LS7 doesn't have AFM...

Should be interesting! I say GM just goes all out... Offer as many engines as they can. V6, V6 turbo, LT1 NA SS, LT1 S/C ZL1, & then the almighty 427 Z28 "track edition"

2014 Camaro Refresh hunch

So guys ive been thinking about it more and more and it seems possible but im praying it doesnt happen because I spent 2k plus to get the look myself.

But I have a feeling the refresh will have a new bumper with the LENO bumper being it. And possibly a new taillight set up with afterburners built in


HOPING NOT!!! Lol you guys probably would love that, but not after I spent $2400 on my bumper

Anyone else think so?

Blogged by Peter Chubb today from PR...

"With the 2013 New York Auto Show set to see several debuts, such as the all-new Range Rover Sport; there will also be the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro at the event. General Motors will have other vehicles on show for the first time, but it’s their muscle car that will surely get the most attention.

However, in order for the car to be a success changes need to be made, not only to the exterior but the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro interior is essential also. As you would imagine GM is playing things close to their chest, so we can only assume what those new performance and design upgrades will be.

Sadly we believe that the new Camaro will only see a minor upgrade, but we should get to enjoy a few more horses under the hood. The reason we say this is because General Motors and Chevrolet are working on an all-new model, so it would be silly to make vast changes to the 2014 model.

There have been some spy photos of what could be the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro, but we cannot be sure if this was the all-new model we spoke about earlier. The reason we emphasized on the interior is because it looks as though General Motors has let a child loose inside and allowed them to have the final creative decision.

It would be nice for the 2014 model to have an adult make a few decisions this time, although we fear this will not happen until the huge redesign of the Camaro. This is an ongoing thing when it comes to the interiors of American made vehicles, because they often look cheap when put next to their European counterparts."

It's like a dream come true!
Huh?? The MPG's for an LS7 Camaro will be horrible, I would bet 13/19 if youre lucky, but I think definitely worse than what the ZL1 gets.
