So back on track. The national unveiling fo the 2008 Corvette was this weekend and they have officially released the numbers on the new LS3. This motor BETTER make it into the Camaro. It has 430 HP (436 HP with optional exhaust upgrade) and 424 ftlb of torque! Looks like GM is going to own the modern day muscle car wars. The Challenger's 425 hp Hemi and what ever the Mustang will have by then will be no match for this beast. I can't wait for it to be sitting in my driveway!

| I think it's a shame Chevy didn't have any to sell, because if they had a booth in the parking lot with Camaros on hand, they would have sold out. The audience reaction was absolutely overwhelming when the car made it's appearance onscreen. There was an audible gasp as everyone took a collective breath, the crowded theater cheered and clapped. It was a pretty cool reaction to the car. Figuring many people aren't caraholics like us internet enthusiasts, they might very well have been seeing the Camaro the first time. And it was goooood. | |

For me to buy this car, I want it made IN AMERICA and no where else. Canada for me is just a matter of crossing Ambassador Bridge. Its close to America but it is not America. If I want a car I want it to be made here in America. I already have an impala made in canada and i regreat not buying a true american car.

Replying to: nosirrahg (Jul 05, 2007 1:56 pm) Of the Camaros, the first generation is still my favorite, followed by the fourth gen. up to '97, which is pre-Concord look nose (though not the worst in history-just not an improvement). The second generation is yet another good looking car, and the third generation was in some ways a good looking car, if not quite so sturdy or solid looking. The fifth generation seem too - too, as in tallish belt line, excessive width and sort of out of proportions compared to the original. A classic '97 Z28 is gonna look leaner and sleeker. Could be long term buy and hold car. And those SS in fourth gen. really a bargain. Loren |

Replying to: m1miata (Jul 07, 2007 4:13 pm) And for complete disclosure my wife drives a "J"-VIN Honda Accord, so don't get the impression I'm closed minded on the subject. If driving a Japanese-made car gives her the peace of mind she needs to get through her day, I've got no problem with that. But for me, I don't see the advantage. But to bring the discussion back to the future Camaro, I went to see the Transformers movie today, and as much as the logical side of me leans towards buying a Malibu Hybrid in a year or so, there's a part of me that hopes a 6-cylinder Camaro will cost about the same, and only get slightly worse gas mileage. At least I could get a subdued color that doesn't scream "mid-life crisis".
