The SEMA Show, the annual Las Vegas performance car extravaganza, is always a hotbed for unique customized car models. The 2008 show saw the unveiling of the Chevrolet Camaro Black – a dark, high-performance Camaro modded using a host of GM performance parts.
Most notable among the Camaro Black’s features are: classy five-spoke wheels, unique front splitter, side skirts, and sinister red rings on the headlights. All these are overlaid on the matte black exterior finish. The windows and tail light lenses are also tinted. No doubt about it, the Camaro Black looks very daunting and classy. No details were disclosed regarding engine specs and other components ‘neath the hood, but expect at least a 300-horsepower V6.
This is clearly GM taking advantage of the SEMA exposure to hype up the Camaro further, as well as to show off its performance parts. Along with other modified models (the SS and the one-of-a-kind Dale Earnhardt, Jr. custom were also shown at the SEMA show), Chevy feeds public interest until the car rolls off the assembly lines and to dealerships in Spring of 2009.
