An alert member of Modern Camaro posted about what looks like some GM product placement in the hit FOX TV show 'Glee' last night. While he claims his wife was the one watching the show, we won't hold it against him. During one scene, there is a blue Camaro convertible with black wheels in the background as clear as day. Looks like the Grabber Blue found on the current Ford Mustang. Personally, I think the car looks great in that color, then again so does the Mustang.
Is this car a GM prototype? Aftermarket? Who knows, but as this much anticipated car gets closer to production, I expect more promotion like this from GM. Nothing like working to make a great thing better!
Here are some stills from the show.
Camaro GT4 debuts at Nürburgring
A fine example of the Chevrolet Camaro on the track! We found this posted on ModernCamaro.com this week.
Early this year, the successful Dutch motorsport entrepreneur decided to bring the Chevrolet Camaro to GT4 regulations, built by Riley Motorsport Technologies in Mooresville, North Carolina, to Europe. Soon after that, Verschuur announced his intention to enter two Camaros under the banner of his own team for the HTC Dutch GT4 Championship, the highest motor racing category in The Netherlands. The fact that it took longer than planned for the cars to make their race debut is also the result of Verschuur’s philosophy, which already helped him score many victories, among others in the Le Mans 24 Hours and various European Renault one-make competitions. “There is no use racing the car when it doesn’t fully suit our requirements. First, we wanted to adapt the Camaro to European standards, and only go racing when we were fully satisfied”, Verschuur explained.

Camaro convertible spotted in Canada
An alert member of GMInsideNews.com, Jon04CTS-V, saw a car hauler packed with 2011 Camaro convertibles on the 401. He was quick enough to snap a few pics to share with us on the web. We have all seen the images from Australia and even a Detroit area convertible wanna be, but these cars are legit!
More than likely captured test fleet cars? Cars for the media review? Who knows.

These privately-funded facilities include the Center for the Intrepid, a state-of-the-art physical rehabilitation facility at the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas that provides those with severe extremity injuries, severe burns and amputees the best opportunity to regain their ability to live and work productively; and the National Intrepid Center of Excellence (NICoE) in Bethesda, Maryland, a $65 million, 72,000 sq. ft., advanced center dedicated to the diagnosis and clinical care of service members suffering from traumatic brain injury (TBI), post traumatic stress (PTS) and other complex psychological health issues.
