After Hennessey’s huge success with the 2010 HPE700 Chevy Camaro, we’re guessing they were a little regretful of only releasing 24 limited edition vehicles. So as any wise business would do, they’re going to do another limited edition release of the HPE700 Camaro, just this time in convertible form. And yes, only 24 of them...

One of our biggest gripes with so-called ‘street’ drag racing classes are that the cars aren’t really streetable. In the loosest of sense, the rules are geared towards cars that could be put on the street (whether it requires a catalytic converter or full interior or whatever the case is). Nine times out of ten,...

A tractor trailer containing not one, not two, but five Chevy Camaro Convertibles was spied yesterday making its way through Toronto.
