Pricing has not been set -- but I can tell you that $25,000 is a very bad guess!

Look at the competition...............

i think it is great, just as everybody starts to flip out about stuff.

here comes the father to spread words of wisdom, and the sea calms down.

i do have a question..... if $25k is a bad guess for the v6 then is it a good one for the v8?

I can't wait any longer!!!! I want my Camaro now.

Dodge didn't price for competition but hopefully GM does.

I just don't see it happening. I sure hope that I am wrong.

The Malibu is in a diff class anyone looking for a Malibu isnt going to say man i can get the v6 Camaro for less and then buy one, but then again i could be wrong. Besides the V6 Malibu is the top of line so you would have to compare the top of line Camaro to it V8 SS.

If i remeber correctly on the revealing GM said it would be priced to compete with the stang (right or wrong)

I'm sure they will. Dodge targeted the older crowd with the Charger/Challenger, but GM and Ford are targeting a much broader audience. Besides, if anyone should know the importance of competitive pricing, it'd be GM seeing as how the lack thereof sunk the Camaro last time.

You're still thinking too....too...I dunno. To much about the money, I think. Not all vehicles are made equal, you know...for instance, how is it that a Corvette engine can make it into a Camaro for under 30k, you know what I mean?

Broaden your view a little bit; it's not too hard to imagine how GM can offer this car at the prices they intend to.

I don't think they can offer a Camaro with a Corvette motor for under $30k. I think it will come in around $32k.


A 2LT Malibu with a V6 starts at $26k. An LTZ with V6 is around $28k. I would be shocked to see the V6 maro under $25k. A Cobalt SS is $23k. No way is the Camaro less price than the Cobalt SS.

Prove me wrong GM, PLEASE!

Do we know for sure that we're getting a Corvette engine in the Camaro for under $30K?

That's a relief.

[Captain Awesome]

Unless $25000 is a bad guess on the low side...

If the price of the Camaro V6 base is in the $18,000 range msrp, then definitely it will sell like hot-cakes.. With an RS package in the $3,000- $4,000 range, the RS will be affordable for most as well. What I do hope is the V8 RS package should cost a lot less than the V6 RS package because the V8 comes with most of the items standard.. Can you give us a hint that this type of thinking is correct Scott?

[kanys]

Yeah I really hope this is a high estimate. I had guessed that the V6 would start around 22-23k, with the LT at 25k. For the sake of competition I think GM should start the SS at 28-29k, but that being pretty much the stipped down model.
