2010 Chevy Camaro Priced at $22,245, Ordering Open

If you think the economy will rebound around early spring, you might want to place an order for a new 2010 Chevy Camaro today. Chevy dealers are now accepting orders for the muscle car. The base model will start at $22,245, not including $750 in destination charges. That’s for the 300-horsepower, V-6 LS model. Moving up to a V-8 with 400 or 422 hp — depending on the transmission — will cost $30,245, $750 destination charges not included. 

Both prices are relative bargains in the muscle car arena. To find the LS’ hp in a competitor, you’d have to buy a V-8-powered Ford Mustang, which costs $5,000 more. The closest car to the Camaro’s 400-plus-hp V-8 is the 425-hp Dodge Challenger SRT8, which costs $39,280. 

Not only does the Camaro sound like a bargain, it also will get better mileage than its competition. The V-6 will see 27 mpg highway and the V-8 23 mpg highway. That’s compared to 23 mpg and 19 mpg highway for the Mustang and Challenger, respectively. 

What do you think? At this price will the Camaro be a hit?

Id buy it, once i get a better and more secure job, plus itll give GM time to work the bugs out, which hopefully there isnt to many considering how long theyve been talkin about the car, that and it wouldnt help GM at all to have problems with it.

Great way to kill off the Cobalt SS.

I'd like to buy the....car no doubt

the pricing is right where it should be. The base car doesnt come with much but that is the way soome performance car fans like it anyway. Dodge isnt expecting to sell Camaro like numbers of the Challenger and after seeing the details on the Camaro you can see why. This car should have lots of appeal beyond the stereotypical pony car fans.

This is another car in the lineup that should help GM make up for the lost profits in the SUV arena.

Finally, super sport badging returns to a car that deserves it.
