I wouldn't expect 2015, since thats the anticipated release of the 6th gen. They'd likely wait a year (at least) so they can continue the buzz around the new car.

And more like 499 or something because of intake and exhaust routing managing to be slightly more efficient in the Corvette vs the Camaro (430 vs 426 in the LS3)

But at any rate, an LS7 Camaro...

Well, the Z28 is still over a year away from production, so there isn't really any benefit to saying "yes, we're building it" right now. Only the truly dedicated will wait that long. Everybody else...

It does not make sense to test the handling and braking capabilities of it with the balance of the car skewed because of the supercharged engine. If they were planning on using a NA engine, they'd...

I am expecting a new set of small block V8's by that time. And I'm hoping that 1SS and IBM are both still available.

It pretty much has to be faster than a base Corvette though if its going to be competitive against the GT500. And pricing, GM has kept the Camaro a little bit above the Mustang from base V6's to the...

I don't even want a Z28, my dream car is a 2013 Imperial Blue 1SS. But I at least accept that there will be more differences between a Z28 and an SS than there will be between an SS and an LS.

Last I checked, automatic Camaros are outselling manuals about 3:1. Seems like a pretty bad business move to limit it to manual only

Not really. A bad run in a 2010 GT500 is about the same as a good run in an SS, but that is no longer the case with the 2011's. The 2011 GT500 easily tops the SS.
