This iconic muscle car was introduced in 1966 for the 1967 model year. This model was rated at 290 horsepower for insurance purposes, but really put out closer to 400 near its 7000 rpm redline.

Shown here is a first-generation Chevy Camaro Z/28. These first models shared their platform and many of their major components with the Pontiac Firebird of the same year. When asked to define the word "Camaro", a Chevrolet executive said it was a "small, vicious animal that eats Mustangs".
