Pictures of 2017 Camaros at the Chicago Auto Show

Visited the Chicago Auto Show on opening day, Saturday, February 11, 2017 and took several pictures of the black ZL1 coupe, Krypton Green V6 1LE, silver Redline, black Lingenfelter ZL1, blue Nickey SS convertible, and the annual Chicago Blackhawks give away contest convertible.

Disappointed that there was no mention of the 50th Anniversary of the Camaro in the Chevy section. No posters, banners, or give away items. They didn't even have a 50th anniversary edition to view. How do you not celebrate the 50th anniversary!!! They did have a few items with the FIFTY logo on them that are available from their catalog or web site but if you didn't know that the car was 50 years old these items didn't mean anything to those wyo saw them. The only other mention of the anniversary was a nice picture display put on by the Chicago Auto Show, not Chevrolet.

The Chevy display did not have a regular SS Camaro or a convertible version??? They didn't even have any info on the ZL1 on the placard, just a note to "see a product specialist for more information." No mention of the upcoming GT4.R either. Seems they could have done a lot more.

Enjoy the pictures of what was there.

LOL, Oh Chevrolet simple things like having no Placard for the ZL1, typical.

Great photos, thanks for sharing.

Did anyone notice the v6 1LE horsepower number? It's 355. I have not heard anything about the v6 1LE getting a bump in horsepower. I've also looked at the Chevy website and it's showing 335 horsepower. Which one is it???

I saw that too. I'm pretty sure it's a misprint. It's kind of embarrassing, if you ask me, that somebody could overlook something like that. Does anyone check the facts before they are printed and put on display?

I noticed the same thing... maybe a few goodies under the hood (CAI, factory tune)
