Hear the 2014 Camaro Z/28 Flex its Muscles

In a century when engines tend to get smaller and smaller as far as displacement is concerned, the 2014 Camaro Z/28 came to the Jacob Javits Convention Center with a 7.0-liter LS7 V8 powerplant, making the Camaro SS look rather small.

We don't know about you, but we love the way all American V8s sound like and fortunately Chevy has released a video sample featuring the Camaro Z/28 flexing its 500+ horsepower. We don't know the exact amount of power this road racing-built machine will sport in the end, but that engine sounds mean and mesmerizing at same time.

"As the ultimate track-capable Camaro, this car restores the mission of the original Z/28, and serves as a testament to the expertise of Chevrolet as the best-selling brand of performance cars,” said Mark Reuss, president, GM North America. “The build sheet is the wish list of any racer: lightweight, high-revving, dry-sump LS7 engine; carbon-ceramic brakes; integrated coolers for track use; true aerodynamic downforce, and a significant reduction in curb weight. This car could only come from Chevrolet, and could only be called the Z/28."

We really couldn't agree more. Now turn up that volume and hit play!
