The 2010 Chevy Camaro is scheduled for a Spring 2009 release, and the days on the calendar keep inching closer. Dealers have been accepting pre-orders since October 2008, so if you’ve been jonesing for some old-school muscle, you had better place an order soon.

A 6-Speed manual and optional TAPshift automatic transmission is available on all 2010 Camaro models. While we’d like to see some concrete data, we’re happy to see a projected 300 hp DOHC V6 and the preferred 400 hp V8. What we know for sure is that the Camaro will sport a 4.5-link independent rear suspension, six airbags and a standard (1 Year) OnStar Safe & Sound plan.

10 colors, USB connectivity, Bluetooth wireless technology, and six airbags make the 2010 Camaro an attractive proposition. Starting at $22,995, we’re sold.
