The Camaro is lighter than the GXP and the GXP hp is rated at 415hp - where as the LS3 MT6 Camaro is rated at 422. I am hoping for at least 4.5sec with launch control.

Why does everyone think the LS3 with MT6 (422hp) will be slower than the L99 (400hp) Auto?
Because the auto is geared lower 1st thru 4th, this may make up for the difference?
