The engine we need will be in the portfolio it appears. But the business case thus far is not. I think they (GM) will have to get creative to get the suits to green light a project. We look at this from an enthusiast perspective (emotion), the GM boardroom is looking for profit/volume (logic). It's just the reality.

And remember the strange comments from Reuss "I think that formula of beauty – and a little bit of functionality and fun – all of that is important. If we were getting back into Camaro, that piece of it is really important”

So what is he saying there? It needs to be more functional than a 2 door coupe to appeal to more folks, at worst a CUV and at best a hatchback. I think he's saying we can't release a low volume toy that'll serve as a 2nd/3rd car.

I don't know what to expect except a Gen7 Camaro is probably not a priority.
