The key point for GM is competing with the Mustang. And yes the LS3 costs just as much as the LS1 to produce. So I would not look at it as being to much more expensive just below 28K but then I am not sure if this will be fully optioned like the V6. We also have to remember the V6 direct injection is very new technology and costs more to produce if not because of materials because of research time therefore i do not see the LS3 being to much more although i believe there will be another base V8 from what i have heard that will be just over 400 horses most likely the 6.0 L.

Also the LS3 is bad i've seen it and been around it can't tell you to much but with slight modifications such as cam she can put down around 500 to the rearwheels so im not to sure that GM will necessarily supercharge it as much as adjust the cam and timing on it to what ive seen for a 500 horsepower version.
When did GM announce this? That is as good of speculation as we have seen and it is likely to be true, but has GM actually came out and said it?
