Another great day of FANTASTIC pictures of FANTASTIC cars at Las Vegas’ SEMA show! LOTS of Mustangs, some exotics cars, LOTS of Camaros and some pretty car models, too! Enjoy!

As usual, each picture is available larger (1000×667) just by clicking on the smaller picture.

This is the Vaugh Gittin Jr. All Carbon Fiber Drift Mustang:

So SEMA is well under way, and boy are the cars HOT and the news FLYING!!! New Parts, New Customizations, News every hour (it feels like, anyway!). Part one of our SEMA coverage from Las Vegas is going to be cars on the OUTSIDE… If you’re familiar with the Specialty Equipment Market Association convention in Las Vegas at all, you’ve heard that the show on the OUTSIDE is almost as hot as the show on the INSIDE (no desert heat pun intended… it’s November and every day is a balmy and breezy 85 degrees).

So here are the pictures, every one is click-able for larger images…

Chevrolet Announces the 2010 Camaro TRANSFORMERS Special Edition

DETROIT - Fans of the new Camaro and the blockbuster TRANSFORMERS movies can now combine their love of the car and the films with the Chevrolet Camaro TRANSFORMERS Special Edition announced today at Comic-Con in San Diego.

more about this tasty special edition after the jump! LOTS OF PICTURES AND EVEN A DESKTOP WALLPAPER! (more…)

Got a friendly email today regarding upcoming performance parts for the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro V6 and SS from BBK Performance. They’ll soon be offering some interesting upgrades to the newest entrant to the muscle car wars. In order to make the Camaro breath easier (and give more horsepower to the wheels as a result), they are currently testing various lengths of headers and pipes that will add even more horses. There will be direct bolt-on shorty and long tube headers in chrome, ceramic, and stainless steel in both 1 3/4″ and 1-7/8″ diameters. The full-length (more…)

Three quick items today as I settle in after vacation, all camaro related:

Word on the ‘net is that GM will soon be adding a couple of new colors to the 2010 Camaro’s available pallet.

Who knows what Opel Green is anyway?

In addition to shades of reds, blues, and grays, they’ll be adding Opel Green (a sly nod to their new owners, perhaps? It’s supposed to be a darker green, as in the color of money?) Synergy Green (apolitically correct color name, as GM execs are truly hoping that corporate synergy will mean that they’ll be left alone. Supposedly a lighter shade of green) and <GASP!> WHITE!
These additional colors are sure to guarantee dominance of sales of Camaros over Mustangs for years to come. No color chips or examples of what the car will look like, since this is all still in the rumor stage.
(end sarcasm)

By the way, be sure to check if your wonderful V8 camaro has been named in this product recall. Evidently, the positive battery cable can rub against the motor mount and eventually short out the starter causing the vehicle to not be able to start or re-start, perhaps go dead while driving, and even possibly cause an engine fire! If your camaro is one of those recalled, contact your local GM dealer, do NOT drive the car. The dealer may decide to flatbed it to their shop. I partularly liked the picture GM included with the person filing down the motor mount with a hand file(see below).

voobah voobah voobah...

Another news item that came across my desk is that the 2010 Camaro has been confirmed to be headed to Europe by two GM European heads. Jurgen Keller, general manager at the Chevrolet Germany division confirmed the overall decision Germany’s “Auto Motor und Sport” magazine . As I said, this is confirmed, not just a rumor, but no actual availability dates have been released yet, nor for which areas of Europe they can be found first. Britain’s “Autocar Magazine” quotes Wayne Brannon, chief executive of Chevrolet Europe, as saying the U.K. will get a right-hand-drive Camaro in early 2010. About 1,000 hardtops, and 1,000 CONVERTIBLES. Autocar said the U.K. edition of the Camaro likely will be priced above the Vauxhall VXR8, which starts at just under $70,000.

So we’ve been putting the design of the new “Brothers Performance” T-shirt together this week. Brother’s has a newly revised logo, and we’re on a push to highlight our new website as well as highlight the other vehicles we support here. As these things go, there’s tweak after tweak as different eyes look over the design. This morning we were looking at two different versions of the design with small differences between them, and one of us (I honestly don’t recall who it was) suggested we have a contest online to spot the differences between the two.

So here ya’ go. Click on the picture for the 1024 pixel wide one.

click the picture for a larger version to spot the 6 differences~

There are SIX differences. From the “Oh, I should have seen that, it’s so obvious!” to the “what the heck?”

The first person who email us the correct six differences gets a $200 BBK gift certificate redeemable only at Brothers Performance and the new T-Shirt when it comes out!

The next 20 runner-ups will get the free T-shirt!

email your detail entry to:
contest@brothersperformance.com

Winners will be announced on July 3, 2009!

Stay tuned…. In the meantime submit your car to our gallery to show off what you got!
