Turning radius?
Does anyone know what the turning radius is for the new Camaro yet? I ask because it's one thing I absolutely hate about my current car and hope is an improvement with my upcoming SS.

Hmm, good question. I'd like to know too. On one hand, the 20 inch wheels and the wide turning radius of the Corvette make me think it wouldn't be great. On the other hand, GM has been really good at reducing that radius recently. The difference between my Cobalt and my sister's Saturn, even though they're both GM compact cars, is stunning. My radius is much smaller, and I even have a bigger wheel/tire combo.

Yeah I don't know either, hopefully it is small. Large turn radius on a car is something that really bugs me. On a big truck or SUV it is understandable but on a sportscar it better be small.

sounds good to me. Not a whole lot bigger than my Cobalt. Cool
 Well that's one step towards not feeling so big.

If that's an accurate figure, that's not too bad. My car's curb-to-curb is 41 feet. Just over 3 feet shorter in a circle should be noticeable.
