So do I...It makes me wonder if that really IS the base V6...GM proposed two V6 models, one for gas mileage, one for performance. From the looks of it, that is the performance model.

So since that is the battery cable over in the driver's corner does that mean the battery is in the trunk??

You think they could've at least designed a new intake instead of that re-designed old 3.4 one heh

Good stuff, but I can tell these cars are gonna be way expensive. More than likely one could buy a new GT of the same model along with 5k worth of mods and still check in less than the new camaro. I hope Im wrong

You are aware the 93-97 fbodys used a "cold air induction" setup while the 98+ years were more of a lid induction....

I think I've been a member here longer than you?

It's called a joke, maybe even a little sarcasm. In the spirit of bmxer8699's bold predictions, here is mine: You will be able to buy headers for the new camaros, maybe even a short-throw shifter.
