2010 Camaro v-6 first drive
But you're comparing the high revving HP of a DOHC V6 to a torquey V8. How bout 273ft-lbs @ 5k vs 325ft-lbs at 2.4k. The LT-1 excelled at being unruly, capable of completely destroying a set of tires through an intersection and having the inexperienced facing the wrong way after making a quick U-turn. With 15 year in suspension, tire, transmission, and engine design the 3.6 Camaro is a teddy bear in comparison even though it may be able to closely match an early factory LT-1 in speed. Edit: I hope the 3.6 being in the Camaro brings out more Supercharger and Turbocharger kit makers. Kinda sad to see this engine family widely ignored by GM performance fans while the Ecotec and LSx get all the good stuff.

Is this an Uncamo'd shot of the New Cobalt?
Am I the only one that thinks it looks too much like the current Nissan Sentra....at least in overall egg shape.

GM @ NYIAS '08: Pontiac G8 GXP
I hope you do realize that the improvements of the LS3 over the LS2 make it a better performer, and adding a few more hp is just weener waggling.

1992 Oldsmobile Toronado
Nice story and congrats on the car. I would love me a solid black Trofeo...IMO the chrome ruins the futuristic look.

AWD in C7's Future?
Yes, but they sure do need AWD. 911 Turbo: ~3500lbs, AWD, 0-60 in 3.4s, and still a decent street car. 911 GT3 RS: ~3000lbs, RWD, 0-60 in 4.0s, may handle better, but not great for the streets (I'm willing to bet the ZR1 out performs it too) I see no problem in adding a AWD Vette to the line up. It will be a killer street car (imagine actually being able to launch a Vette without the rear coming around on you). The should also keep around the ZR1 for the track hungry folks.

Corvette C6R team a victim of their own success
GT1 is the only reason I've ever watched AMLS...I feel Corvette Racing is making a smart move to try to save the class. I also feel the Aston Martins are pretty evenly matched with the Corvettes, so they shouldn't even be considering performance balancing.

SAAB Black Turbo reborn as Turbo X
I'm hoping for at least that much. Even though the Haldex system isn't as good as true AWD system, having 300-320ish horsepower would certianly jab Subaru in the eye.
