Did anyone else catch this in the article?

All base Camaros will be equipped with an FE2 suspension package, though chief engineer Doug Houlihan says Chevy is "considering" adding, as an option, the uprated FE3 suspension that'll be standard on V-8 cars.
I wonder if you can get the Brembo brakes as part of the FE3 package on the LS/LT model? Guess we'll have to wait until the ordering details come out. I remember reading somewhere that difference between the FE2 and FE3 packages accounted for a good chunk of the weight difference between the LS/LT and the SS. But, in trade, you'd get better handling through stiffer spring rates, thicker anti-roll bars, and a 1cm lower stance.

With the FE3 package, an LS/LT would be able to hang with the SS in the corners but would still get outrun in the straights.
