Muscle(car) man and style critic Lee Quinones tested out the 2010 Chevy Camaro SS at the 10th Annual Toy Run for St. Mary’s Hospital for Children. Who says press cars aren’t used for noble purposes?

There is internal disagreement about the particulars of this vehicle in Gotryke garage. Some of us love the brawny shifter. We’ll Lee tell it his way. We heard the kids at St. Mary’s dug the red Camaro.

What has not been debated about our beloved classic remade, the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro? What I can tell you is, that this new pup into the doggy dog world of steroid ego is one city slicker. The LS, SS, and RS models are hard to distinct from one another so here then lies a sleeper cell of cars.

Its 426 HP motor lets you feel a sense of what was and what is here now. It boogies. The shifter knob is beyond knob; it’s a ball, a basketball at that. Too big for my comfort to row gears in a hurry. The steering wheel is super fly with its cut edged face. It resembles the classic tuff wheels of the early seventies.

Though the roof lines are handsome, it is cut a little hair too much. It created a nerve wrapped driving experience, though someone should be on the red alert when driving this kind of animal. The cockpit is comfy and snug and the rear seat might has not be included in the package. Putting an infant car seat there is nothing short of G..dam it as I discovered!

The trunk lid could have used a little more trimming on its cut to maybe create an even bigger trunk space, but it passes. People were not really feeling the rear light panel. My two cents is that two discreet lights were better than four. Can’t wait to see, let alone drive an LS7 427 Factory race Camaro ala ZL1 pedigree.

Woo-ha! I picked up the 2010 Chevy Camaro Friday night from a Manhattan parking garage. Let the games begin. Here it is Mother’s Day and a car show later, I’m celebrating the motherload in all it’s glory. Usually, we at Gotryke like to digest our reviews before sending them your way, but we’re just too thrilled to be muscling our way through Brooklyn on this sunny day that we had to spout off with opinions. We’re reporting to you live from a Brooklyn cafe a s the blazing Camaro taking a siesta in the afternoon sun. More coverage, flicks & thrills after the jump.

Detroit is down shifting. It was not long ago that the Big Three were best known for speed, horsepower and big hefty torque. So 2008. While the Camaro, Challenger and Mustang souped-up additions were on display, their presence was subdued in lieu of the electrified concept machines — making a slower go at fuel economy. The most surprising is the Lincoln C-Concept with a 4-cylinder EcoBoost. Yet, the word about town was how great Chrysler’s EVS are to drive, as one of my colleagues enthusiastically bragged. Personally, I think the Cadillac Converj is a sexy take on refined luxury for a brand that showed promise since it broke out of the shell a few concept cycles ago.
