This thread is for posting known facts about the 6thgen Camaro. Post what you know with a link proving it.
FACT—The 6thgen Camaro will be built in Lansing, Michigan alongside its Alpha platform mate the Cadillac ATS (
GM).
Things we can reasonably expect (NOT FACTS):- available 8-speed automatic
- LT1 engine (SS model)
- turbo-4 (competes directly with Ford turbo-4 Mustang and imports)
- evolutionary styling
- significant weight reduction
Additional facts provided by SuperSound! Appreciate the help! Will edit when I get to a PC to clean up the post. As of 4/27/15
