Well, I have had a few runs against the local salesman (Dodge Dealer) and he always goes home with his tail tucked. They have a few more HP but I guess the weight and the execution of the design did not translate as well as they had hoped.

As far as a new V8 for a future Camaro goes, they'd probably have a 5.3 V8 and the 6.0 LS2 with 400 hp. I've heard also that a 450+ V8 would be available as a special production Camaro.
Klay said:Do you honestly think they would advertise more hp in a camaro than a vette? That's what I don't understand about, people seem to think because they got the vette engine now they will again. Remember, the camaro used to cost more than the mustang so I don't think gm will do that again if they do indeed bring it back. I could see a 400 hp power camaro but it would probably be advertised as like 375 or something.

lethaljay said:Don't worry guys! We need to think of who is creating the Camaro design, GM! Don't forget of all their "beautiful" models they have came up with lately: GTO, Charger..
