Based on the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray spread on display at the 2014 SEMA Show, it looks like there is a good change that the performance parts division could begin offering key components from the 2015 Z06, allowing Stingray owners to get some of the go-fast features of the super-Vette without laying out “Z06 money”.

Among the large, centralized General Motors display at the 2014 SEMA Show is a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe that has been customized by Kiss guitarist Paul Stanley and while this C7 Stingray isn’t as outrageous as others around the show – the Starchild’s little red Corvette is impossible to miss.

An impressive streak came to an end last month: the current generation of plug-in vehicles delivered fewer copies year-over-year for the first time ever. The main culprit was slow sales of plug-in hybrids, influenced by several factors.

The first Chevrolet Corvette to be repaired after falling into the National Corvette Museum sinkhole is the 2009 Blue Devil ZR1 and as a surprise accompaniment to the highly modified new models at the 2014 SEMA Show – the good-as-new Blue Devil test car made its world debut before heading back to its home in Bowling Green Kentucky.

Our latest look at the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro comes from automotive artist chazcron and while we have seen some excellent artwork depicting the next generation Camaro – this work might just be the most accurate in predicting what the new Chevy muscle car will look like when it hits the street.

I frequently see people posting on forums and social networks about how muscle cars should only be offered with V8 engines, but production statistics for the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro paint a very clear picture as to why all three American automakers offer their muscle cars with smaller engines in addition to the powerful V8.

A few weeks back we brought you the news that the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 had crashed while testing on the Nürburgring, but there is good news for GM fans hoping for a new track record – the C7 Corvette Z06 is back to work on “The Ring”, this time in Laguna Blue and with the new 8-speed automatic transmission.

GM has said that the second-generation Volt set to debut at the North American International Auto Show in January will be better in every way. After today’s press event detailing many of the impressive changes in the 2016 Volt, two major questions are still unanswered.

The next generation Chevrolet Camaro is expected to arrive for the 2016 model year after a Detroit debut in January, but I don’t think that we will see any premium performance models until after the high volume models have hit showrooms – unless GM has a monster Camaro that will challenge Dodge’s Hellcat.

General Motors has issued a pair of recalls for the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray due to two separate and unrelated safety risks that were initially the cause for a stop sale order when the 2015 models first began reaching dealerships last month, but around 900 examples of the affected Corvettes did reach consumers so a recall was necessary.

The 2015 Ford Mustang has been billed by many fans as the pony car that would conquer the Chevrolet Camaro, but with the folks at Motor Trend having taken the two cars to Willow Springs Raceway for a head to head comparison – it seems that the Mustang is still trailing the aging Camaro.

We have looked at a great many 2016 Chevrolet Camaro renderings over the past year or so, but none of them were as well done, as well detailed or as realistic looking at these new images from the folks at TopSpeed.com – showing what could be a very good preview of what we might see when the 6th gen Camaro debuts in 2015.

The pricing is available for the 2015 Dodge Challenger, the 2015 Ford Mustang and the 2015 Chevrolet Camaro and once again, the brawny Mopar muscle car is the least expensive option for those looking to get into a V8 powered American muscle car for as little cash as possible.

The first 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible will head to the Barrett Jackson Scottsdale event in January with the proceeds set to benefit the United Way of Michigan and based on the results of the past three C7 Corvette charity auctions, we have to expect that Mr. Rick Hendrick will be looking to put down at least a million dollars for Z06 droptop #1.
