I sure hope so, because my heart stopped for a second.

Well it looks like this will open up more business for the High Performance tuner market...

I feel like someone just put a knife in my heart

Well I think a few questions can be put to bed for a while.
No Firebird.
No Z28
No transforming Camaro.

Seriously though, I was looking forward to my SAR Camaro (Super Advanced Robot)

Damn these times suck!

At least they got the Camaro SS finished first, wonder if this impacts the DI V8 that GM's been working on.

djsnoflake · 02-18-2009, 05:55 PM

My SS (If GM lasts long enough to make it) Just became more of a collectors item I think.

Well if they can promote it as being more fuel efficent to replace exisiting engines without it I would say it is still a go.

Emher · 02-18-2009, 05:58 PM

Well then it's settled. As soon as I'm done with this education I gotta start working MY ASS OFF to be able to buy a new V8 Camaro before they're gone.

I dig your optimism, but as soon as those idiots at CAFE, EPA and all those places hear "V8" they'll just go "no".
