It seems you don't quite understand the context in which the auto industry finds itself in, today....

This generation Camaro was, in fact, a step forward...by building on the heritage of Camaro. It was not a throwback, minus some cues from past Camaros. Camaro still means something...and it's up to each individual to give it meaning...but and old French/English dictionary says it means "friend, pal, or comrade."

If an SS Camaro is ever equipped with a V6...you can be darn sure it NEEDED to be done to ensure the Camaro's survival as a nameplate in light of more stringent emissions and fuel economy standards. If it's ever equipped with a V6, chances are it'll still be able to melt your face off (V6 doesn't mean less performance, anymore). Finally...if there's a V6 SS...who's to say there won't be another model in the lineup that has a V8?

To each his own, but I'd request you give the idea a chance before getting angry over nothing.
