Motor Trend's 2014 Best Driver's Car is Chevrolet Camaro Z/28

Motor Trend's 2014 Best Driver's Car is Chevrolet Camaro Z/28
BAY CITY, Mich. – When Chevrolet got to work redesigning the Camaro Z/28, it was the automaker's mission to create the most capable, best-handling Camaro in history. Well, that mission was a success because the 2014 Chevy Camaro Z/28 is Motor Trend's 2014 Best Driver's Car!

Only new or significantly revised performance vehicles are considered for the award which requires extensive subjective and objective testing. To determine which vehicle delivered the most engaging behind the wheel experience, Motor Trend conducted testing including digitally instrumented laps at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and high-speed driving up and down a 4.3-mile hill climb on a closed rural highway before coming to the conclusion that the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro is Motor Trend's Best Driver's Car! In fact, the fifth generation Camaro is the first American-brand car to win the honor in the 7 years the award has been around!

Here's what Motor Trend had to say about it:
“The transformation of the fifth-generation Camaro from ‘muscle car that handles pretty well’ to Best Driver’s Car winner is astounding. You feel the superior engineering in how the car responds to inputs both internal and external. From within, the car reacts immediately and precisely to your commands but doesn’t punish your mistakes. From the outside, the Z/28’s suspension attacks bumps and dips with an unbridled passion for keeping the tires on the pavement.”
Not that you needed another reason to make the 2014 Camaro Z/28 your own, but now you do because it has been officially recognized as the 2014 Best Driver's Car!

Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Flowtie

Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Flowtie

BAY CITY, Mich.– When Chevy's team got to work on the 2014 Camaro Z/28, they faced quite the challenge– to make sure it offered even more impressive track performance than its counterparts. But how do you take a vehicle that is already top-of-the-line to the next level? Well, after scrutinizing the performance car lap after lap, the Chevy Camaro Z/28 Flowtie was born!

In a search for ways to improve track performance, some out of the box thinking led to the development of a modified Chevy Bowtie to offer improved aerodynamics. One of the Chevrolet engineers pointed out that the grille placement of the classic Chevy Bowtie was actually displacing air away from the radiator during aerodynamic testing, which was in turn affecting engine cooling. So to improve airflow to the engine, the team came up with the Chevy Camaro Z/28 Flowtie, a modified version of the classic Bowtie, since they agreed removing the Bowtie altogether wasn't a valid option.

The Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Flowtie design features just the chrome bowtie outline, leaving the center of the badge open. Aerodynamic testing revealed that this modification allows three additional cubic meters of air into the engine per minute, resulting in a 2 degree drop in engine coolant and oil temperatures! The 2014 Z/28 is more capable than ever, and the modified bowtie is just one example of how the car will bring improved performance to the track!

If you can't wait to get your hands on one, you won't have to wait long because the Z/28 will be hitting the streets this spring, and we can help hook you up! Hank Graff Chevy is located at 3636 Wilder Road, Bay City, MI 48706.

Chevrolet Camaro Z/28.R Makes Racing Debut

Chevrolet Camaro Z/28.R Makes Racing Debut

BAY CITY, Mich.- A new chapter begins in racing this week as the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28.R makes its racing debut at the IMSA Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge in Daytona! Sharing many similar elements with the 2014 Camaro Z/28, the new Z/28.R will be one of the most production based competitors on the track!

This Friday, the Camaro Z/28 will return to its roots as the new Z/28.R debuts in a 2.5-hour endurance race to kick off the 12-race 2014 season. Staying true to their racing roots, the 2014 Camaro Z/28 and Z/28.R were developed alongside eachother, incorporating many of the same performance elements. This resulted in the 2014 Camaro Z/28 being the most track-capable Camaro ever, and the Z/28.R being the closest to a production-spec race car that you will find! Aside from series-mandated equipment needed for endurance racing, the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28.R makes its racing debut with most of the same specifications as the Z/28, like the same downforce-generating aero package and LS7 7.0L V8 engine.
