A Closer Look At The 2017 Camaro ZL1

Details on the 2017 Camaro just barely became available, but it seems the updated version of the iconic racer is already changing the automotive game. The ZL1 is said to be able to challenge even the most advanced sports cars in the world in ANY category.

“The Camaro ZL1 is designed to excel at everything,” said Mark Reuss, executive vice president of Global Product Development. “It’s a 2+2 coupe offering incredible performance – acceleration, handling and braking – with the highest levels of technology and perfect chassis damping, making it suitable for everyday driving. It will compare well to any sports coupe, at any price and in any setting.”

If there was one word that described the new Camaro ZL1, it would have to be functionality. The exterior design took more than 100 hours of wind-tunnel and on-track testing for optimal aerodynamics and cooling.

“The design supports the Camaro ZL1’s exceptional performance and does so with compelling style,” said John Mack, Camaro exterior design manager. “From every angle, the elements coalesce to give the car a purposeful, super aggressive attitude.”

Under the hood, the new ZL1 features a new supercharged 6.2L V-8 engine that provides an estimated 640 horsepower. Paired with either a six-speed manual transmission with active rev matching or the all-new 10-speed automatic transmission, the ZL1 might be too much car for a run-of-the-mill driver who knows nothing about cars.

“Driving the Camaro ZL1 is best described as ‘fast with finesse,’” said Reuss. “It is beautifully balanced, with perfect damping and isolation for optimal performance and driver confidence in virtually any situation – from the Pacific Coast Highway to Willow Springs to Pomona.”

Perhaps the most inpressive feature on the new 2017 Camaro ZL1 is the fact that it doesn’t require any optional packages in order to be track ready. That capability comes standard, which again, already has people talking.

A New Camaro, Coming Soon

Certain cars are American icons. Their styles may change as the years go by, but their essence, their ability to capture the American spirit, do not. The Chevy Camaro is one of these cars. And though it's changed a lot since they very first 1967 model, it still packs a punch as one of the most beloved muscle cars.

The new 2017 Camaro ZL1 takes everything people love about the Camaro even further. From the supercharged 6.2L LT4 engine to the available 10-speed automatic transmission, the ZL1 packs unprecedented power.

But a car this incredible doesn't just happen, it's the culmination of decades of experience. And now that it's almost ready to come to homes around the country, Chevrolet engineers and designers are taking it through its final series of test runs.

Day it Forward at Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray

2016 provided an extra 24 hours in the form of Leap Day, and all of us at Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray decided to use the extra time to give back to our community.

We identified three different charities in the community and headed out into the community. Employees at Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray spent time helping out at the Utah Food Bank, The Boys and Girls Club and a local charity started by 12-year-old Armani McFarland.

Thanks to the votes from Utahns we were able to donate an extra $500 to One Can Make a Change.

Thank you to all who helped make this day possible! We sincerely believe we have the best employees and live in the best community around.

The Redesign That Put Camaro back On the Map

Chevrolet Camaro has been one of the most iconic muscle-cars on the road since its debut in 1966, and over the next 35 years, the Camaro remained as one of the most-wanted cars in America. However, its fourth generation model stopped production due to slowing sales, a deteriorating market and plant overcapacity. 

Chevrolet was left with a dilemma, and ultimately decided to table a Camaro redesign until 2010, when the 2010 model received a modern and upgraded redesign. The new look, combined with the almost 10-year hiatus, lit a fire in consumers and critics alike. The fifth-generation Camaro went on to win an unprecedented amount of awards, including World Car Design of the Year at the World Car of the Year Awards. This could only mean one thing…

                                               

The Camaro was back, and we mean REALLY back.

The fifth-generation Camaro saw its final model year in 2015, as Chevrolet announced the all-new 2016 model would be redesigned as the sixth generation. While the all-new generation of Camaro is sure to be impressive, the prior version became iconic all on its own by bringing an American muscle-car back to front-pages all over the world.

The 2010 Camaro was impressive enough to win the hearts of every car-enthusiast, but the 2015 model was the Camaro, perfected. The proof is in the features. A standard 2015 Camaro boasts a direct injection V6 engine with 323 horsepower and 30 MPG. 

Inside, you’ll find RECARO Performance bucket seats, a flat-bottom steering wheel, Bluetooth wireless technology, Siri Eyes Free and a Color Driver Information Center that relays necessary information for optimal performance.
