Five changed engine and trim flat combinations are offered for the just out 2011 Camaro.
The new Camaro made its debut in 2010. The Camaro is offered in three different V6, and two different V8, versions for the 2011 model year. The V6 options are the LS, 1LT and 2LT. After eight years out of production, the new Camaro came back with a retro look that can be attributed to the first generation Camaros of the late 1960s. The new Camaro gained fame and notoriety from its appearance as the car that transforms into Bumble Bee in the hit movie, "Transformers."
