    I liked the old LT series and SS camaro's. This new model doesn't float my boat as much. Not too bad,but nothing to lose sleep over. Funny, I can't help but wonder why Government motors isn't putting out a hybrid camaro. Also can't help but wonder what the gas guzzler tax will be on that puppy.

    575Hp plus is the word I heard on this one... A tuner can get 650+ from it with nothing more than a laptop.

    It will be so awesome one day when the big-3 will realize that putting a truck engine in a car and building a car around it simply does not work. Visibility out of those "sports" cars is close to zero - very tall hood, very tall doors - cannot see anything in front of the car, blind spots are huge.
