It's only 14 FWHP difference if Ford isn't lying. But, stock for stock the LS3 Camaro will lose because of the weight issue.

the boss 302 will cost above 40k and come with racing headers, exhaust,gears,etc. the only thing owner can do to add power is add a power adder by then the car will be above 50k.

my car 01ss is at 450 motor and weight in at 3650 with full tank and i in it.
bring it on......

I will stand back and watch all the GM fanboys looking for excuses to justify just how LAME GM is....game over girls, Ford won. There is nothing in the new Camaro platform that could come close. Dont expect the Camaro to last long into production either

You think a few months making profit is enough to counteract 25 years of poor marketing, poorer administration and, yes, mostly crappy products? Think about the cars GM made in the 80s and early 90s....utter crap! Maybe Ford products were not much good either BUT, they knew how to market them and made better use of their profit. Guess why they did not used any government help....

Also watch all that profit go away when the new Mustangs start to out sell the Camaros AGAIN, this time with performance to back them up, so yes, its bye bye GM, soon. I hope Im wrong though.

What the hell does cars from 80's and 90's have to do with selling cars today?? Open up your eyes and look at the marketing and new products. Seems to be working and it looks like GM learned from it's mistakes. A niche car that sells 100,000 units/ year isn't going anywhere.

To the OP: Like I posted in the other thread, we don't know what's in store for the 2012 Camaro. A GMPP intake, tune and 3.73 gear could put the SS over the Boss. If you seriously bought your 2010 thinking it would be faster than all other cars forever then you really should sell it. You must not know much about bolt-on's plus your "old tech LS3".

Oh look here, a marketing strategist. Maybe GM should hire you. Sounds like someone didn't get a stinky finger last night. Go buy a used Yugo dude. Look what you just said, 25 years of poor marketing. LOL In that case they should of been out of buisness 20 years ago.
