I could take a cracker box and put 708 HP in it and the "muscle" fans would buy it simply because it was 1 more than the Fiat.
The Camaro, in order to survive, has to go beyond "muscle" and simply be a great automobile.
I worked there. We accomplished great things on my teams that would be a huge list most of which GM gets no or little credit for.
I know the people there and I know what they are capable of.
Taking a an ATS coupe and making a 7/8 scale Gen5 Camaro with more HP could be done by the Chinese. What I want is the best work that the people I know are capable of making.
I want great. I want industry changing. I want Dearborn confused and I want Italy afraid. I........want..........MORE

Ditto..... but just like your SIG says....
"Speed, it seems to me, provides the one genuinely modern pleasure." - Aldous Huxley
SO.... for that, we must have MUSCLE = HP to the wheels! = MODERN pleasure!! (so we are on the same page actually!!)
Edit: Also... I really like GM. But isn't it interesting how Fiat is tapping nostalgia with a modern technology?
