Y-Body is not flexible. It's simply a Corvette.

They'd need to design an entirely new RWD platform...

But we're still not sure what we're reading. If it's the Alpha CTS-V that is reaching 4000 lbs...that's already an improvement on the current model. Who knows what the rumor is about?...
Gotcha, read into the Corvette chassis in depth last night...

and, I am also reading that that 4000lbs maybe the AWD version so that's not too shabby if its an AWD, TT V6, 4 door sedan. If it is the CTS-V that means the 2SS Camaro could easily see a 260lb weight loss. I have no idea how much the 2012 Camaro 2SS weighs this year though but I think it is around 3910. Still, that's about 3650lbs...way better than before...
