Vaterra 2012 Chevolet Camaro ZL1

The DNA of the 2012 Camaro ZL1 is undeniable. Its muscular looks and 580 horsepower, supercharged V8 are clearly inspired by the 1969 original. And, like its street brawling forbear, it will put the smack down on many of its peers. What sets the modern ZL1 apart are the smart new ways it applies brute force. Magnetic Ride Control makes up to 1000 adjustments per second. Special pickups keep fuel flow steady during high-g turns. Theres even an option for Formula 1-style paddle shifters. Its a whole new breed of Camaro, one thats as big a threat on circuits like Nürburgring as it is at the stoplight.
