I'm starting to think this is entirely generated from the high revving ricer crowd who want the Camaro to be an Evo. It started out with everyone talking about mpg, like the proponents were all hankering for a hybrid or smart car version. Then it became the twin turbo HiPo torque monster version. (Which I don't believe will be any cheaper or get better mpg than a NA DI V6.)

The HP is about the same so why do it? Because Ford might? If your ford jumps off a bridge...

They just made an LS7 Z/28 Camaro. The guys and gals on the design team of this car CARE what it is in keeping with its history. When I said what if they made a 4 banger Corvette, everyone said-- IMPOSSIBLE! That's different...

This here is the best selling sports car in America in the last few years, why make a turbo 4 cylinder version that outperforms a V6 and approaches the V8 and change the image of the car from an American muscle icon to a ricey 4 cylinder grocery getter?!
