I guess technically, there hasn't been an Impala SS since 2009...

I doubt Camaro will ever go into NASCAR. The Mustang/Challenger "stock cars" are absolutely awful.

I think it was always planned for MY2014.

Now that I think about it, if Holden gets their stuff together it could be a Chevrolet version of the VF Commodore. Just not sure when it'll be released.

New nameplate? Either a completely new car or a model that they've never used before?

My money is on the Malibu, GM is set to release an SS version soon. Also based on the fact that all Cup car bodies are exactly the same prior to the stickers being applied. You have to compare the looks of what is out there already vs what GM has. if you look at the new Ford Fusion, Dodge Charger, Toyota Camry, and the Malibu, they are the closest in over all dimensions.
