Not sure if relevant, but ATS-V Burnouts and Donuts can't hurt [VIDEO]

Here's the link to a Jalopnik article about the ATS-V. It has a pretty awesome embedded video. Thought this would promote some discussion and excitement.

Enjoy!

Very relevant. I'm thinking this motor will end up in a Camaro variant performance model. Maybe a 6th Gen 1LE. Same platform and plant so it only makes sense.

Now look what you done did, a V6 in a SS Camaro. I have respect for the engine, but I would think that engine would cost a lot more money than a V8. Maybe by 7th Gen, I could give up a V8, scratch that, I'm not ready yet

Let's not forget, this Camaro team is made up of Camaro and pony car enthusiasts. But they are also engineers. I couldn't say certainly that the TTV6 would not show up in the car. The enthusiasts will throw bricks if it does. That being said, if the performance is there, I wouldn't complain about the missing cylinders.

What if the 1LE stands on it's own model next gen? It certainly seems like it has earned that right as a package add on to a 5th Gen SS.

Just speculating here.

edit: Also if the 455 HP V6TT outperforms the 3860lb LS3 1LE in acceleration, braking, cornering, etc..... I doubt the true Camaro enthusiast would care that much. Also you'd snag a lot of import buyers here! *cough cough* wink wink, nudge nudge, know what I mean?

ive thought this since the ATS-V was reviled. I mean its the same platform and they threw this motor in it....why not put it in the Camaro? would be easy i would think.
