Updated classics

When you hear the word Camaro one word comes to mind: Classic. This vehicular staple in muscle cars has proven itself over the years as being the beacon of American ingenuity. If you thought the Camaro was bad when it first hit the streets, just wait until you see what the modern versions bring to the blacktop. Highlights of the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 Coupe include electrically assisted steering and the ability to hit 60 mph in four seconds flat.

If you check out 2013 Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE, you’ll be blown away by its a six-speed manual transmission and a specially designed understeer. Both matter for precise handling and super speed, making your trips to the grocery store a little quicker.

Luxury stuff

If luxury vehicles are more your type, you’ll be blown away at the auto show’s lineup of new Jaguars. Newer models feature a 510 hp, supercharged 5-liter V8 engine under the hood, and a veritable laundry list of luxury features throughout. Advanced features in certain models include heated exterior mirrors, front and rear parking aids, rain-sensing windshield wipers and windshield wipers on the headlights.

More luxury comes in the form of interior mood lighting, ventilated front seats that heat up or help you cool down, and a killer media system that includes HD radio, MP3 compatibility and a navigation system with DVD mapping. Getting around Phoenix and checking out a Diamondbacks game or an art exhibit just got a little more stylish.
