Introduction

Arriving four years late to the pony car party, the 1967 Chevrolet Camaro was rushed into production after Ford’s stunning success with the original Mustang. Now, 40 years later, history repeats itself. With nearly 200,000 Ford Mustangs sold after a 2005 retro redesign took the icon back to its 1960s roots, Chevrolet can no longer afford to ignore the sporty rear-drive coupe segment. Since initially taunting bowtie loyalists and pony car fans alike since its introduction at the 2006 North American International Auto Show, the wait is finally over, and the first official pics of the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro have finally been released, so what better time to get a refresher courser of the legendary pony cars history.
