But thanks for sharing anyway.

I'll wait until I hear something from Fbodfather/GM before I believe it.

That's...well, That would be exactly what the term 'speculation' means....especially since they're still spouting that the 'SS' will have the LS7

Nice find

, but I wouldn't invest too much time in it...

Hi guys, not sure what is and what's not re the Camaro SS, but I found this interesting article on autospies.

Thread Moved

Just want to try and keep things clean-looking around here.

The 'SS' article is just Speculation...and a repost

, but keep looking out for stuff

Things to look out for in these types of articles:

How is it written? this article seems to have been written by a foreign exchange student, or a middleschooler, the grammar is terrible.

What are they saying, are they still useing references to things that are known to be false? "Market analysts anticipate that most of the Camaro buyers will be enthusiasts, people who owned one when they were younger."
Either Market analysts don't listen to GM, or the author is the 'market analyst'.

That, and the fact that they're using blatantly photoshopped pictures as the 2010 Chevy Camaro....

I, personally, believe that this is an example of the refuse from internet car sites nowadays...in the lack of real info (or, rather, any they deem important) they come up with these crazy theorys, but never acknowlege them as such. It makes them seem like ther're on top of their game.

I don't blame them, nor am I putting anybody down - they, like us, are desparate for anything....

The person who wrote that doesn't know what hes talking about. I question how he came up with some of those numbers. His facts are off because facts on the new camaro have not been released, and he didn't use very many words like "possible", "maybe", "could be", "likely", "anticipated", etc. Things like "The SS will have 500 hp". 3 things wrong with that, there may not be a SS, it may not be 'top dog', and nobody knows what it will have for power in any event.

interesting pic of what I assume is someone's interpretation of what an SS model might look like...

They'll probably save that engine for the ZL-1! expect about a 25-50 horse gain for the SS if they do make a ZL-1 that is.
