View 5 Photos
Have you ever wanted to choose the name for a new car? Chevrolet is giving its fans that chance with the Camaro SS Special Edition in new Emerald Green Metallic paint that's debuting at the SEMA Show in November. The limited model then goes on sale in the first quarter of 2015 wearing the winning moniker.

When sales do begin, the special edition will be offered as a coupe or convertible in 2SS trim and a choice of either a six-speed manual with a 6.2-liter V8 rated at 426 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque or a six-speed automatic with 400 hp and 410 pound-feet of twist.

To set the edition off as something a little different in addition to its Emerald Green paint, it'll get a ground effects package, the rear spoiler from the ZL1, 21-inch Chrome Dusk wheels and Cyber Gray rally stripes down the hood and trunk. The RS Appearance Package with high-intensity discharge headlights will also be standard equipment. For the interior, customers will be nestled in black upholstery and Graphite Silver trim with a black top for convertibles.

If all of that fails to impress potential buyers, a sunroof, dual-mode exhaust, navigation and a short-throw shifter will be optional, as well.

Chevy is taking suggestions for the name now through the Camaro's Facebook page and on Twitter at the @Chevrolet account by using the hashtag #NameThatCamaro. Scroll down to read the company's full announcement for the SEMA Camaro.

Chevrolet will announce the name next month, when the vehicle publicly debuts at the SEMA Show, the world's largest trade show of automotive personalization and performance.

"Chevrolet has made a tradition of offering special-edition models each spring, but this is the first time we've turned to the community of Camaro fans to name it," said Todd Christensen, Camaro marketing manager. "We can't think of a better way to involve the owners and enthusiasts who have made it the segment's best-selling sports car for four years running."

The special-edition Camaro SS will be offered in coupe and convertible models with 2SS trim. In addition to the exclusive Emerald Green Metallic exterior, the package includes:

RS Appearance Package, including high-intensity discharge headlamps, light-emitting diode, or LED, taillamps, RS-specific front upper grille, body-color roof moldings and body-color antenna

Performance comes from a 6.2L V-8 rated at 426 horsepower (318 kW) and 420 lb-ft (569 Nm) in models with the standard six-speed manual transmission, and 400 horsepower (298 kW) and 410 lb-ft (556 Nm) for models equipped with the available six-speed automatic transmission.
