This morning I stepped on this 1968 Camaro Hot Wheels on the way to the coffee maker. It hurt, but now I have a few ideas on how to improve our 2010 Camaro SS. What do you think? Blower? Zoomies? Green metal flake? I think we'll pass on the black stripe.

Please don't do anything stupid to the car, the Camaro looks great just as it is... Maybe a nicer set of wheels but that's about it.

Side pipes and a fake GMC 6/71 blower.

Upgrade the suspension (adjustable coils!) and lower the car another 2 or 3 inches.
Change the brake and throttle pedals to be closer together to allow Heel-Toe shifting.
Upgrade the Clutch and transmission to handle a stage 2 or 3 super charger. Change the gear ratios to be shorter.
Add structural stability with sway bars.
After you burn the rubber off the stock tires, replace them with slicks.
Take it to a drag strip and murder everyone!

I think it would be fun to see what you could do with it. There are plenty of other sites that one could see/read 'stock' reports. cheers.

You guys need to park the 2010 next to a '67 and post some photos. That Hotwheels reminds me why I prefer the '67.

Straight pipes and grow a mullet.

Forget the exterior. If you're really going for the Camaro experience, and since you all seem to hate the steering wheel anyway, why don't you replace it with one of those ones that's made out of chain links?

Man the hotwheels one looks better than the '10.

I like DCuerpoJr's idea but I would take nothing less than a stage 3 supercharger.

There are a thousand things you could do but none of them will make this car any less of a ricer. You guys should just blow it up.

Headers, cherry bombs, and a mullet.

Take off the hood, Raise it about 4 inches and put in 22' spinning rims/wheels, paint it purple with sparkles, definately blower, and grind the muffler down. Make sure whoever drives it wears a fur coat and huge sunglasses.
