I have one word for everyone ADAPTATION

Get with the times, gas prices are going up, the economy is going down, if GM can slap an I4 into the camaro to appeal to a broader audience and sell more cars then thats what they should to, GM is not out there to solely "keep tradition" and "stick to the roots" or whatever you want to call it, they are there to sell a great car, make money, and STAY IN BUSINESS. You are never going to see your precious camaro again in the future if this doesn't work out and GM looses a ton of money. GM needs to sell this car to everyone, including the I4 turbo tuners, so that we can continue to enjoy this great car

A few more points

-There is nothing shameful with an I4 engine, power is power is power, a modded I4 pushing 350-400 HP (they do it in the solstice, check it out!) is nothing to shake your head at!

-The G8 GT with leather and sunroof and all the fixings is MSRP'd at less then 34 000, and that is a higher end sedan. you can damm well expect the camaro with a similar engine priced cheaper then it

-WE ARE GETTING A V8, so its not like GM has taken anything from us, we all want a V8 and guess what, we are getting it!
