we are. . .

some people want a v6TT for certain reasons others want the V8 for theirs. and no one will back down on why they want what they want. you can argue so many different points on why it should be either. but in the end no matter who is right and who is wrong the performance vs price is what matters the most for the camaro. if the performance is low or equal to the SS and the price is high it won't sell but if the performance is out standing and the price is just low enough for people to afford it then they will sell like hot cakes.

I went for a ride in a Camaro a few weeks ago with a guy from the Camaro plant. He's a PR guy. He told me that the Z28 is getting the LS9. There is no confirmed date for prodution though.

I agree, the Z28 has to have a V-8 otherwise I would just Supercharge my 2010 Camaro SS. I would not be interested in a V-6 with Turbos. The 6 just does not have the sound! Remember the 69 Z28 was a Small Block V-8 not a V-6.

somethings not right on the weights, a 1SS & a 2SS weigh the same.

Amen my brother!
