LeMans Camaro rendering
Ever since the muscle car movement was revitalized with the retro style Mustang making it's debut, only to be joined by the Camaro and Challenger, speculation runs wild concerning what types of racing counterparts we will see in the future.
A man by the name of Bo Zolland at Viztech has rendered what he thinks a LeMans Camaro would look like, and we must say that the car lends itself nicely to this look.
While this is obviously no guarantee that such a car would ever be produced, it's nice to think about what could be.

The VR Camaro: 80% Chevy, 20% Lamborghini?
The VR Camaro you see here is very different from your run of the mill tuner Camaro. You see, it takes it's styling inspiration from the Lamborghini Reventon. While that may sound strange and perhaps revolting, the finished product is anything but.
The VR is available in two color schemes, either white and gold or black and gold. Once you make it past the in-your-face front end styling, the rest of the car is rather subtle. The decklid has a retro looking ducktail spoiler. All body mods are crafted out of carbon fiber.
22 inch wheels are attached to a new coil over suspension, and the brakes carry 12 piston front calipers and 8 piston on the rear. The engine is of course supercharged with a promised 600 horsepower.
The VR Camaro will be available in the first quarter of 2010.

2010 Dodge Challenger R/T now available in Detonator Yellow
The Dodge Challenger is a nice throwback to simpler times, when horsepower was king and everybody wanted to look good and win the stoplight drags at the same time. While the Challenger is not going to see any major updates (it just came out a model year ago, after all) it will be seeing some new colors.
We've already seen the car in it's classic Plum Crazy hue, and now we have our first look at the Challenger R/T in Detonator Yellow. This is the "high impact" color that preceded Plum Crazy.

Bob Lutz says "perhaps" we will see twin turbo Camaro
After seeing the Jay Leno Camaro at SEMA, one has to wonder if we could potentially see the car in production some day. After all, with Ford rolling out it's line of EcoBoost engines, wouldn't GM want to follow suit with it's own fuel friendly, performance oriented pony car?
When InsideLine asked Bob Lutz about it he simply responded "perhaps." Take it how you will, but he didn't say no. In addition to this all telling comment, he also confirmed that there will be a production version of the Camaro Synergy.
