Gen 5 Camaro Drivetrain Tech - 2011 - Z28 comming - no auto trans

http://www.chevroletreports.com/blog/1035861_gm-confirms-the-2011-chevrolet-camaro-z28-is-a-go

...an excerpt from the article says:

Keep in mind, however, that the Z28 will be almost 300 pounds lighter than the CTS-V, so expect 0 to 60 times under four seconds and a top speed of 193 mph (with the manual transmission). Speaking of gearboxes, the Z28 will most likely be offered only in a full-manual six-speed option (due to the higher cost of the automatic).

Heard it was gonna be boosted

I wish they would make an auto option. Wasn't there a spy pic that had 6.2l supercharged auto on the dash of the car somewhere?

Yeah....check out camaro5. But that doesnt mean it will happen. Either way I would go with the stick in a sports car every time, but that's just me.

article is a year old.

supposedly gonna get LSA motor and option for 6l80E

It will get the A6 as an option. Why not, they already have it in the CTS-V and I'm sure they could steal some GT500 buyer who want an auto. Not everyone wants a stick in sports car. I don't see why but there are people out there.

Me want one!

There would be no point in that auto test mule that GM has if they didn't plan an auto option.

Personally I would never buy a manual trans car (main reason I don't have an '03-'04 Cobra) - they are just not welcome in my garage. So I'll be very happy to see an auto option, and this car *might* sway me away from an LS3/A6 C6.

Yeah.... I WANT ONE

i heard it was going to be a FI car anyways..and i personally wouldnt ever buy an auto F body if i have a choice..ever. I HATE it when a computer tells me to shift..but a maggie charged LS3 6spd is always welcome!!
