Vehicle Description
Fans of country music's Rascal Flatts are no doubt familiar with
the song, "Red Camaro," which is featured in the band's album:
"Nothing Like This." This 2011 Camaro SS has been customized with
an old F-body favorite, factory-style T-tops. (The last factory
T-top cars made were for the Camaro and Pontiac Firebird in 2002.)
The exterior features custom red metallic paint, rear glass and
quarter glass louvers, custom rear spoiler, ground effects and
more.
The interior was completely disassembled and put back together with
black leather and suede, red stitching, hand-crafted Swarovski
crystal and Rascals Flatts emblems created by Crystal Ninja.
Rounding out the interior enhancements is a killer Diamond audio
system with a Kenwood touchscreen, 8 speakers and 2 12-inch woofers
in a full custom trunk.

On season 1 episode 10, West Coast Customs CEO Ryan Fredlinghaus
said, "I was approached by Rascal Flatts' management on a business
trip in the airport. They mentioned how the guys were fans of ours
and asked if we were interested in building them a car for the
release of their new album". Since then, the car was brought along
on the band's tours and was purchased by CEO of Big Machine Records
and owner of NASCAR Xfinity Series team Big Machine Racing, Scott
Borchetta. He is Rascal Flatts record producer and to many other
country music stars. The car was displayed at the July 2011
Brickyard 400 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway where 2-time
Indianapolis 500 winner Dan Wheldon drove it around the track! Dan
Wheldon was one of the best to ever compete in the Indianapolis
500. He passed away in one of the most devastating Indy car races
just a couple months after this event. The "Rascal Flatts" Camaro
was then displayed at both the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, KY
and also in the NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte NC! It has been
driven sparingly since it was new, only accumulating 2,614 miles
total.
Of course, performance is what counts in any muscle car. Upgrades
in the go department include a Harrop supercharger, cold air
intake, 22-inch HRE wheels and handling tweaks by Pedders
suspension and large Baer Brakes Extreme+ 6S brakes. Also, there is
a custom exhaust system with three chrome tips in the rear
representing the three members of the Rascal Flatts! This car comes
with T-Top storage bags, a lighted display of this car, West Coast
Customs DVD box set and owner's manuals.
This very special 2011 Camaro SS represents a rare opportunity to
own a truly unique Camaro. Call today!
