Chevrolet Camaro Driving Experiences

It was back in 2006 when Chevrolet announced they were putting together a brand new version of their popular Camaro model. And even though it took another three years for it to hit the production line in 2009, most motoring enthusiasts will agree that it was definitely worth the wait.

This particular Camaro model we offer here on DrivingExperience.com - of which just over 1900 were produced as a special edition in 2010 - is perhaps instantly recognisable to fans of the Transformers series of films as ‘Bumblebee’, one of Optimus Prime’s team of Autobots.

But while we can’t guarantee its transformation into a crime-fighting robot superhero, one thing we can assure you is its turbo-boosted performance out on the track. With a 3.6-litre V6 engine humming on 640 bhp, it can achieve top speeds of 130 mph and accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 5 seconds.

The ‘Bumblebee’ Camaro is unsurprisingly one of our most popular choices for a drive on our Movie Car packages, but you can also book one of our Combined Experience packages where you can drive the Camaro along with other automotive stars of the silver screen - a real box office winner.

This Camaro model has also been produced in several other special editions over the course of its six year production, including a specially customised 2009 model for the popular US talk show host Jay Leno, with the same V6 engine as the standard Camaro, but enhanced with the addition of two Turbonetics T-3 turbochargers.

Such was the popularity of this Camaro following its use in the Transformers film Revenge of the Fallen, that at one point in 2009, dealers were reporting that demand was outstripping availability, with it being so sought after that in some cases it was $5000 above its recommended retail price. Fortunately with DrivingExperience, you can take to the wheel of the Camaro for the day without such a hefty price tag!
