Camaro Convertible
Here is what we know so far. the 2013 ZL1 Camaro Convertible will be powered by the potent LSA V-8 found in the 2012 ZL1 Coupe. This supercharged package turns out a massive 580 horsepower and 556 lb-ft of torque.
A new road hugger suspension that is 1½ inches closer to the ground and an extra inch of rear width with about ¾ inch of extra front width that should make this baby really fun in the corners.
That extra width is handy to house the 285×20 front meats and 305×20 rears. True performance doesn't come cheap and Chevy is here to make it official by shipping the ZL1 Camaro Convertibles with performance rated Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar tires on all four corners.
According to Chevy, a significant amount of testing went into the new aerodynamics on the Camaro. An all new front splitter, rockers and diffuser were designed and tested to work as a system to balance down force and keep this rocket on the pavement.
HID, high-intensity discharge, headlamps with glowing LED halo rings add a custom look that sets the ZL1 Camaros apart.
