I know this is mainly about the silverado but i wasnt sure if anyone else knew of this Roush Camaro possibility because i sure didn't. Hopefully the Camaro wont have too many variations and names like the mustang has.

TheGMSource - A few months back we were the first to bring you news that Roush would be working 1 on 1 with General Motors to develop performance products for current and future GM products.

We expect a Roush Camaro sometime in 2010 or 2011 but before then, it appears as if Roush will be working with GM to give the Silverado a kick in the ass to pick up where the SVT Ford Lightening left off.

First, lets start off by saying that we were tipped off to this by a post made over at the Camaro z28 forum and the poster in question had best hope his I.P. address is not on file. that little "confidential" piece on the bottom of the photo (below) means whoever leaked this is pretty much fubared.

With that said. There are absolutely no specs or info like date of availablity or price we can give. Why? Because there's nothing known about this truck. Other than the fact that it likely cost somebody their job and their wife will be extremely pissed off at them for doing something stupid.

Oh yea...by the way...we're really digging the looks of it!

Everybody "expects" stuff, you know? Like how a lot of people are 'expecting' a 550hp Camaro it's first year out...

I can definitely see different versions of Camaro. It's anybody's guess which, but there WILL be some. It's inevitable.

Nice find

, but I think the that article has more weight in it's Silverado topic - which, btw, is pretty interesting.

The attached pic looks pretty crappy, which could mean that he/she copied it in haste - lower dpi - and it does say that it's for Roush eyes only, and that copying is prohibited...so

I take it as true

*TAG UR IT* · 09-03-2007, 01:11 AM

cell phone pic maybe? Either way, I like the idea and the looks of it. I'm tired of seeing the same old plain jane Silverado's runnin' round. I'd like to see some variety!

MerF · 09-03-2007, 09:56 AM

Good find.

EllwynX · 09-03-2007, 03:52 PM

Without the stripes I might like it. With 'em I'm not sure what I think.

Roush Camaro? I had no idea that could even happen since Roush Racing is the only real team that Ford has in NASCAR. Some other teams might, but I am highly suspicious of this Roush Camaro

Ford is sending Roush in to sabotage the Camaro, and ruin it's good name, in an effort to eliminate the competition. :eek:

*TAG UR IT* · 09-04-2007, 02:12 AM

All I want is a Foose 5th Gen Camaro....no Rousch...no Saleen....no nada. Solamente FOOSE!!!

In fact, he can take my car and do whatever he wants with it!!!

acscamarochick06 · 09-04-2007, 08:33 AM

Not seeing a Roush or Saleen anything with the Camaro... And that's not a bad thing!

Dan · 09-04-2007, 08:55 AM

Rousch, Saleen , and Foose all need to stay the hell away from the Camaro.

MerF · 09-04-2007, 09:46 AM

You guys do realize that Saleen was the reason that there even WAS a 5th gen in Transformers, right?

As long as there aren't 437,342, 293.99 versions of the Camaro...none of them with any performance upgrades, then I say "Go for it boys!"...let them develop some aftermarket for the Camaro...just look at the Mustang aftermarket. We've never had it anywhere as good as the dime-a-dozens, as far as parts go, so this can be a really positive thing.

*TAG UR IT* · 09-04-2007, 10:17 AM

Agreed...can be a positive thing. Foose, IMO, is a genious and a natural when it comes to cars. I wouldn't mind seeing the other versions. But, the most important version to me is the Foose version. W/out even seeing it, I'd take it over a Saleen or Rousch....w/out a doubt.

Kyle.Gilmour · 09-04-2007, 10:19 AM

Ok, i may be having a brain fart or not seeing something, but what is this car?
At first glance thought it was a Camaro Chop, but it just looked to smooth and rounded and seen the lights in the side mirrors, the double headlights. Does anyone have an answer for me?

*TAG UR IT* · 09-04-2007, 11:08 AM

looks like the Camaro to me.
