Post Spy Shots: Chevy Camaro arrives at Nürburgring wearing Brembos

We've been seeing Camaro prototypes everywhere since Bob Lutz declared that they will be tested out in public without any camouflage to cover their flanks. Camaro prototypes now hold as much of our interest as spy shots of the next Aveo (not really, but hyperbolic statements like that help make the point). But here we have a new batch of spy shots from a place where the Camaro has yet to set rubber to road: Germany. There's only one reason for a U.S.-spec car to be in Germany, and that's to undergo testing at the famed Nürburgring Nordschleife. GM has made the 'Ring a second home for many of its performance vehicles, and the Camaro will benefit from being thrashed on one of the world's most famous tracks while spy photographers watch with their lenses focused and stop watches in hand. This particular Camaro arrived wearing new shoes, as well. The car is sporting a set of conspicuously bright red Brembo calipers, which perhaps suggests that these stoppers will be an option on the car or standard equipment on the Camaro SS. Autoblog

Isn't the top part of the bumper/grille area along with the bulge in the hood different as well? Like the Z06. SS I presume

Looks pretty clean, I'm impressed how close the body has stayed to the concept car.

The ambers are simply to comply with Euro regs, I 'm sure we won't bee seeing them over here. I'm liking it though... I wish we got the single lamp projectors, those really brought back the first gen look.

First thing I'd do is make a ridiculously cool Sunoco Camaro clone...

Someone at GM must have read this thread. Saw a new Camaro painted like this today and it looks bad a$$!
