why does the SS deserve that? the SS is nothing more then a watered down name plate slapped on every line of car they have mad. weather it deserved it or not. the Z28 has always been a camaro and will always be a camaro. nothing else can lay claim to being a Z28.

and why can't the Z have more power? dyno's showed it was close if not more back in the 60's. so why oh why can't it be more powerful, better handling, and better overall car then the SS?

Because is the '60s the they had insane racing guidelines they had to follow... even though they don't exist now, LET'S STILL ABIDE BY THEM!

I used to think the same thing until I looked at the specs from the late 60's and early 70's. The Z 2/8 had a higher performace level than the SS did.

Whatever car you want on top (SS or Z/28) LS7 would be a nice addition.

TTV6 well not sure where it would fall maybe a 2LT/SS

honestly i could care less about v6 v8 TT or anything. ill get that car instead of the other models just for the interior.

It is possible, he says, but I think a better question to ask would be regarding a forced induction V6. A TTV6 is a very specific product. A V6 with forced induction could imply everything from a singly supercharger of any description to multiple turbochargers or even nitrous oxide. This would have yielded either a response of "likely" or "not likely" as opposed to "perhaps."

Not my thing but it would be cool to see. As long as they still offer an F/I top dog V8 to compete with the GT500, then I'm all for it.
