There's no need for an opinon...it is fact that high performance no longer depends on the number of cylinders.

Yeah just took a look at the top 10 fastest cars in the world Today only 1 of them has a V6 and its last on the list so yeah it still depends on the number cylinders you have ! Why do you think Ferraris and Mclarens use V8s and V12s ? Those guys aren't stupid they know what works and what Doesn't. And the most a TT V6 can be capable of and still have an aluminum Block and still be safe is around 550-600 bhp the most ! And for the money its going to take for GM to build a lighter 500-600 bhp TT V6 Camaro and have it reliable and fuel efficient you know its going to cost over 60k so tell me who's going to buy that ? what collectors ? the hardcore performance guys ? Yeah i Wouldn't see the import guys buying a 60k+ camaro just because it has a TT V6 and then not to mention they would be turning away the older guys that want the Z28 to be a V8 and actually have the money to buy one.
So yeah sorry about writing this whole thing just wanted to explain all my views on the subject
