Who knows if true, the Camaro could most likely be replaced by an electric sedan.

I'm just not into these mid-engine GM vehicles. But that's just me and i may be in the minority.

GM making things that rock the exclusivity of the automotive performance world gives me warm and fuzzies. It is America doing what it does best.

It's a digital rendering that blended the Camaro and Corvette and has nothing to do with GM.

This car didn't get hit by an ugly stick, the whole dang tree fell on it! The C8 Vette must have been parked next to it and was hit as well!
The C8 has grown on me and the coming z06 makes my manly bits tingle like the GT350 voodoo did.
While the basic trim corvettes are very white-socks-with-sandals, the upper trim versions (with wheels that don’t look like they come off a mid 2000’s Toyota) are quite nice. I’d argue that the mid-engine C8 corvette is living up to its legacy as a middle finger to European and Italian exclusivity.
However, any sports car that isn’t a convertible is pretty pointless on the street.

I wonder if they are going to put the "truck" 2.7L turbo in the Camaro (like Cadillac), and drop the old 2L 4 cyl turbo.
They don't even need to do that. The visibility thing can be gotten used to. Just keep selling it with the V-8 and MT6...
IMO, they should drop the 4 popper and turbo the V-6...that would increase performance to near, or equal that of the V-8...
The performance would be there (maybe even better), but the coolness factor would be gone...
I've done several "build & price" in the last month, and found too much of a jump from the 3.6L LGX to the base 6.2L V8.
A basic 5.3L with a 6L90E, electric locker, 4.10s and sunroof would make a good bracket car that should run 13s with tires.
The 3.6L LFX has turbo's in the Cadillac. I don't think the LGX has been factory turbo'd yet.
The old school 350 sbc had 300hp, the stock 3.6L LGX, 335hp in the Camaro and more with a cat-back and tune.
