Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Houston is proud to offer this awesome 2001
Chevrolet Camaro SS with only 65,705 miles on it. This car is
outfitted with the popular and stout LS1 V8 engine and a 6 speed
manual transmission. The LS1 engine is one that is well known in
the car world and is arguably one of the best engines that they
have made to date. This one is finished in the beautiful and
desirable sunset orange metallic and a black leather interior. 2001
was the lowest production year for the Camaro with 29,009 units.
This was partially due to production ending earlier than usual to
begin work on the 35th Anniversary cars. The Z28 and SS models
received the intake manifold from the LS6, the engine used in the
fifth generation Corvette Z06 from 2001 to 2004 and the first
generation Cadillac CTS-V from 2004 to 2005. This change also
resulted in a revised camshaft profile and removal of the EGR
system. GM also introduced a new slave cylinder for the clutch
assembly that was superior to the design of previous years, as well
as an LS6 clutch in manual models. Accordingly, stated power
ratings were increased to 310 hp (231 kW) for the Z28 and 325 hp
(242 kW) for the SS which also added a power steering cooler. SLP
reintroduced the RS model this year, which included rally stripes
and stock cold air intake system and Z28 take-off exhaust (from
their SS conversions). This car is optioned with air conditioning,
AM/FM radio, CD player, T-Tops, cruise control, lumbar support,
power brakes, power steering, power locks, power seats, power
windows, anti-lock brakes, tilt wheels, traction control, seat
belts, driver airbag, passenger airbag, anti-theft system, leather
interior, radial tires and aluminum wheels. These F-Body Camaros
are ever increasing in value. To find one with low miles and in
such great condition is getting harder and harder. This is
definitely a future classic and a great buy. Call the Houston
