Vehicle Description
If you're a Camaro fan, you're already very familiar with the guys
at SLP. For years they helped GM build some of the nastiest
F-bodies on the road, and this 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SLP ZL575 is
more of the same. Incredibly fast, impeccably preserved, and very
reasonably priced for the performance you get, it's the
high-performance Camaro you've always wanted.
The SLP cars were always brash and in-your-face machines, and this
one, with its bright Metallic Orange paint job, black SS stripes,
and gaping hood scoop is aggressive without going too far. Finish
quality is extremely good, and for a production car from GM, it's
shockingly good compared to its less aggressive siblings. The
stripes are a throwback to the original SS models of the late 1960s
(as is the whole car, I suppose), and aside from the aforementioned
hood and deck lid spoiler, it's pretty much as GM intended. The
ZL575 badges suggest that this one is something very special,
recalling the legendary ZL1, which might be the most valuable
muscle car ever built. The paint is deep and glossy and the new
Camaro's fit and finish is impressive no matter where you look. If
it's attention you crave, this car will deliver in a very big
way.
The interior was given the same thorough makeover, most notably
with those two-tone leather bucket seats that echo the exterior
paint scheme. Special embroidery on the head rests is more proof
that this isn't your average hot rod Camaro, and you'll note that
even the stitching on the seats is contrasting orange thread. The
leather-wrapped steering wheel is big and beefy and all the
standard Camaro equipment is included, ranging from A/C to cruise
control to power everything. The gauges light up with cool red
rings around the dials and the beautiful door panels wrap into the
dash with a stripe of orange that ties everything together rather
neatly. Of course, no performance car worth its salt comes with
anything but a shift-it-yourself gearbox, and the 6-speed manual
transmission in the Camaro is one of the best. Everything remains
in outstanding condition with very little wear, indicative of a
caring owner who knew this was something special. There's a special
dash plaque on the passenger's side showing this is number 202 of
only 250 of these beauties produced, so you won't see yourself
coming at every car show.
The hardware in this car is beyond impressive. The foundation is
the Camaro's bulletproof LS2 V8, but the guys at SLP aren't about
stock. To it they added a very trick roots-style supercharger
driven by a special jack shaft running to the back of the engine.
The whole setup looks very OEM and gives the aluminum V8 a towering
torque curve that will incinerate the tires at almost any speed.
Even more remarkable is how docile it is, with an easy idle, good
road manners, and even decent fuel economy if you can keep your
foot out of the throttle. Options include an SLP adjustable sway
bar package and a Brembo GT front brake package, which includes
6-piston calipers and 15-inch 2-piece rotors, a setup that can
handle the car's 190 MPH top speed. Custom SLP 20-inch ZL575 wheels
look fantastic with a thin red pinstripe and are wrapped in
245/45/20 Pirelli P-Zero rubber with plenty of life left.
Rare, fast as heck, and incredibly preserved with only 1,916
original miles on the clock. This uber-rare, special-edition Camaro
is a fantastic modern collectable that's every bit as fast as it
looks. Call today!
