We received our first fuzzy taste of the cosmetic changes that General Motors has prepared for the first significant update to its successful (in North America) fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro since its launch in 2009, during a television show on Tuesday, and it's now time to get an unobstructed view of the car at its world premiere in New York.

If you follow the break, you will find an embedded video with a countdown clock that will begin to live-stream GM's presentation of the facelifted 2014 Camaro from the Jacobs Javits center at precisely 12:45 PM EST.

Naturally, we'll follow up with a full depth review with all the juicy details and photos of the revised model shortly after, so stay tuned for more.

Update: GM confirmed the return of the Camaro Z/28 nameplate for the 2014 model. It features a 7.0-liter LS7 V8 with unique induction and exhaust systems, and delivers at least 500 horsepower (373 kW) and 470 lb-ft of torque (637 Nm).

"To optimize the track performance of the Camaro Z/28, the engineering team subjected it to an intensive lightweighting program, saving 100 pounds (45 kilograms) compared to the naturally aspirated Camaro SS and 300 pounds (136 kilograms) to the supercharged Camaro ZL1," said GM.

"While the new Camaro Z/28 is not intended to compete in a specific race series, it is solely focused on track capability. In initial testing, the Camaro Z/28 is three seconds faster per lap than the Camaro ZL1," the automaker added.
