So you should take that argument and bury it away because it just makes you look stupid when you use it.

Also, if it weren't for those 4 and cylinder Camaros, you wouldn't have your V8 because the car relies on those to stay alive. Thankfully GM offers all of us a plethora of choices with this car and we can buy whatever the hell we want right now.
Well apparently I am stupid, every 3rd/4th gen 1LE I've ever seen was a manual so I guess I just assumed that was the case especially since that was all you could get on the 5th gen. Not sure how I went this long without knowing that but I guess that pretty much kills that argument. I still don't like them offering the 1LE package on the non-V8s though. I don't have a problem with 4/6 cylinder Camaros in general, but they shouldn't be offered with the same "racing package" as the V8. If you want to race a 4 cylinder, get a Miata. When I see a Camaro with a matte black hood coming up behind me, I shouldn't have to question what's under the hood. What's next, a ZL1/1LE appearance package?
