Camaro LFX vs 12-13 Impala LFX

I was suprised by the LFX and the 6spd trans they put in the Impala it seems like a great powertrain for this car.

I haven't been able to find any videos of the 12-13 LFX Impala actually in action. But by the seat of my pants the acceleration feels like it was right there w/ my out going 12 Mustang V6 (manual w/ 2.73's) which I'm happy with.

Impala is 3650lbs, so its about 100lbs lighter than the Camaro
Impala has 22hp less and 16lb/ft less tq.
also not too sure on the gearing of the Impala 6spd auto
AOL autos puts 12 Impala at a 6.3s 0-60 and the 12 Camaro at a 6.0s 0-60...
