It's been a WHILE since a factory 10 second rolled out. How freaking great would that be, lol.

Isn't it obvious?

LSA = A6 Transmission
LS9 = M6 Transmission

Ah gotcha...but still though, lol. Either way, all the extra things not even concerning the engine, will be enough for me to want one.

Just cause it ia an AT does not make it an L99 in a Z28....

How do you know it's a Z28 and not a SS. I don't see a label.

How do you know it's just a Camaro with a supercharger? It's a test mule You have no clue what is under the skin.. geesh...

I think the group wanting a lighter weight 5th Gen of any variant is a bit more numerous than we seem. However we are realists too and know that this Zeta platform isn't going to yield much weight loss save for expensive exotic materials that will price the car right out of the segment. A Zeta Camaro is better than no Camaro. GM engineers realized a long time ago that this car wans't going to be light and since weight loss is expensive, more power from a supercharged engine already on the production shelf isn't. So we will likely get a Z28 packing more advertised power than a GT500 but will probalby spot the Dearborn rival by 150lb + on the scales. I can't see the Z28 losing any weight over the SS by adding the LSA, suspension and CTS-V brakes.

A more svelt Camaro will have to be top priority for the 6th Gen.
