2002 Chevrolet Camaro Specs and Features

Happy 35th, Camaro

Fads come and go. Other things – Saturday nights, the sound of classic rock ’n roll and a thrill ride called Chevy Camaro – just get better and better. It’s been 35 years since the first Camaro roared to life, escalating the classic Chevrolet-Ford rivalry to a fever pitch. Enthusiasts have always loved that. Right from the beginning – with its dramatic styling, 350 V8 and choice of coupe or convertible models Camaro was “the closest thing to a Vette yet.” Words like “SS,” “Z28” and “Rally Sport” meant one thing a very cool Chevy.

Through changing times and changing rules, Camaro has never compromised. To this day, the most youthful of Chevys is still a V8, rear-drive muscle car with DNA that dates directly back to the fall of 1966. Who could have imagined what would follow? Styling that has been consistently nothing less than an art form. Performance that has blown away the competition. To everyone who has ever owned – or ever dreamed of owning – a Chevy Camaro, we dedicate the 35th anniversary of “Performance American Style.”
