Performax International, expects to receive its first brand new Chevrolet Camaro in the next few weeks
Queensland company Performax International, Australia's leading importer and converter of US-built cars and sports trucks, expects to receive its first brand new Chevrolet Camaro in the next few weeks. Performax technicians will then get straight to work to convert this iconic American sports coupe to right-hand drive and to ensure it meet all Australian compliance requirements
The Camaro will then be on offer to Australian enthusiasts. "It will be competitively priced here and ready for registration with a seamless right-hand drive conversion, full Australian Design Rule compliance and factory warranty," says Performax International General Manager Nicholas Vandenberg, who described the Camaro as a "fabulous car". It is, he says, one of the most keenly awaited new American vehicles in years and that Performax is determined to be the first to offer this iconic American muscle car to Australian customers. "We were lucky to get one so soon", he adds.
"The right-hand drive Camaros that roll out of our Sunshine Coast factory will look, feel and perform exactly as they would in their home country,"
"We expect extremely strong demand for the Camaro in Australia," says Mr Vandenburg. "Since its launch in the United States recently it's received nothing but great reviews for its performance, handling and design."
Mr Vandenberg says he expects an efficient turn-around on conversion and compliance thanks to Performax's experience with government requirements and its industry leading computer-aided design and engineering facilities.
"After 20 years' experience and thousands of conversions, we are able to do this work faster than anyone else and to the highest engineering standards.
"Also, we have recently introduced high-tech equipment that enables us to produce injection-moulded plastic components such as dashboards, air-conditioning ducting, consoles, switch panels and other interior components to factory-original standards of appearance and precision.
Performax International will keep potential buyers and enthusiasts informed of the conversion progress with regular updates and photographs on the dedicated Camaro page at and hopes to have its first car completed before the end of the year.
