Chevrolet and Indianapolis Motor Speedway unveiled the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS Indianapolis 500 pace car. The first year for Camaro to pace the Indianapolis 500 was in 1967, the year the Camaro made its debut. Camaro has since paced the race in 1969, 1982, 1993 and 2009.
The new Chevrolet Camaro SS Pace Car is equipped with a stock 400 hp 6.2L V-8, an RS appearance package and leather interior with Inferno Orange interior accents. The pace car also features unique design cues that further improve the Camaro’s head-turning design. The features that are unique to the pace car include: 2010 Indianapolis 500 event logo painted on doors and embroidered on driver and passenger headrests, 2010 Indianapolis 500 event logo badges on front fenders, All-new front grille insert that Chevrolet plans to present as a future Camaro accessory, Amber lens tail lamps, Complete safety strobe light system with custom interior light bar in the back window (no rooftop light bar) and All-new GM Accessory floor mats with orange and red accent stitching.
Starting around $23,000 and offering an EPA-estimated 29 highway mpg (miles per gallon) on the V-6-powered car, the all new Camaro is a budget friendly sports car that doesn’t sacrifice on performance. Despite the recent economic challenges, the Camaro has overtaken its neighboring competitor to lead the regular sports car segment in sales for the last 6 months. Chevrolet sold more than 6,000 Camaros in each of these months.
People will get their first look at the 2010 Chevy Camaro SS Indianapolis 500 pace car when it makes its auto show debut at the Indianapolis Auto Show starting on December 26.
