Concerned at the runaway success of Ford's pony / muscle car, the ubiquitous Mustang, General Motors brought the first-generation Camaro to market in September 1966. It was based on a new, rear-wheel drive platform and shared both that and a variety of other major components with the Pontiac Firebird. The 2+2-seater was available as either a two-door Coupe or Convertible and came with a choice of no less than six powerplants, from a 4.1-litre straight-six to a 6.5-litre V8, and three trim and tuning packages - RS, SS and Z28. Like Ford, Chevrolet believed the old adage that 'whatever won on Sunday sold on Monday' and wasted little time in taking to the tracks. Working with Roger Penske, they operated an unofficially factory-backed team, winning the Trans-Am Series outright with Mark Donohue. The Camaro has been developed through six distinct generations with a seven-year hiatus between the fourth and fifth ones. Introduced in 1993, the fourth generation Camaro came as standard with a 3.4 litre V6 engine allied to five-speed manual transmission (though, an automatic gearbox was optional). Faster, better handling and more aerodynamic than its predecessor, the newcomer benefited from the adoption of rack-and-pinion power steering, improved front suspension, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes and several composite body panels.
