NEWS: Report: Two Chevy dealers offering special 700-hp Camaro models - just like Yen
Filed under: Aftermarket, Car Buying, Videos, Chevrolet, GM
DeNooyer Chevrolet of Albany has dipped into GM's Performance Parts catalog and come out with an LSX454 engine. After stuffing it into a Camaro, they know have a 620-horsepower coupe prowling their lot. In Georgia, NeSmith Chevrolet also took a look into the catalog and put in an order for supercharged LS9 normally found in a Corvette ZR1. Their NeSmith Storm Camaro puts out nearly 700 horses. In other words, the COPO is back! Check out our gallery below and then hop the jump to see video clips of both cars. Thanks for the tip, Tony!

The COPO Camaros are back (sorta) - Click above for image gallery
There was a time when dealers utilized General Motors' Central Office Production Order to the fullest, giving us some truly terrific muscle car options. By judiciously picking hi-po OEM performance parts to augment some already formidable performers, COPO Chevrolet Camaros from the late '60s put a few dealers on the national map, and today, we know about Berger, Nickey and, of course, Yenko. Well... the Camaro is certainly back, but where are the modern COPO versions? If you live near Albany, New York or Claxton and Jessup, Georgia then the cars are right down the street at your local dealerships.

There is nothing wrong with the front end of that Camaro.. is a regular front end with the regular ground effects... the problem is not the car...
but the photographer.... thinking that using wide angle lens and placing the nose where the lens will distort the cr@p out of the nose making it look much longer than what it really is. and on top of that he went HDR happy... *rolleyes*
