Very awesome.

Imagine building your own personal car and then picking it out on the line. I don't really know if you could purchase it straight from the factory without going through a dealer.

Worried?

Are you worried/concerned about anything in particular about the new Camaro? I'm confident that GM will make it an awesome car, but I'm still worried about weight. It's been discussed to death and...

Doesn't bother me. I still open my doors and tailgate manually (by sticking a key into the slot, yeah they're there for a reason). My brother in law just got a new Altima (nice car) with one of...

The seats in the Viper are very comfortable. But it's focus isn't street comfort, it's track performance. I personally care far more for performance than comfort. Both great cars.

The third gens were really light, compartatively. Like 3100 pounds, with an iron block.

I assume it'll weigh in at 3700 lbs or somewhere around that. I still would like it to be much lighter. The power ratio is very impressive, but I would like for it to go around corners as well.

True, and Porsche makes some great cars. They've had their AWD versions for decades, so it's not too recent IMO. But there are some inside GM would want an AWD Vette.

I'm just worried about weight. I know the target is 3500, but if the Commodore weighs in at 4000, I'm sort of not so sure about that 3500 figure.

I don't think any traditionally RWD performance car has moved to AWD recently. If so, not many. AWD will add a good deal of weight and put more of that weight forward. Plus it'll add cost. A RMR,...

ZL-1 would be sweet, but the original ZL1's were double the price. I don't think I'd pay 60-70k for one. I'd rather buy a Z28 and make it faster for less cash.
