Chevrolet’s hero car, the Camaro, is headed to right-hand-driven markets like Japan, Australia, UK and South Africa. This is according to General Motors, makers of the car. Unfortunately for fans of the other hero car from the same garage, the Corvette, will not be getting their right of way, so to speak, as Corvette is only limited to LHD manufacturing processes.
WCF has on a number of occasions, spotted this special retro-remake testing at several spots around the world. In fact, we’ve even had the chance to pilot one at a track outside of Miami soon after it was unveiled at Detroit for the first time. Although never allowed to exceed 50km/h /31mph at the track - no thanks to one 6ft6 hunk of a military-type whose job it was to sit right next to the drivers and just stare – it felt exciting driving a future icon so early in its life. Anyway, it was jolly good for about a minute and a half.

American muscle mirrored for markets abroad? Leave it to Americans to sell out their own history.

How dare the Ameircans try to make money abroad? Ummmm, how about GM not make a RHD vehicle that has limited appeal? The rest of the world is not lusting after inefficient V8 gas guzzlers. Doesn't matter how many Americans like them, the rest of theworld has higher build quality and efficiency standards.
