I'm not moaning because the base engine might be a small I4 engine (after all, the 6th gen should be considerably lighter), I'm more concerned that the process of evolving could leave us with a non-descript, vanilla ecocar that does not even remotely resemble what a Camaro could and should be.

There are no indications that anyone at GM views the future of a Camaro as an eco car. Mark Reuss and many others will keep everyone on track. Having said that, if the government continues to mandate higher and higher MPG all cars will be appliance like eco cars.

We all must keep that in mind the next time we enter a voting booth.
