Camaro of the week ??????

Is it just me or does it seem like the only way to be camaro of the week is if you have a boosting power adder ???
I have only seen one or two that werent boosted ! i just feel like that if i am wrong let me know or if you feel the same let me know !

Basically i just think it sucks for the guys who have tons of work into the middle of the motor not just the top and they dont get rcognized as much !
once again i could just be rambling on and thats not the case but just how it seems !
either way all COTW cars are BEAUTIFUL and all DESERVE that title !

true but i think that everyone should have a chance to be cotw wether its because of your external or internal mods .... not because you are boosted or you have an ss !

First, The cars featured as car of the week, are cars that are different from others. Both in the looks and performance department. It's about taking it to the next level.
Second, there have been a couple of V6's featured as COTW

I agree with both sides here haha I think it just happens to be "chance" (although % wise is in favor of) that the COTW has some sort of forced induction however also agree with what Milk and Manny said that you don't have to be. COTW is all about recognizing and taking time to admire the time and effort that has been put into the car. I personally would like to see a COTW that may not have all that much done to the car but more of a story behind it...not to say the guys who have been COTW already don't have a story behind theres. One day I'll try to get mine there but at this point I will sit back and admire what my fellow Camaro breatheran have accomplished with their cars both V6 and V8.

Come on guys! There are only 52 weeks in a year. Do the math. How many Camaros have been sold to date? Don't be upset, just enjoy what the others have done.
