2022 Chevy Camaro Shock And Steel Special Edition Unavailable In CA And WA

The 2022 Chevy Camaro is currently available in most U.S. states with the Shock and Steel Special Edition package, as GM Authority covered previously. The package upgrades the sports car with a range of aesthetic changes, as well as new performance brakes. However, because of the brakes, the package is unavailable in California and Washington.

The Shock and Steel Special Edition for the 2022 Chevy Camaro is tagged with RPO code B2E, and includes Brembo four-piston front performance brakes for 2LT and 3LT trim levels. The new Brembo brakes are tagged with RPO code J55, and include copper brake pads.

However, the Shock and Steel Special Edition package cannot be combined with the Performance copper-free brake system (RPO code BCD), which includes Brembo 6-piston front and 4-piston rear performance calipers. As a result, Chevy Camaro buyers in California and Washington cannot option in the Shock and Steel Special Edition package, as copper-free brakes are required by law in those two states.

The same is true for the Redline Edition package (RPO code WBL), which also cannot be ordered in conjunction with the Performance copper-free brake system.

To note, the Redline Edition includes the following content (relevant RPO codes listed in parentheses):

  • 20-inch Black-painted aluminum wheels with Red accents (SRI/58E)
  • Black Camaro fender badge with Red outline (CG6)
  • Redline Edition graphics (VUP)
  • Red seat belt color (3F9)
  • Red knee pads (2F5)
  • Premium carpeted floor mats (VYW)

As a reminder, the 2022 Chevy Camaro is the seventh model year of the sixth-generation sports car, and ushers in only a few changes and updates over the preceding 2021 model year. Under the hood, the 2022 Chevy Camaro can be had with the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LTG gasoline engine, the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine, the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 LT1 gasoline engine, and the supercharged 6.2L V8 LT4 gasoline engine.

Under the body panels, the Chevy Camaro rides on the GM Alpha platform, while production takes place at the GM Lansing Grand River Plant in Michigan.

  2. Copper. Minute copper atoms falling onto a CA or WA roadway. Think about the insanity that comes from a government voted in by a people who are perfectly fine with this insanity ruling their life like a jack booted thug holding their boot on your throat.
