AutoInformed’s current favorites are the 323-horsepower V6 LS coupe or LT coupe and convertible.
The fifth-generation Camaro has been a success for Chevrolet since it went on sale in August 2009, and now in its last year of production is on track to deliver more than 500,000 in sales. Camaro passed Mustang in 2010, to become America’s best-selling performance car – a title Camaro has retained for five consecutive years.
The Camaro has helped Chevrolet with 63% of retail buyers new to GM.
In 2014, Camaro total sales increased 7.1% for its second-best year of sales since its introduction. For the first two months of 2015, total sales are up 3.6% compared to 2014.
AutoInformed’s current favorite is the 323-horsepower V6-powered LS coupe or LT coupe and convertible – including the 2LS with an EPA-rated 30 mpg on the highway.
About Ken Zino
Ken Zino, editor and publisher of AutoInformed, is a versatile auto industry participant with global experience spanning decades in print and broadcast journalism, as well as social media. He has automobile testing, marketing, public relations and communications experience. He is past president of The International Motor Press Assn, the Detroit Press Club, founding member and first President of the Automotive Press Assn. He is a member of APA, IMPA and the Midwest Automotive Press Assn.
He also brings an historical perspective while citing their contemporary relevance of the work of legendary auto writers such as Ken Purdy, Jim Dunne or Jerry Flint, or writers such as Red Smith, Mark Twain, Thomas Jefferson – all to bring perspective to a chaotic automotive universe.
Above all, decades after he first drove a car, Zino still revels in the sound of the exhaust as the throttle is blipped during a downshift and the driver’s rush that occurs when the entry, apex and exit points of a turn are smoothly and swiftly crossed. It’s the beginning of a perfect lap.
AutoInformed has an editorial philosophy that loves transportation machines of all kinds while promoting critical thinking about the future use of cars and trucks.
Zino builds AutoInformed from his background in automotive journalism starting at Hearst Publishing in New York City on Motor and MotorTech Magazines and car testing where he reviewed hundreds of vehicles in his decade-long stint as the Detroit Bureau Chief of Road & Track magazine. Zino has also worked in Europe, and Asia – now the largest automotive market in the world with China at its center.
