Saw that.
What that really wants to know is: How much will you pay?

Whatever happened to more than 2 engine options? Perhaps a lower compression V8 RS option that was readily available to low boost supercharging?

The initial lower HP/TQ output would put it closer to the V6 for insurance breaks????

Mabye a low restriction exhaust system option?

Since the inception of the tuneable fuel maps...an option which gives a "performance" fuel map inherent on the chip?

For example, how many engine/drivetrain options were available in '69...from which the new car is loosely styled.

The F-Body's, in the last incarnation, were pretty much an 'all or none' proposition. Give the consumer some options.

Perhaps even advertise that you can 'customize' your own new Camaro to your taste? How many people actually place orders for new vehicles these days? Or do most simply buy off of the lot w/ 'most' of the things that they like?

Just a thought (or 8)

I was suprised by the survey...they ask about interest in the ss427 car - 2 options to choose from the 500hp LS7 and the 600hp LS9...I also noticed that they ask about a Z28 option and an RS option but suprising to me the RS package is NOT available with the Z28 option...
