It's not every day you come across a modern muscle car that
perfectly balances raw American power with a sharp, dialed-in
aesthetic. Built right here in the Midwest at the Lansing Grand
River assembly plant in late October 2016, this 2017 Chevrolet
Camaro 2SS Convertible is a prime celebration of the model's 50th
anniversary. Finished in a slick Nightfall Gray Metallic, this
specific car is a highly optioned piece of automotive history
rather than just another run-of-the-mill production build.
While a factory Fifty Edition is special right out of the gate,
this particular example takes things to a whole new level. The
exterior has a seriously aggressive stance, backed by a
comprehensive list of custom aerodynamic upgrades. Carbon fiber
dipped front upper and lower grilles pair perfectly with matching
carbon fiber canards, a front splitter, rockers, rear spoiler, and
an aggressive rear diffuser. These thoughtful additions work
hand-in-hand with the factory Fifty Edition orange stripes, unique
20-inch machined-face wheels, and bright orange brake calipers to
make this car stand out in any showroom or cruise night.
Under the hood sits a proper naturally aspirated powerhouse: the
6.2-liter LT1 V8, putting down a solid 455 horsepower and 455 lb-ft
of torque. That power is managed by a quick-shifting 8-speed
automatic transmission equipped with remote start for those crisp
early mornings. But the real magic of this Camaro lies in its
$6,870 worth of optional factory equipment. Outfitted with Magnetic
Ride Control and the Dual Mode Performance Exhaust, this
convertible seamlessly transitions from a smooth highway cruiser to
a canyon-carving track weapon at the push of a button.
The interior reflects that same level of purposeful execution.
Dropping the power top reveals a premium Black and Gray cabin with
exclusive orange stitching and illuminated Fifty sill plates. The
cockpit is further upgraded with aftermarket carbon fiber trim
accents, while the engine bay and trunk have been dressed up with
custom stainless steel modifications. This is a thoroughly sorted,
turn-key investment that's ready for the open road today.
