Chevrolet Camaro 2012 Bahrain Prices & Specs

The new-for-2010 Camaro, which more or less looks just like the overexposed prototype, took the car world by storm on launch. Powered by a 3.6-litre V6 or a 6.2-litre V8, it rides on a shortened rear-wheel-drive Lumina SS platform, with four-wheel independent suspension and 2+2 seating. The Camaro comes in V6 LT and V8 SS trims, with an RS package adding some appearance enhancements. The V6 is only available with a 6-speed paddle-shifted automatic in the GCC. The SS gets a choice of two V8 engines, each customised for use with a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic. The automatic V8 features cylinder deactivation to improve fuel economy. In 2011, the V6 got a mild power upgrade. StabiliTrak traction control and front-side airbags are standard, while Brembo brakes are available on the SS version. The SS, recognisable by its fake bonnet vent, also gets stiffer suspension and adjustable Competitive/Sport modes for stability control and Launch Control on manual models. The hard-plastic cabin comes with cloth or leather interior, with standard blue LED lighting and optional glow-in-the-dark trim panels. Standard rims include 18-inch wheels for the V6 and 20-inch ones for the V8. The RS appearance package includes HID headlamps with integrated halo rings, spoiler, chrome tail-light rings, sticker stripes and 21-inch wheels.
