Sixties and seventies of last century in the United States and the open countryside straight on the highway more and more mechanical monster, they are fierce and muscular appearance, sound, mad-noise high-powered, so the image is also known as “Muscle
Car (muscle car). “
Muscle cars are no longer the brilliant, but the car enthusiast there are still many people in those days an infinite fascination. May be eager to reproduce the past, peace and prosperity, several major U.S. brand in recent years, the introduction of retro cars are also active. The most obvious example is the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger The return of the troika.
Speaking of Chevrolet Camaro, first thought is that in the movie “Transformers” in a hornet always in the limelight. In order to beat the Ford Mustang sales in North America, the creation of the myth, GM decided to launch a price of tit for tat style, lightweight sports car, so they came into being Camaro. In 1965, the R & D, code-named “Leopard,” a small sports car program was officially launched, but this plan did not start smoothly, until June 28, 1966, the Chevrolet abruptly announced revised plans new sports car, and use “Camaro “instead of” Leopard “code name.
1967
As for the “Camaro” in the end mean? Is said – is a special horse to eat of the ferocious little beasts.
September 12, 1966, the first-generation Chevrolet Camaro sample car debut in Los Angeles, September 29, 1967 shall Camaro into the North American market. The car used rear-drive architecture with the Pontiac
Firebird (Pontiac Firebird) share a common F platform.
In order to beat the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet introduced a variety of power series of exaggerated large displacement models, the first-generation Camaro could be equipped with a variety of V6 and V8 engines, displacement from 4.9L to 7.0L, bent on an attempt to build the field of low-cost sports car a new high-performance market segments.
This meet consumer demand in North America at that time the practice is not wise, or even speed up the direct cause of the decline of the U.S. cars. In improving the process, the first-generation Camaro lightweight body structure has been unable to withstand the weight of high-performance engine, torque, and then in 1969, the first-generation Chevrolet camaro was discontinued.
1969
Second-generation Camaro’s biggest improvements is the increase in body strength, while weight also increased significantly, and power in particular is an astonishing increase of 7.4 liters V8 engine, and this be recorded in the Camaro no longer a family history of being broken, crazy The U.S. engine after the oil crisis era gone forever.
With the Mustang’s position gradually became more distinguished from the second generation Camaro, quickly gained market recognition, since listing in February 1970 put into operation, the second-generation Camaro’s life cycle as long as 11 years.
1970
1971
1975
1976
Production in 1981 is still the third-generation Camaro from GM F platform, of course, the latest and most popular technology has been used, including the four-speed automatic transmission, five-speed manual transmission, 16-inch aluminum alloy wheels and so on. Meanwhile, in order with the same period to confront the Japanese sports car, power powerful supercharged engine, also appeared in the third-generation Camaro’s configuration list.
1984
The third generation camaro has also produced a 11-year period before and after, until it was formally discontinued in 1992, during which, Chevrolet in 1987 and 1992, respectively, introduced the “20th Anniversary Edition” and “25th Anniversary Heritage Edition”, to meet the car Camaro fans to commemorate the legendary demand.
1988
Put into operation in 1993, the fourth-generation Camaro body, that people have not seen the previous three generations of models of classic design elements, but there are still many traditions have been preserved, such as large displacement V8 engine, rear wheel drive structure, 2 and 2 + 2 seat layout and so on.
1999
However, God left the United States car on him, and did not extend longer. From 1993 to 2002, 11-year period, Camaro family ushered in an unprecedented challenges. In fact, this crisis is not only a Camaro is Chevrolet, General Motors, U.S. car crisis. As in Europe, the rapid expansion of Japanese sports car, Camaro’s price advantage narrowing, and finally, the fourth generation camaro was overshadowed by the frustration in the cut-off.
2001
Nevertheless, Camaro fans are still eagerly anticipating its return. Finally, the fourth-generation cut-off four years after the official exhibition of the retro Chevrolet Camaro concept of the first generation of a new concept car, and on August 10 formally announced the fifth-generation Camaro’s production plan.
This model used a newly developed Zeta rear-wheel drive platform, and each will be equipped 300-horsepower 3.6L

By the “Transformers” shocked the world an opportunity, a new generation Camaro popularity soared, at present, the fifth-generation Camaro has been fully put in the North American market, the future it will be possible by the introduction of Shanghai GM sales, becoming the first Camaro family car sold in China type.
Can not be denied, as the American car culture enrichment, no matter what age stood watching, Camaro and Mustang models like the rich are appealing and worthy of collection of. Of course, in today, they may actually be more appropriate for collection.

Cars do need to have personality?
Of course!
If we say that a good car should be as good as men, with speed, strength and sense of security, then there is the same as indispensable, and that is the unique charm of personality. A moderate, not strong-minded man, is not attractive, cars also true.
Let’s take a look at today’s auto market, and which cars are most attractive personality, and which car’s personality the most obscure bar.
Success Stories:
True man style: Cadillac Escalade
Quite similar to celebrities: Jiang Wen, Anthony Wong
Cadillac represents not only luxurious, but also on behalf of the “masculine”, “color” and “courage.”
Cadillac Escalade had just listed on the names of those men closely linked: Jiang Wen, Hu Jun, Anthony Wong … …
You will be surprised to find that Escalade almost “draw” the Chinese entertainment industry the most MAN, the most talented man. And they are also tough and domineering of the Escalade’s a sight, as much of a sympathetic feeling.
Open Cadillac of men, masculine, brave, the most important thing is that they should be inside the spiritual world of the aristocracy, rather than simple-minded, well-developed, muscular limbs.
Strength of the new style: Skoda Octavia
Quite similar to celebrities: Jacky Cheung
Skoda Octavia is a mid-size car in a dark horse. The car is not eye-catching appearance, but in power, and manipulation to bring people to the great surprise. Octavia listing gratifying since the sales to prove: the strength to send do not need to rely on looks to win, because only the real strength, can stand the test of time. This accumulation of power, not those so-called “5m impression” can be a match for compare.
It’s easy to make one think of Hong Kong Jacky Cheung Song of God. There is no outstanding appearance, but with a good singing voice and infectious full, creating a Hong Kong singer is not the old myth. This is how those who rely on packaging and hype up the iconic red can be done?
The new gentry style: Roewe 750
Quite similar to celebrities: Leslie Cheung
When the other high-class cars are still chaotic, boundaries of the pool house is unknown when the muddy battle, the Roewe 750 has identified its own line of competitive differentiation.
Distinct customs and SAIC to give Britain its innovative spirit, it has become an excellent interpretation of the new gentry style. Although we all understand that, in the high-class cars at this level, the “personality school” is often defined as “conservative” has come easy way out. However, the Roewe spare no effort to create a “expensive Ya quality”, but the success has been recognized.
It has been evaluation, and the late star Leslie Cheung’s temperament and the Roewe 750 is quite a bit quite similar: the same with your elegant temperament, but independent, and taste outstanding. I believe love Roewe people would agree with this view bar!
failures:
The new Mercedes-Benz C Class
Celebrity endorsement: Huang Xiaoming
Huang Xiaoming do see a new C-Class Mercedes-Benz spokesman, I understand the point: the new C-Class is to give younger rich open. However, these young people’s personality in the end What is this? I do not know.
The reason is simple: Huang Xiaoming do have an idol face, but as an actor, he is not good, but the lack of distinctive personality. In addition to handsome, he still has what? Elegant? Vitality? Talent? Wisdom … …
In my opinion, this young man’s personality is too pale. Could it be the new Mercedes-Benz C-class positioning … … pale?
JAC Pinnacle
Celebrity endorsement: Chen Tao-ming
JAC introduced Pinnacle car really can be said to have done everything. Auto show in Guangzhou, the JAC is not only invited to the Miss Congeniality beautiful eye-catching, but also invited to attend the biggest names to help out such as Chen Tao-ming, is nothing less than hard.
However, Chen Tao-ming, and Pinnacle is really good match Mody? Right circle a little understanding of things people know that Chen Tao-ming while performing on a very talented, but but he is arrogant, and often gives people a domineering feeling.
The JAC Pinnacle hundreds of thousands of his early, as a “C-class car” is “the people” is more than “arrogant” enough. I really do not know the endorsement of the meeting point in the end what is … …
