Camaro T-Top

 

Drop Top Customs has taken us back to the glory days with their new T-Top Kit for the 2010 Chevy Camaro. The customized Camaro is set to debut at 2010 SEMA next month, and sales for the T-Top kit will start about a month after. For $6,500 you can have the car of your 80’s dreams. Of course, with a kit like this, who will want the Camaro Convertible when Chevrolet actually unveils it?

 

2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS

 

After the teaser image revealed back in September that barely showed anything but the exterior color of the car, aLL STaR Performance has unveiled the first image of their customized Camaro SS that will be displayed at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

 

2010 Chevrolet Camaro by RBM

 

The SEMA Show is fast approaching and some last minute additions are coming out of the woodwork to make their presence known when the Las Vegas Convention doors open on Tuesday, November 2nd. We have already lost count of all of the customized cars that will be on hand, but Raging Bull Marketing (RBM) is putting their stamp on the show with their own version of the Chevrolet Camaro muscle car. And we have the first image and details on this new Camaro.

 

2010 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

 

You might know Romeo Ferrari for their tuning packages for the Alfa Romeo Mito and the Mercedes C63 AMG, but today the tuner revealed a kit for the American sports car, the Corvette Z06.

 

2011 Chevrolet Camaro HPE700

 

In a weird twist to debuting tuned up vehicles, Hennessey has unveiled the 2011 HPE700, a special edition Camaro limited to only 24 units, including a special convertible version. Under the hood there is an upgraded LS9 engine that delivers 755 HP and 763 lb-ft of torque. This would seem to be pretty impressive except that Hennessey has already introduced us to the HPE8002010 HPE700 package producing 815hp on regular 93 octane or 1000 hp on 104 octane (race fuel). Confused? Yeah, so are we. At least they were able to boost the number of ponies from their which topped out at 725hp. Nonetheless, the price for this limited HPE700 package is $132,500, including the base vehicle.


2011 Chevrolet Orlando

 

Chevrolet unveiled the Orlando concept at the 2008 Paris Auto Show two years ago. This concept was their first seven-seat multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), and now, at the same show, the company will unveil the production version Orlando. Sales in Europe will begin in early 2011.

 

2010 Chevrolet Corvette

 

The legendary performance engineers at Lingenfelter have revealed a new supercharger for the Chevrolet Corvette’s LS3 engine. The new 670 HP package features the Edelbrock E-Force supercharger system in combination with LPE CNC ported LS3 cylinder heads and the recently developed GT9 ZR1 supercharger camshaft. The Corvette will also keep its aggressive idle sound which should make it pretty intimidating even at a standstill. Lingenfelter also added competition Cams dual valve springs, titanium retainers, and properly sized fuel injectors.

 

2011 Chevrolet Captiva SUV

 

Chevrolet will unveil a facelift version for their Captiva SUV at the Paris Auto Show at the end of this month. The new model will get a new front end design, a range of enhancements to the interior, and new engines and transmissions. Sales will begin in the spring of 2011.

 

2010 Chevrolet Corvette Redline 

 

Howard Tanner from Redline Motorsports and Dan Carlton from DeNooyer Performance are officially a pair of geniuses. They have taken a 2010 Corvette Grand Sport loaded with a 3LT package in cyber gray metallic with a red interior and transformed it into a luscious Redline HTR-GS640/SC. Yeah, we know that’s a lot of letters, but broken down, the car’s name is simply the "Howard Tanner Redline – Grand Sport 640hp Super Charged".

 

2010 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1

 

The Corvette ZR1 is for sure a car that needs no improving, but with just a few adjustments, even the best sports car can get even better. And if you expected to see a complete tuning package, well you are wrong. D2Forged, a tuning firm that specializes in aftermarket wheels, is only offering a new set of wheels, but it seems this was all the car needed to look stunning.

 

2011 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

 

While waiting for the next generation Corvette, Chevrolet is entering the 2011 model year with a list of upgrades. The new model will go on sale in three trim versions: 1LZ, 2LZ, and 3LZ with prices starting at $74,305.

 

2010 Rossi SixtySix based off the Corvette C6

The SixtySix will be built in limited numbers and will be unveiled at the 22nd Annual EyesOn Design this Sunday at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills.

 

2011 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

 

Chevrolet announced a special 2011 Corvette Z06 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Corvette’s first participation at Le Mans. This one-of-a-kind Corvette (VIN 0001) features the same blue and white color scheme as the 1960 Corvette which won its class at Le Mans 50 years ago and will be sold later this year to benefit the National Corvette Museum. This, however, will not be your traditional raffle or no reserve auction. The NCM is asking for a $300,000 donation to the museum and then a pay out of about $85,000 which is about what the museum paid for the car.

 

2010 Chevrolet Volt MPV5

 

While waiting for the production version of the Volt, Chevrolet decided to tease us with a new electric concept carrying the same nameplate. This time, it’s a crossover. It made its world debut at the Auto China 2010 and comes to demonstrate the potential of the Voltec propulsion system.

 

2010 Chevrolet Cruze BTCC

 

Chevrolet is entering the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) with two Silverline Chevrolet Cruze. The cars will be prepared by the Wellingborough-based RML team, which also looks after Chevrolet’s WTCC Cruze.
