2011 Camaro SS Revealed In and Out at Indy Bash

The folks over at the Camaro5 are having a blast today with the first public appearance of the 2011 Chevrolet Camaro SS at the 2008 Indy Bash event. And while we’ve seen studio shots of the SS, this is the first time we’re seeing live pictures of both the interior and exterior of the flagship Camaro that’s powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine generating 422 HP when combined with a 6-speed manual gearbox and 400 HP when matted to a 6-speed automatic. We would like to see the Camaro SS in person, however our first impression of the interior is that the two-tone color scheme with the shiny red panels does look a bit tacky. Hit the jump for the full image gallery and tell us what you think.
