Camaro doesn't need all that bracing, the unibody structure is so rigid. However, if they're lapping with those cars, that would explain the roll bars - company policy, I believe, to protect their drivers. They did the same thing with the ZR1.

Unless I've missed the feature in various explanations...I don't think so.

It's an advanced damper, as a simple explanation. The springs take care of the ride height for the most part, MR "just" uses the dampers to fine-tune compliance and compensate for body roll/pitch real-time...

I agree with this statement. The system can't adjust static ride height. It is possible to imagine that the system can change the dynamic ride height range in reference to the static ride height as the car is in motion (sport vs tour) but this wouldn't be much if measurable at all.

The new MR3 can make dampening adjustments up to 1000 times a second but it cannot make any kind of ride height adjustments.

Haha, now I know what to expect when I get married...

On a separate note, we keep seeing test shots of these cars. I know this may sound dumb, but what are they testing at this point? The cars look the same now every time we see shots, and their site has the ZL1 mentioned, so what possibly is getting tested at this point?

And last, that British Racing Green looks awesome on it. Even the dark purple looks good IMO. But the Camaro needs a green other than the Synergy (not that I dont like that green, its just not a shade I could live with on the daily)

I agree the new wheels and wider tires give the car a much more aggressive stance!

haha, My wife is never surprised to find me looking and pictures of this car. She wants it just as much as I do though, yup i got me a camaro girl! She even had me set that picture as the background on her nook (its a electronic book reading thing-a-micgigger)
