An editor over at Cars.com , driving between Chicago and Detroit, noticed a bright blue 2010 Chevy Camaro RS just hanging out at a gas station outside of the Motor City. We're assuming the manufacturer-plated car is probably either an early pre-production model or from GM's captive test fleet. Either that or a cash-strapped GM decided to save money by not advertising the car's release and there are a bunch of them sitting at Chevy dealerships where they'll likely never be discovered. Probably not. [ Kicking Tires ]

In case you haven't seen the 2010 Chevy Camaro enough yet, GM is bringing four concept Camaros to SEMA this week, some of them actually interesting. The lineup includes the Camaro LS7 Concept (guess what that one's got under the hood), Camaro Dale Earnhardt Jr. Concept (yeah, we figured), Camaro Black Concept and the Camaro GS Racecar Concept, along with a GM Performance Parts car loaded to the gills with stuff you can buy for your Camaro — the one that won't be in your garage until at least next year. Let's take a closer look at this bevy of concepts for the official car of this year's SEMA show plus all the accessories. Hit the jump for all the details after perusing the galleries below. galleryPost('camarols7sema', 6, 'The Camaro LS7 Concept'); galleryPost('gsconceptsema', 3, 'Camaro GS Racecar Concept'); galleryPost('camaroblacksema', 6, 'The Camaro Black Concept'); galleryPost('camarodalesema', 6, 'The...

Chevy has released a single teaser-style image of their 2008 SEMA show-bound Camaro Black, described only as "a dark and mysterious interpreta." We're pretty sure they meant "interpretation" but ran into character limitations in their imaging software. Regardless, the Camaro Black show car actually looks to be a gunmetal gray based on the photo and appears decked out with a sinister-looking body kit and the requisite SEMA monster alloy wheels shod in low-profile rubber. The red glow from the headlights may also indicate some sort of LED illumination kit, but what you see is all we know at this point; we'll either get a constant dribble of teasers a-la 2010 Mustang or just bring you the goods from the Vegas show floor in two weeks. galleryPost('camaroblacksema', 1, 'Camaro Black Is A Dark And Mysterious Interpreta');

Since the 2010 Chevy Camaro is the official vehicle of the 2008 SEMA show , GM has been hard at work readying special cars to show off new goodies from GM Performance Parts. Working with the GM Design Team on some "interesting twists," the builds of the hopped-up Camaros have been chronicled in these new teaser videos . We're not sure if the SEMA cars will be anything like Bumblebee's new look or the red work in progress we've seen before, but at least they won't be the standard Camaro that we've all seen plenty of already. Video after the jump. galleryPost('2010ChevyCamaroKitSpy', 3, 'Camaro Body Kit'); [ YouTube ]

Looks like the crew of Transformers 2 was caught on-set in Arizona at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base along with a couple of the more robotic cast members — albeit while in their vehicle mode get-ups. Based on the plates, it looks like we're also able to put a name to the bot who will be played by the Chevy Beat : Skids. Despite our best efforts, we couldn't decipher the plate on the Chevy Trax , but that's okay because the upgraded Chevy Camaro will still be Bumblebee, and that's the only one we really care about anyway.

All you Camaro fanboys waiting to plan the option boxes you'll be checking when the car shows up in showrooms this spring, rejoice. Someone on the forums has leaked a list of standard and optional features available on all Camaro trim lines. From the looks of things, a "base" Camaro is a bit of a misnomer, as even the LS will get XM, Stabilitrak, 6-speaker audio and enough airbags to float the Titanic. Of course, the magic code is "1SS" which nets you the 6.2-liter V8 and, you know, a bunch of other unimportant stuff. Full breakdown after the jump. galleryPost('camarossprod', 6, 'The Magic of 1SS'); LS Standard Equipment - 3.6L SIDI V6 engine - Dual exhaust - 18-inch steel wheels - Onstar Safe & Sound - XM radio - Stabilitrak - 6 air bags: front, side and curtain - 6-speaker base audio system Optional Equipment - Floor mats 1LT Standard Equipment (includes or replaces LS equipment) - 18-inch aluminum Wheels - Fog lights - Driver Information Center...

We're already the first to have shown you Bumblebee's newly tarted-up aftermarket look (and again showing off that very newish nose and with Shia ), and now we're getting some better shots of his muscularly-modded bod sitting on the Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen set at White Sands AFB. We already know the look isn't any production trim level Chevy will be offering on the new Chevy Camaro, and thank goodness because it's certainly "special" looking. And — umm — that's really all there is to say about that. If you're interested, Transformers Live has some more galleries of some of the other vehicles (Optimus Prime, Ratchet and Ironhide) over there . galleryPost('BeeTF2Camaro', 6, 'Bumblebee Tuna Casserole');

While we're excited for the 2010 Chevy Camaro SS , the reveal yesterday was rather undramatic, taking place at an event held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway called the 2008 IndyBash. Yeah, and as expected, it was filled with all sorts of surprises — like — um, OK, so there weren't any surprises. What should we expect from the reveal of the "SS" version of what may quite possibly be the most over-exposed and vehicle in the history of the automobile? Not much, wethinks. So, on that level, the reveal met expectations. But, if you're interested in seeing the car up close — again — for the umpteenth time — check out the gallery below. Many thanks to the folks at the Camaro5 forum for snapping all of them for your viewing pleasure. galleryPost('CamaroSSIndy', 12, 'Chevy Camaro SS Revealed At Indy'); [Photo Credit: Camaro5 ]

newVideoPlayer("/CamaroSSVetteZR1.flv", 494, 300,""); This is the first time we've seen both the 2010 Camaro SS and the 2009 Corvette ZR1 sharing track time, though the video leaves us a bit confused. Yes, the two look great together, and the V8 soundtrack isn't too bad either...except we only get to hear each of the cars sing solo. We were expecting to hear a roaring duet of muscle, but the audio has suspiciously been cut from those scenes. And, is it just us, or have some portions of the video been blatantly sped up?

One of the more intriguing features of the concept version of the new Chevy Camaro 's interior was the "torque meter" on the four-gauge instrument cluster. Unfortunately, according to Popular Mechanics and now confirmed in a photo taken by Xeper, a forum fan-boy over at GMInsideNews , it's a feature that won't be making it from concept to 2010 Chevy Camaro production accessory. Popular Mechanics ' Ben Stewart made the claim first in his review of the pre-production Camaro concept last month: "The optional console mount gauges on Camaros we've seen before have included a "torque meter." This, we thought, was an odd choice for this valuable real estate. Well, apparently the engineers thought so too. Both prototypes had transmission temperature gauges in place of the torque meter. [Engineering Program Manager Anthony] McCormack says the torque meter is history." We can see from the shot up top the four gauges in the cluster are now oil pressure...

That's right folks —never mind the ad supplement , or the leaked pictures — now the first official press photo — or press rendering, we guess — of the new Chevrolet Camaro SS was just revealed on GM's Media site. We can't seem to find any other press release or official documentation accompanying it. But whatevs, we're just pleased as punch Chevy finally showed us what the new up-powered Camaro with the 6.2-liter V8 engine . Well, now that the strip tease is finally over, we guess we can all now sleep easy. Click here for the high-resolution picture.

Getting the first photo of all three of Detroit's new muscle cars was no easy task — taking time, hard work and more than a little luck. Want to see what transpired? The folks from Garage419 showed up to create the above "behind the scenes" video showing just how it was done. We'd also like to point out while the PR folks on the ground weren't very happy with us showing up with the competition, the GM and Chevy brand PR teams back in Detroit found the stunt humorous and took it in good stride. We give them a lot of credit for doing so. And why not? It ended up making it all across the auto enthusiast online world, with even Motor Trend picking up on the story — although they seem a little bit baffled by how it all happened . But whatever. Enough words, hit the play button above! ( Hat tip to Craig Lieberman, Garage419 and Ned! ) galleryPost('MuscleCarWarSanDiego2', 6, 'The Muscle Car Wars Are On!');

We're expecting official images of the ever-pending 2010 Chevy Camaro SS any day now, but the various photo shoots ahead of that day have yielded at least one gallery of good ones. An AutoInsane reader managed to get into a shoot and take some really great photos of the latest Chevy super sport. As we saw when Fergie showed off the Camaro SS , it looks a lot like the concept but with some real rearview mirrors and actual badging. galleryPost('camarossprod', 6, 'Unofficial Camaro SS Pictures'); [More at: AutoInsane ]
