2012 Chevrolet Camaro Caught Wearing LED Tails and Fatty-Bo-Batty Side Mirrors

We've already shown you video of the 2012 Camaro Z/28 doing its thing on the N�rburgring, and now there are more spy pictures of the facelifted model it could be based on. Other than the appropriately modern-looking LED taillights [voice your thoughts below], the updated version of Chevy's own pony car is believed to also benefit significantly from a yet unseen refreshed interior.

Besides the rear lights and diffuser-mounted reflectors, the major update is a pair of the most obtuse, minivan-ish side mirrors ever (EVER). Hopefully those are just for testing / Euro market purposes, but that's probably not the case.

Other improvements for the 2012 model year should include engine/suspension tweaks as well as more special editions (this competes with the Mustang, after all).

2012 Camaro Z28 with Massive Hood Bulge Spied in California

A pair of lightly camouflaged Camaros believed to be prototype versions of the much-delayed super-duper Z28 model were spied among a convoy of pony cars on the streets of Coronado in California by a forum member. Albeit most of the front end of the test cars was covered to keep prying eyes from seeing the details, it's easy to make out the large hood bulge, under which, you should find GM's 6.2-liter supercharged V8 that produces 556HP in the Cadillac CTS-V.

SPIED: 2012 Chevy Camaro Z28 with 6.2-liter Supercharged V8

Spy photographers have snagged a lightly camouflaged Camaro that is believed to be the long-rumored Z28 model packing the same 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine found in the Corvette ZR1 and Cadillac CTS-V models. And how do we know this, you may ask? Well, GM's engineers were kind enough to leave a sticker on the prototype's dashboard that read "2012 Chevrolet Camaro, 6.2L SC V8, 6AT".

2012 Chevrolet Aveo Sedan and Hatchback: Official Design Patents

What you see here are official design patent drawings of the all-new 2012 Chevrolet Aveo four-door sedan and five-door hatchback models, filed by General Motors. The next generation of GM's Ford Fiesta rival was teased in concept form with the sporty Aveo RS hatchback study at 2010 Detroit Auto Show in January while shortly after we also got a sneak peak of the sedan variant through some leaked illustrations.

The drawings of the five-door model suggest that the production version follows pretty closely to the RS concept minus of course some snazzy details like the shaved door handles, big alloy wheels and the more pronounced side sills that made the concept model really stand out.

Patent Drawings Reveal New Chevrolet Pickup Truck?

This just in from the patent office; General Motors has filed these drawings of an unnamed Chevrolet single-cab pickup truck with a Cruze-like split-grille. We're not sure what to make of it since there's no additional information on the filing, but there's a chance it might be a successor to the South American market Chevrolet S10 compact pickup truck.

Another -though less likely- guess is that it's a replacement for the North American Chevrolet Colorado. Of course, we could be wrong in both cases. Either way, follow the break to check out the rest of the drawings and tell us what you think in the comments section.

A group of Chevy [Chevrolet if you work for GM] Camaro Convertibles were caught with their tops up about 2 hours north of Toronto in Canada by a member of the Camaro5 forums.

For now, there's not much to say about the Convertible other than it gets a cloth top - most likely electrically operated, and the same re-rated for the 2011MY 312HP 3.6-liter V6 and 426HP 6.2-liter V8 engine options as the coupe variant.
