the camaro was being developed since 1960. besides the design taking so long they also couldn't decide on a name. it was almost released as the panther but changed it to camaro at the last moment.
@wamnintendo1 Yeah, that's why they look so much better. The new Camaro looks like a bulldozer, it's redeeming feature is the awesome engine, the new Challenger is too big and bulky, but the front end is amazing, and the new Mustang, to me, is an all-around masterpiece that every car enthusiast should enjoy. For every F-body year, I'd say the Camaro/Firebird was better looking than the respective Mustang.
its sad the camaro isnt the orignial pony car, its is just so beautiful, then the dodge charger/now challenger, the the ford. mustangs suck now, what they should do is remake the ford torino. thats an awsome car
No doubt, Mustangs were all the rage and **thee** first "young people's" car for about 3 or 4 years. But after Camaros appeared on the scene, they quickly eclipsed Mustangs as the sport car of choice for the young adult.

The best lines of all of the Camaros. I remember reading about how the inspiration was The Jaguar E (another stunner), but I think I prefer the proportions of the 70 Camaro.
I liked the 70-1/2 Camaro better than the Firebird. The early 2nd gen was really the best of the lot and that includes the new 2010 Holden body. 1st gen was just a rushed into production rebodied Nova to compete with Mustang. 3rd and 4th gen were dopers cars.
Damn my dad got one is 76. The first time I remember I fell in love with how it looked. He gifted it too me when I got 16 and now i drive it all the time. and damn is it ever a chick magnet! =D
aside from the road noise and the growl of a v8. second gen camaros are some of the smoothest and most comfortable cars to drive (and have pretty decent handeling with the z suspension). breaks of course are a different story. Props for digging up this commercial.
back in the day, you went to the dealer and ordered the car you wanted, 2 weeks later they'd call you and say its in...thats why GM is in the hole now cuz they started to make 10,000 cars per selling only 5,000 see?
My guess is that the top end engine was special order only. They probably didn't sell many and didn't want them sitting around. Even today you'll find most cars in-stock on the lot are the same build.
My dad has told of when he special ordered a 427 w/ stick shift for a 67 Grand Marquis wagon. I think it's hilarious he did that, but a Ford-rep talked him out of it.
They had some crazy options back then, probably because they had to be available to be legal in stock car racing.

Dude that was the best year for Camaro. The 1970 Chevy Camaro Z28 was the best. It had everything the 375 horsepower engine that basicly kicks the ass of a mustang by a longshot
I owned a 1970 SS 350 munci 4 speed with a 12 bolt posi and 410 gears all from the factory. Lost my license with about 50+ points or so. They didnt have computers monitoring points back then.
For graduation from high school in 1970, my dad gave me the down payment for my 1970 Camaro. I ordered one from our local Chevy dealer in EL Paso. Took 12 long weeks to build and ship and was brought in on a train from Van Nuys, California. Wish I still had that car... Gold, with a spoiler, center console and such a magnet for girls. Ahhh those were the days.
I was about to turn 18 years old and every day, I rode my motorcycle down to the train yard (for weeks) and one day there it sat, unloaded behind a massive chain link fence. You simply can't imagine what a feeling that was. 11 moths later, I was off to Vietnam, sold the Camaro and have regretted it all these 38 years! Gawd, I miss that gold Camaro!
I'm an arthritic old man these days, but I'd gladly take the pain of getting into and out of a 70 Camaro again now that I'm about to turn 57. That 70 Camaro (to me) was at the time the most radical looking car to come out of Detroit in it's day. Still is a very classy looking car.
I'd die to show up at my 40th high school reunion in a 70 gold Camaro. What a hoot that would be.
i have a 73 ss my dad has had it over 20 years its been repainted 3 times and all of my sisters and mom have crashed it and i get it with a thousand problems a worn out motor,interior, primer paint and all most all the exterior panels need to be replaced(no rust in the floor or the trunk thank god)
BUT I WOULD NOT TRADE IT FOR ANY THING IM TAKING THIS BASTARD TO THE GRAVE WITH ME, AND I WIL CONQUER ANY MAKE AND MODEL DOMESTIC AND IMPORT FOR HOW EVER LONG I CAN STILL SMASH THE PEDLIE AND RACE.

i have a 1970 camaro metallic blue with white racing stripes. its pushin bout 400 horsepower. best camaro ever made is 1970. btw im 20 and i only got the car cuz my dad bought it for me and told me to fix it 4 years ago lol. its badass now.
My grandma had a 77 Type LT Camaro, the last year they had chrome bumpers. I found out I was gonna get it but her husband wrecked it. She had it for twenty years, got it brand new and it wasn't even the car she was gonna buy.
My father bought a brand new 1970 Camaro from Jay Kline Chevrolet in Minneapolis. He gave it to me in 1998. I still have it. Needs to be restored but it is driveable; I wouldn't hesitate to take it around the world. Different engine and the transmission has been gone through twice but it's all Chevrolet.
it would actualy be a 70 1/2 because they didnt start till half way through the year....we looked at a 70 1/2 for me but we found a 81 in better shape
I don't care what anyone says, I have a suit just like that guy, and I wear it all the time. Of course, I lost all of my friends because of that, but you can't wear friends, now can you? My theory on nitrous, if your car is still on the bottle, its because it hasn't Manned up enough to go on raw power. Remember, those little juice bottles do go empty, then what? I liked the video. Ford used to have women, that was always better. Women, not necessarily Ford.
I HAVE A 70 CAMARO!!!!! HAHAHA! AND ITS ALLLLLLLLL MINE!!!! 383 stroker with a 6 speed transmission!!!!!!!!!! with nitrous too! Rally Sport. gotta love that split bumper!

No offense but only pussys ride nitro. You have to have faith in your machine like i have a 1970 Chevy Camaro Z28 with a 415 Stingray engine in it with a 4 spd manual.
hahaha, wow, thats like a review of the car, not a commercial, nowadays the yjust show u the car going around a corner, than get you witch a catch line ,ad nthe comericials over:P
camaros are the shit. i've been looking for a 70-73 camaro for a couple of years now. can't wait till i get one. i've had 5 3rd gens. in fact i sold 3 this year and still own one. i will love the camaro till the day i die.
The 1970 camaro was chevrolets best success. The 1970 camaro had improvments over the 1967-1969 camaros. The down fall was the gas crunch, smog, and the 5mph bumpers which all 3 came to play in 1974. Give the 1970- 1973 camaro 5 more years and they to will be untouchable, and maybe equal on desire as the 1969. Think I am full of shit look back to 1996 3k would get you a 1969 in socal. today a running 1970 camaro cost over 3-5k easy. with fine examples breaking over 25k.
nathan, I'm nathan too and I spun out in a 94 Z28... going strait. lol I like firebirds better as a 2nd gen but camaro def looked better 1st gen... in my opinion.
Man, they made some real cars back in the day. Cars that were unique...hell you could tell them apart just by their taillights! Today, cars are generic; nothing to set one apart from the next. Just look at all the SUV's there are...tell me why one is different from the other! I sure miss The Day.
The last good Camaro was made in 1969. Everything since then is a bland, piece of crap, rustbucket. I know, I've owned them. Even the "New" concept car is a cheap imitation of a 69.
wow.... id say something but i think u owned yourself. it's 1970 damn it! u would expect them to be like that. probably more girls should have raced back then.
If you don't like the second gens then why bother looking them up on YouTube.

My grandma had a 77 Type LT Camaro, the last year they had chrome bumpers. I found out I was gonna get it but her husband wrecked it. She had it for twenty years, got it brand new and it wasn't even the car she was gonna buy.

My father bought a brand new 1970 Camaro from Jay Kline Chevrolet in Minneapolis. He gave it to me in 1998. I still have it. Needs to be restored but it is driveable; I wouldn't hesitate to take it around the world. Different engine and the transmission has been gone through twice but it's all Chevrolet.

I don't care what anyone says, I have a suit just like that guy, and I wear it all the time. Of course, I lost all of my friends because of that, but you can't wear friends, now can you? My theory on nitrous, if your car is still on the bottle, its because it hasn't Manned up enough to go on raw power. Remember, those little juice bottles do go empty, then what? I liked the video. Ford used to have women, that was always better. Women, not necessarily Ford.

No offense but only pussys ride nitro. You have to have faith in your machine like i have a 1970 Chevy Camaro Z28 with a 415 Stingray engine in it with a 4 spd manual.

The 1970 camaro was chevrolets best success. The 1970 camaro had improvments over the 1967-1969 camaros. The down fall was the gas crunch, smog, and the 5mph bumpers which all 3 came to play in 1974. Give the 1970- 1973 camaro 5 more years and they to will be untouchable, and maybe equal on desire as the 1969. Think I am full of shit look back to 1996 3k would get you a 1969 in socal. today a running 1970 camaro cost over 3-5k easy. with fine examples breaking over 25k.

Man, they made some real cars back in the day. Cars that were unique...hell you could tell them apart just by their taillights! Today, cars are generic; nothing to set one apart from the next. Just look at all the SUV's there are...tell me why one is different from the other! I sure miss The Day.

The last good Camaro was made in 1969. Everything since then is a bland, piece of crap, rustbucket. I know, I've owned them. Even the "New" concept car is a cheap imitation of a 69.

About the only thing he didn't say was..."What's your sign, baby? I'm a Capricorn, myself. You come here often?"
