The Camaro's Domination Factor: Hefty Trendsetter in its own Awards Class

It's no secret that Memphis has always had a huge street scene as far as racing, and up and down Summer Avenue you can still find ultra-cool rod shops, as well as tons of drivers who appreciate the art. You can hit up spots like the Memphis International Raceway to catch the slightly more lawful version of the pastime, and see world-class events like Racing Made Safe, Journeyman Racing, and the Summit Bracket Racing Series. The Camaro has long been a staple on racetracks nationwide, and many fans and drivers alike have been amazed at just how awesome, powerful and downright sinister this vehicle is.

A combination of distinct design and raw power such as this is bound to win awards, and the Camaro has absolutely had a stellar year. J.D. Power and Associates billed it as the "Most Dependable Midsize Sporty Car, Five Years in a Row." This well-respected entity conducts surveys of customer satisfaction, product quality and buyer behavior within the auto industry. They rely heavily on the survey responses of customers who are specifically targeted, and it's no surprise that the Camaro pulled down this honor.

Car and Driver is a monthly publication geared towards auto enthusiasts worldwide: known for a slightly irreverent tone and habit of being blunt, they have habitually browbeaten SUV's, and are a forum that would make any auto brand proud to be favored in. The Camaro ranked on their "10Best" list this year, and a dazzling 3.5 second time for the 0-60 launch doesn't hurt any. When you come pay us a visit and check out just how exciting this car really is with a test drive, you'll be sitting at the helm of a racehorse that runs the quarter-mile in 11.4 seconds, dominating any setting that is thrown in its midst.

Kelley Blue Book has awarded the Camaro with the 2016 Best Resale Value Badge: one that is well-earned, and one of the most useful aspects of any vehicle. If the time does come when you do want to part ways with your purchase, it will not have depreciated as much as many other models down the chain. You're going to have to try pretty hard to find a reason to sell her, but we recognize that changes do occur in life, and when they do, you won't be left too incredibly short-changed.

You are going to love the aggressive front splitter on the Camaro, and the 3-stanchion spoiler, which is there to heavily increase downforce. The Carbon-fiber composite hood air extractor is on the scene to move air from the engine, and decrease the lift on the ride. A wing-style rear spoiler and diffuser help the ZL1 model keep up with the high level of performance expected from it, and the Camaro is one vehicle that won't disappoint. Magnetic Ride Control is an amazing form of suspension that actually reads road conditions 1,000 times per second.

As you begin to take a corner, the patented suspension fluid is engaged, which stiffens the suspension and reduces the amount of body roll you encounter. It's another ingenious additive that helps you get every bit of performance out of your ride, and keep you firmly planted while taking the tightest of turns. Come pay us a visit at Chuck Hutton and pay homage to the beloved muscle car that first debuted in 1966: The entire 6th-generation product line is gonna less-than-nonchalantly knock your socks off!
