but all that weigh light. And I agree w/you have the were you can afford them.

They will be smart in terms of engine selection. The engines will change cause the numbers will change as they work the engines more.

1) make it light, the current GTO is super powerful, but a total pig in the weight department. My old F-body actually weighs less.
2) Offer more engines. perhaps the 6.0 could be a z28. a low cost (RS) version could have the 5.3 out of the tahoe. and perhaps an ss model with a detuned version of the ls7. it would also be nice to see packages like the 1le come back and actually make a difference.
3) finally, cost is key. they need to be cheaper than their ford/dodge/toyota/nissan counterparts and offer better or equal performance.

This is the winning combination, i guess if GM wasnt in financial problems it would be easier to pull it off, or maybee GM will pull it through because of the financial trouble (having a noose around ure neck makes u work harder).

1) even if its heavy if they have good power it can be overcame--> see charger SRT 8
2) offer FEWER engines. Make smart choices in terms of engines cause more options is harder to manage in terms of business.
3) cant have everything. I hope they make a good car if it cost more than make it worth it

I also wish GM would give us some more info I get tired of the same old same old.
