I may or may not get a gen V 5th gen. Depends on when it comes out. I will be ready to buy my car in 2011 or so. I might wait 1 MY for that engine but no more.

A bit more elaborate, but possible would be a V10 version at 6 liters and 500 hp (great for the ZO6, and then detune it to for truck applications).
Just brainstorming here, but it seems GM needs great technology, while at the same time, needs to watch its R&D budgets.

That would (sorta) work with a 90 degree V6. Not so much with a 60 degree.
