GM will only take a V8 out of the lineup if they can't get it to meet the new fuel economy standards layed out by the gov. This is why I bought a 5th gen, because I think this will truely be the last V8 muscle car before we are all driving hybrids...

BTW, you see the same thing with trucks now adays too. Manufacturers are pushing the GVRW higher and higher to outrun the mpg and emission standards. Why else do you think Ford killed the Ranger?
