CARBARN | Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 Convertible (2013) | Just last month, Chevy released some specs for its ZL1 Camaro coupe Beastly, Including jaw-dropping output figures of 580 hp and 556 lb-ft of torque from its supercharged 6.2-liter LSA V-8. The Camaro SS ragtop weighs nearly 270 pounds more than the SS coupe, and we expect a similar discrepancy Between the ZL1 duo courtesy of this version's additional structural bracing.
The ZL1 Convertible will debut at the upcoming LA auto show before arriving at Chevrolet dealerships in late 2012; the coupe goes on sale early in the year. With Ford already prepping a 600-plus-horse GT500 coupe-a development we first reported last March, expect the Blue Oval to announce a similar GT500 convertible to face off with the ZL1.
