New Euro-Spec Chevrolet Camaro Coupe and Convertible go on Sale in the UK [193 Photos]

British fans of Detroit muscle will be happy to know that the Euro-spec Camaro Coupe and Convertible models have arrived in Chevrolet showrooms.

While the Camaro has been fully homologated for Europe, the bad news for UK buyers is that the Chevrolet will not offer right-hand drive models.

Both body styles are offered only with a 6.2-liter V8 and the choice of 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions with on-the-road prices for the coupe starting at £35,025 (US$54,450/€43,450) and for the convertible at £40,025.

There’s also the optional 45th Anniversary packages that come at an additional £1,500 each including VAT.

Camaros equipped with the 6-speed manual feature an LS3 6.2-liter V8 rated at 426hp (432PS) and 415 lb-ft (563Nm), allowing for a 0-62mph (100km/h) sprint time of 5.2 seconds for the coupe 5.4 seconds for the convertible.

The automatic transmission models are mated to an L99 6.2-litre V8 engine that makes 399hp (405PS) and 410 lb-ft (556Nm), with the coupe covering the 0-62mph (100km/h) in 5.4 seconds and the convertible in 5.6 seconds.

Power is transferred to the road through 20-inch alloy wheels shod in Pirelli P-Zero tyres.

The European specification model has some minor differences over its North American counterpart.
