Is There Room In Your Garage For a 720 HP Fireball Camaro?

There is no shortage of special Camaros for we car nuts to pine after. Having driven the previous generation ZL1, that would be my favorite. Some other folks dream of carving up a racetrack and think Z/28. The practical Camaro nut maybe thinks 2SS. But what if you want a Camaro with over 700HP? Nothing on the dealer lot will suffice. Unless your dealer is Eskridge Chevrolet, who just so happens to have two 720 HP Fireball Camaros available and a simple order sheet if you'd like one in another color.

 

As the video shows, the Fireball can run the quarter in under 10 clicks. Not bad, and plenty fast enough to hang with a Hellcat. Eskridge Chevy will even offer you a two-year limited (very limited) warranty on the car. And yes, they are confident that the donor Camaro they start with can handle the extra twist.

Man, that is awesome! I wondered if dealers would offer something of their own like back in the day of Yenko's and such. Would be a nice addition to a collection for those that can afford it.

Hrmmm....according to the title of this post, I was assuming if I made room for this vehicle, it would be given to me...is this not the case?? Did I clean out my garage for nothing???

Before I bought my 10.20 1/4 mile firebird(and that was needing a better cam), another car guy, and someone that builds them, told me "a good race car does not make a good road car".

 

He was right. There is a reason the warranty is so short and limited. If I buy another insane car, it's going to have a full factory warranty.

9.8s..... Wow!!! It amazes me how they can squeeze that much out of a car that runs on today's gasoline. And some say the muscle car era is over. ....... I think not!!!

Not sure if this is technically the correct place to post this...but I just came across a 6.6 duramax camaro. Guy has a youtube video up of a swap he did. New-ish camaro. Looks stock, aside from the billowing black smoke from the tail pipes.

 

FYI....I'll take either. Still have that cleaned out garage I need filled with a badass camaro from somebody!!

The new Camaro isn't a bad car, but I still like the 5th Gen better.
