If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up to much space!
For some in the muscle car community the phrase Mopar or NoCar still rings true. The 2013 Dodge Challenger SRT8 was our first chance to get behind the wheel of the modern retro muscle car, and it rounded out or sampling, having previously driven the Camaro and the Mustang.
The Dodge has always looked good, but how does it drive? That’s what we find out in this episode of Rumblestrip.NET and Ten Minute Test Drive.
The name ZL1 Camaro is one of the most reveried in the GM history books. The COPO special was a hand assembled aluminum block 427, and only 69 were ever built. It was in the day when horsepower ratings were done with a wink and a nod in conjunction with the NHRA to slot into different catagories in either Stock or Super Stock racing.
This time the ZL1 name is pulled out as a 550+ horsepower LSA engine is slotted under the hood. The LSA engine is the same one that that powers the CTS-V series of cars, itself a slightly detuned version of the engine from the ZR1 Corvette.
This new ZL1 isn’t just designed for the drag strip, it is built to carve corners and tear up road courses. It comes with larger tires, a much larger brakes, short throw shifter, magnetic ride shocks, and a new limited slip rear end.
Pricing was not announced but we’d guess that this Camaro will come close to, if not surpass $50,000.
