Vehicle Description
2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS Coupe
Hot Wheels was first introduced in 1968 to the toy industry during
NEW YORK TOY FAIR. Hot Wheels' birthday is celebrated on MAY 18 and
the first Hot Wheels car off the line was a dark blue CUSTOM
CAMARO. Over 6 BILLION Hot Wheels have been produced since 1968.
16.5 Hot Wheels are produced EVERY SECOND, and in the US the
average kid owns 50 hot wheels. Who says America is not in love
with cars?
For consignment a real 2010 Camaro, 42 years after the first Hot
wheel's car came off the line in the form of a dark blue Custom
Camaro. This is the real deal, with a performance suspension,
Brembo brakes, satin stripes, a short throw Hurst shifter, and an
Edelbrock supercharger among many upgrades. A car that eats
Mustangs, right here at Classic Auto Mall ready for the taking!
Exterior
With a mere 3,278 title verified original miles, this beauty is
bathed in retina searing Rally Yellow and shines like a crazy
diamond. Adding more bling are the side-by-side satin black stripes
that race each other up the cowl induction style scooped hood and
continue the contest on the trundled ending in a tie on the rear
spoiler. This car looks great from the front with its bad ass
pointy front grille design to the deep inset single headlights,
integrated bumper, and fog lights, and don't forget the gold bowtie
leading the way. Steel panels are all nice and straight and mind
their gaps very well. Looking at the profile the aero design
continues with the swept back windshield and oversized polished 5
spoke 20-inch ZL-1 wheels. A racer ready to take on the orange
track with its banked curves and looper.
Interior
A swing of the doors and I feel like I'm viewing the 2010 version
of the Millennium Falcon with even the door panels giving me the
aero design feel, all integrated and smooth lines here. Turning our
attention to the passenger compartment, we can slip in dual sporty
designed buckets covered in ebony cloth with white stitching and a
white SS embroidering on the headrests. No fooling around here as
the seats just grab me as I buckle up and tune in the stereo and
get ready to roll. The futuristic Buck Rogers in the 21st century
continues with the dash, in particular the instrument cluster which
plays on the deep set dual gauge cluster of early days of the
Camaro, but takes it a step up by wrapping them with rectangular
bezels and a center digital odometer and info display. Seen are
auxiliary gauges at the front of the console, and an
AM/FM/CD/Bluetooth audio system. In the center a nicely designed
console drops down from the dash and houses the aforementioned
4-gauge cluster in the front, short throw Hurst shifter and
glovebox. As it makes its way past the buckets, it ends abruptly at
the 2 plus 2 leather covered rear seats. Clean ebony carpet floods
the floors and is protected by Camaro embroidered carpeted
mats.
Drivetrain
Just like driving through the little house in the middle of the
orange track with its spinning wheels, we are thrown into
hyperdrive with the hefty 6.2 Liter SFI V8 which puts out a
whopping 426hp in stock trim. But this mill is far from stock with
the addition of an Edelbrock E-Force supercharger and is fed by
electronic fuel injection. This mighty power-added V8 sends power
back to a 6-speed manual Tremec TR6060 transmission, which in turn
puts the power back to a 3.45 axle.
Undercarriage
Underneath it does not say "Made by Mattel" but it does say all
clean and green, well not green, just neutral finished flooring
with slight factory Rally Yellow overspray. There are no rust
issues to note, even as far as surface rust. Meanwhile, factory
dual exhaust leads its way to the rear of the car after passing
through a pair of GMPP, (General Motors Performance Parts),
mufflers. Independent coil spring suspension is up front and in the
rear we see an independent 4.5 link set up. Also, noted are Brembo
disc brakes all around.
Drive-Ability
Like 2 kids taking our new car out of its blister pack, my partner
in crime and I took this car out for a spin and we were not
disappointed. Like new condition, it started right up, and we were
off. More than adequate power, the short throw shifter is nice, and
we went through the gears effortlessly. Good handling with the
performance suspension and brakes and all is in good working
condition.
Just like a favorite toy this consigner took very good care after
playing with it, to put it back in its garage, all buttoned up
until the next time to play. Beautiful can't miss it Rally Yellow
on the outside, and nice clean cloth on the inside, all with
futuristic design, low miles, and plenty of conveniences. Take me
to hyperdrive!
