Production-ready Lingenfelter LTA Camaro debuts in Vegas

Following the well-received concept version of the Lingenfelter LTA at SEMA all the way back in 2009, the specialist tuning company has finally brought along a production version of the car this year. Surprise... it's a convertible!

Ken Lingenfelter himself says that "overwhelming response after displaying conceptual versions of the LTA at previous SEMA Shows" has forced the company to offer up the real deal. Great news for enthusiasts of retro-themed performance cars, and Camaro fans in general.

Each LTA begins life as a model year 2010-2013 Camaro (including convertibles, obviously) and is then modified completely by Lingenfelter. The company will not be selling pieces of the body kit, for instance, as separate pieces. Lingenfelter will only deliver "...a complete, finished vehicle that's been re-done inside and out."

The LTA will be available in three grades, though the Level 3 LTA seen here would seem to be the one to have. This package includes a V8 engine tuned to produce some 655 horsepower, Brembo brakes, 20-inch "Honeycomb" wheels and a completely custom interior.Continue reading Production-ready Lingenfelter LTA Camaro debuts in Vegas

10 bucks says they as in "GM" makes there own version of the Trans Am in the camaro form....i will be greatly disappointed.....or the same car but a "Chevrolet Trans Am"......that just looks and sounds nasty......and i bet that car will be pricey as hell to...

[RedFenix_68]

that is just so sad to see that other companies are willing to use the name "Trans Am" to give it back to life...but "GM" the maker of the one and true Trans Am cannot even give this to its people....or fans...so sad...but, i am glad they killed the TA with the 4th gens....the value on them will go up...where as the price on older camaros will go down because of the newer 5th gen camaros

"EL T/A" lmfao! Yeah that about sums it up!

They'll make a Z28 before they ever consider making a TransAm 5th gen.

I'm confused. You're the one who initially said that you bet $10 GM makes a TransAm version...

Maybe I'm reading it incorrectly ??

no no you are reading correctly, i was kidding about the trans am, of course gm wont make another one. and you would be absolutely correct about chevy making a z28 before a trans am....that would just be weird and the trans am and camaro on the chevy line would be the exact same car fighting one another.....who knows though maybe it could work...just be weird seeing a chevy emblem on a trans am where a pontiac symbol should be....sorry if i left you in a ball of confuission

No worries... The T/A moniker is dead, and unless another company comes in and buys the rights to Pontiac, it'll never come back. As far as Chevy making a look a like with a bowtie on it? Highly unlikely, but not completely out of the realm of possibility.

they needed to get rid of bob lutz when they had the chance.....that guy is a nimrod and really sent that company spiraling....im surprised they even looked at the camaro as a possibility for the future...fuck lutz

I wonder how much wind resistance that car has at high speeds....my goodness....it's a brick wall.
