The Chevrolet Camaro is a 2-door sports car/muscle car/pony car produced and manufactured by the American car company Chevrolet, a division of General Motors, from 1967 to 2002 and from 2009 to the present. It has undergone many changes in its life, starting off a bit confused as to what it was other than GM's answer to the Ford Mustang during the 1st generation, but gaining an identity by 1970 as a performance sports car accessible to the average person during the second generation. Its reputation as an "affordable sports car" was further solidified in the 3rd and 4th generations with its styling getting more and more sporty and aerodynamic until it was discontinued in 2002. It was then revived in 2009, albeit as a completely different car, no longer emphasizing "affordable performance", with its much heftier price tag, heavy chassis, and disregard for aerodynamics and instead returning to its roots as GM's slightly confused answer to the Ford Mustang.

At least 1 Chevrolet Camaro has been featured in every Gran Turismo game to date.

Trivia

  • The Camaro is a very iconic vehicle, as it has appeared in numerous video games, movies, music videos and TV shows, though until recently has often been overshadowed by its corporate cousin, the Pontiac Firebird. Out of the many notable appearances in the media, Gran Turismo is one of them.
