Following his return to the States after a 3-month long stint in the UK training with London based football team Tottenham, David Beckham was back in America this week, and spotted driving a new Chevrolet Camaro performance car.

The former England skipper was photographed leaving a training session at LA Galaxy this week behind the wheel of the archetypal American car. The Camaro 2011 is the latest addition to the Chevrolet line-up, with Beckham’s customised version likely to have cost in the region of $55,000.

The profile of the new Chevrolet Camaro received a boost after it was featured in the popular Transformer movies. A number of Chevrolet models including the Volt, Stingray, Trax and Chevy Beat all appeared in the Transformer movies, however the Camaro vehicle, dubbed Bumblebee in the films, was the lead car in the series of movies.

The Chevrolet Camaro is available in two engines sizes namely the V6 which has a 3.6 litre engine and 312bhp, and the V8 engine which boasts a 6.2 litre engine and gives an output of 400bhp.

Beckham recently sold his Porsche on eBay for just shy of $150,000 so the new Chevrolet maybe a replacement for his old sports car.

As well as the new Camaro, Becks also has a $300,000 Rolls Royce on his driveway, plus a $40,000 customised Jeep Wrangler.
