Camaro SLP ZL Series, only 550 horsepower

Published on January 19, 2010 in News by The Car Guide

SLP announces the availability of its Limited Edition ZL® Series 550 Horsepower and 575 Horsepower 2010 Supercharged Camaros from Chevy dealerships across Canada.

Produced by SLP Performance Parts, Inc. and only available at Chevy dealerships throughout the U.S. and Canada, SLP’s Supercharged Camaro offers Supercar performance, handling and braking with the head-turning appeal that enthusiasts have been long awaiting.

Following in the footsteps of the 40,000+ Camaro SS specialty vehicles SLP built for GM and its dealers from 1996 to 2002 is a daunting challenge. At $22,995 (plus the base price of the Camaro SS), one test drive will convince skeptics that SLP’s Supercharged Camaro offers the best performance value of any high performance, limited edition, production car available today.

Based on the 2010 Camaro SS, only 250 sequentially numbered ZL550 automatic transmission and 250 ZL575 manual transmission cars will be built. Available in any factory color, the Supercharged Camaro’s performance and curb appeal are enhanced by a positive displacement supercharger (similar to the one GM includes with the new ZR-1 Corvette) and highlighted by SLP’s aggressively styled composite hood with functional scoop (design patent pending).

To compliment the Supercharged Camaro’s aggressive front-end appearance, the new body-color rear deck lid spoiler’s distinctive styling changes continue that theme. Helping to transfer the Supercharged Camaro’s power to the pavement are the factory supplied 20” Pirelli P Zero P240/40ZR20 tires with SLP’s light weight ZL Red Line 20” x 9” alloy wheels on the rear and factory 20” Pirelli P Zero P245/45ZR20 tires and SLP’s 20” x 8” alloy wheels on the front.

Throughout SLP’s Supercharged Camaro’s development process, our objective was to engineer the very highest quality performance, handling and braking improvements that would provide the performance enthusiast with a well balanced package. Not only will our Supercharged Camaros outperform the competition, they’re built to ensure long-term satisfaction and are covered by SLP’s 3 year/60,000 kilometer warranty.

Considering the significant horsepower increase, we’re offering two Brembo brake upgrades:

• The first is Brembo’s Sport Disc Package which includes four new front and rear drilled discs. They provide improved pad bite and more efficient out-gassing of the brake pads, resulting in improved braking efficiency and reduced fade.

• The second option is Brembo’s GT Front Brake Package, which includes 6 piston mono bloc calipers with two-piece 15” front discs that provide increased thermal capacity, increased pad area and lower operating temperatures. With the addition of this option, SLP increases the PCM Top Speed Limiter from 155 mph to 190 mph.

Based on Motor Week’s road test of our ZL575 (see it on our website www.slpcamaro.com) that recently aired on The Speed Channel throughout the US and Canada, our car recorded a 3.8 second 0-60 mph time and 11.8 seconds @121 MPH 1/4 mile times.

Every ZL Supercharged Camaro begins life as a 2010 Camaro SS. Since the order bank opened in mid-October, nearly 200 orders have been placed in the U.S and over 40 cars delivered with more hitting the pavement every week. Once the car is ordered from the Chevrolet dealer, as soon as it’s available the vehicle must be shipped to SLP’s Toms River, NJ production facility. There, vehicles are carefully assembled, dyno-tested and then shipped back to the ordering Chevy dealership.
