so you people are telling me that it's ok for a DI 3.6 v6 to make more hp and tq then a none DI 4.3l v6 version but a DI V8 that's been down sized to less than 6.2 l making more hp and definitely making more tq isn't ok? you got to be kidding me. . .and who said the new gen V would rev higher? this isn't a DOHC motor we are talking about here. granted there might be increases in the redline but not by much.

people like to compare top model to top model with out regard to price. that kills me. you're saying it's ok to compare a 50K and 40k car to a 32-34k car? considering the SRT doesn't slaughter the current SS you are waisting your money on the SRT. . .performance per dollar. and the GT500 isn't even in the same league as the SS. come on it's 50k. if the camaro was priced out that high it better be able to hold it's own against the GT500. but it's not. it's a 31k starting out for the performance it has. . .which puts it in line with the GT. which the GT with brembo's and such is right in between the 1ss and 2ss for price.

As for the people talking about how GM needs to get off it's butt. . .yea fords had an idea what GM was going to release for a while now. they've had time to plan and institute changes and raise the price of the mustang years before to pay for the changes. yea. . .GM isn't asleep it takes time and profits to change something. give them more then a year. sheesh this isn't the 60's any more, where corp spending through the roof and changes were every 30 days. . .
