Wow.... If that's true (772 hp AND the DCT from the GT) then this thing is gonna dominate.

That’s good. It better dominate. It will only make Chevy respond. All is good.

And they've been reporting for a year the price will be $70k. I don't think so. I'll bet with adm's the price is near $100k.

But as posted, all is good: the more competition the better: Z, HC, Demon, GT500.

True.


In Canada the ZL1 start around 72 000 CAD. The GT350R with the technology package start at 90 000 CAD. First 2 Years you had to add almost 20 000 CAD for a total of 110 000 CAD.

The GT350R is a great car but compared to a ZL1 it does not worth 90 000 CAD. (In my opinion)

I am sure the GT500 will be awesome but I am afraid to see it’s price in Canada.

70 000 USD is 91 000 CAD which is the price of the GT350R with the option..

Can’t wait to see it!

GM could always drop the LT5 into the Camaro if they want to. I would also suspect that Ford sticks with the A10 since they invested a ton of money into it and already packages well in the Mustang. The DCT may work, but was designed for a mid engine transaxle setup.

Yeah I really don't get that choice in trans. Most companies are moving their higher torque vehicles away from DCT and ford is moving to them?

Ford dealers love their ADM! This one will be $20-30K over, what a joke

Then Ford’s dealer can keep them. Simple as that for me.

Just because it says 7 to indicate a particular gear, it doesn't mean it's got the DCT considering they have the 10 spd auto.

I highly doubt it will be DCT, but if it does wow! I bet it will just have an A10.
