CDC (Classic Design Concepts) are a well respected tuning and performance parts company based in Michigan. CDC specialise in creating go-faster bits for the latest generation of American muscle cars. Their last full-vehicle creation was the Group 2 Widebody Dodge Challenger from 2009.
When the 5th generation Chevrolet Camaro appeared, there were a huge number of Pontiac fans who sat patiently waiting for the next generation Firebird to arrive. Then the global reccession hit, GM collapsed, and during the company's rebuild Pontiac was euthanised. Thousands of Firebird fanatics wept.
Well those guys can now dry their eyes - if they have $60,000 spare that is.
The Firebreather from CDC is based on a a Chevrolet Camaro SS, which has been worked over extensivley to resemble a modern day Firebird.
The exterior changes include an all new front bumper (which looks a bit too much like Gonzo from the Muppets for my liking), sharp looking dual halo-style headlights, raised shaker hood, new side sills, new rear bumper, decklid spoiler, and new paintwork and graphics.
The interior has also been given the Firebird treatment. But in here it's more of a token gesture. The 'Camaro' branded centre section of the steering wheel has been replaced with the 'Firebreather' logo. There's also some gloss black trim and embroidered floor mats.
The drivetrain and chassis of the Classic Design Concepts Firebreather has been given some performance upgrades which should put it way out in front over a standard Camaro SS. Thanks to a Edelbrock supercharger system and a cold air intake power has been raised by a massive 173 horsepower to 599 hp. A Hurst short throw shifter (on the manual model) makes gear changes a snap, and a 3" cat-back sports exhaust makes sure it sounds as good as it goes.
