Yeah -- but you have to get the "trackpack" which comes with gears and tires etc needed to get so fast right now. That's what I meant by price increase, really -- I'd like to know how they start packaging things in the 2011 model...then you have to consider additional weight the Mustang will undoubtedly gain to deal with the power...plus the potential offering of a steeper axle ratio from Chevy...there are so many variables to consider...

Chevy can improve many things about the Camaro -- economic status be damned. If the car sells, they aren't going to leave it stagnant. Especially if they intent to compete with the foreign offerings in the sports coupe segment.
As for the aftermarket for the 5.0....it will be zero at the beginning, but it'll catch up. It's a Mustang for goodness sakes.
