Ok, if you recall, GM made a huge effort on the C6 to get the size of the car more compact to appeal to the global market. The C6 is now the overall length the Porsche 911.

GM, realizing the huge success of the Camaro believes that the name alone could generate HUGE sales numbers on a global basis................if it were just smaller to fit the narrow roads and small parking structures in most of Europe and Asia. The big RWD Zeta based car doesn't fit the bill.

So to quickly take advantage of the hot selling name, Camaro, GM will quickly transition to a FWD platform, Iota or simply I. This will enable a super Camaro that will make even Shnomac's dream of the not announced Z28 seem trivial. Imagine a Camaro that can win any rally right from the factory. Yes, it will be that impressive.











Cuz there isn't one Iota of truth to this story
