"The Hurst Redline V6 Camaro received a tremendous amount of positive feedback when we launched it at NSRA Nationals in 2010, so we thought it would be even cooler if we made it available to consumers," said Chris Phillips, CeO of Hurst Performance Vehicles. "The sound, look, feel and engineering excellence of these cars are just what consumers expect from a Hurst-engineered vehicle."
Additional upgrades include a Hurst HARD-Drive "Pistol Grip" shifter and Hurst-embroidered head rests and floor mats.
