The pontiac gxp weighs 3600lbs, and the camaros are pretty heavy cars, the RS weighs 4286lbs! I actually checked what it said on the driver door today!

That was the GVW (gross vehicle weight) not curb weight.

yeah they may be closer than the video seems to show but who is driving makes a huge difference most guys who mod and are into cars for performance actually learn how to drive right

I honestly found a killer deal on mine. A fresh 454 with a lot of performance goodies in a 91 camaro for $1700... I really miss is.

As soon as I get my headers on and a retune...I'm going to lay off the LS4 for a while. It's project time.
