Chevrolet Corvette Z06x Track Car Concept 2011
Chevrolet is unveiling the Corvette Z06x Track Car Concept at this year SEMA motor show. The Z06X track car concept, to be created by Chevrolet teamed with Pratt and Miller, will showcase Chevrolet’s expanding portfolio of performance parts to create a full-on track car.
The Z06X concept is based on the Corvette Z06 with the 1LZ equipment package, along with the Z07 Performance Package and CFZ Carbon Fiber Package. The 2011 Z06 with the Z07 package includes carbon ceramic brakes and Magnetic Ride Control, while the CFZ package offers body components that enhance aerodynamic down force on the race track, including a front splitter.
The concept vehicle wears a low-gloss Icy White Metallic exterior color, accented with exposed carbon fiber body components and red trim. The interior features a racing seat, window net and roll cage-mounted camera system. It includes a racing pedal kit, a Genuine Corvette Accessory.
Performance of the Z06x Track Car Concept is guaranteed by LS7 7.0L V-8 engine and Tremec six-speed manual transmission, with low-restriction air intake system and high-capacity radiator and enhanced cooling system. The Z06X uses lightweight racing wheels in black; 19-inch (front) and 20-inch (rear), paired with Michelin racing tires.

New Car Sport and Fast Chevrolet Camaro Review
Since General Motors ended production of its convertible Camaro in 2002, enthusiasts have long wanted him to come back, then GM has made good on in 2007 when they announced that the car is, indeed, would be put back into production. All new for 2010, the latest Chevrolet Camaro back and better than before.
I have a few more weeks before my first test drive, so my report is based on seeing the car for a couple of auto shows in Detroit and Los Angeles, communicating with officials who hand Chevrolet in car design, and analysis of company documentation. The newest model is sold in the first four to six months of production, but the test car will be at my dealer over the next few weeks. I'd already planned my first drive.
Prices for the base V6 powered LS Camaro will be $ 22,995, and the engine V8 Camaro SS will sell for $ 30,995. In October 2008, General Motors began taking orders for the car, five months before the production model rolled off the Brampton, Ontario, assembly line.

A high performance Camaro SS with a monstrous 6.2L V8 is also available, yielding 422 horsepower and 408 lb.-feet of torque. That engine is based on the LS3, a powerplant that can be found under the hood of a Corvette.
So if you're looking for the right balance of performance and fuel economy, you'll want to keep the Chevrolet Camaro in mind, a car that competes with the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger in the important pony (muscle) car segment.

2011 Camaro SS Convertible Neiman Marcus Edition, Now on Video
Following on from Tuesday's presentation of the special edition version of the forthcoming 2011 Camaro SS Convertible that will be offered in this year's Nieman Marcus Christmas catalog, Chevrolet released the first videos of the car with GM's people talking us around the design details.
The Nieman Marcus edition of GM's drop-top muscle car will be produced in a limited run of 100 units, each powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine with pricing set at $75,000 a piece. The regular Camaro Convertible will be given its public premiere at the Los Angeles Auto Show in late November. Click through for the videos, or check out our previous post for all the details on this special edition (but obviously overpriced) model.

Paris Show: Chevrolet Aveo 5-door, Sedan Coming Soon [With Live Pics]
The Aveo is finally here and in the metal, and Chevy says it's aimed at younger buyers interested in a hot-hatch "looking every bit as good as the Aveo RS show car concept". Points for trying, guys, but not really...
Set to hit Europe in the summer of 2011, the Aveo 5-door will be powered by a variety of small-displacement gasoline and diesel engines (ranging from 70 to 115 horsepower) and even be available with a 6-speed stick. For all the specs on available engines and the like, check out our previous post.
The sea of black plastic has seeped out from the interior and found itself all over the exterior of the car, as evidenced by the front and rear light housings and former rear quarter window. Also, whatever was once attractive from the rear 3/4 view (like the C-pillar kink and rear end treatment) seems to have been watered down a notch.
And if the hatchback doesn't do it for you, Chevrolet should be presenting a sedan version of the car either in LA in November or in Detroit in January 2011. Anyone interested in a 180-horsepower SS version?

New Chevrolet Orlando MPV Shows up in Paris (With Live Pictures)
Finally, we've got live pics of the new Chevy Orlando. Essentially the General's answer to the European mid-size MPV question, the small, Cruze-based 7-seater had a bunch of promise back when it originally debuted as a concept.
Somewhere between there and this year's Paris Motor Show, all the old, Judge Whitey executives in the General's back pocket found a way to crush any chance of it being cool by turning the stocky little MPV into an ass-in-the-air high-ish-riding mini-minivan...unless there's an air suspension system I don't know about.
You can see that the interior keeps the decent styling inherited from its platform-mate and appears to actually be sourced from the original concept. Too bad the same can't be said for the rest.
When this little box goes on sale in early 2011, methinks the best things about the whole package are the trick dashboard cubby and its two available diesel torque-makers.
As for the rest, attractive European MPV it ain't. For the full info and specs, check out our previous post, and to see how the Orlando stacks up against the concept, head on over to our Concept to Reality comparo.
