OK, so I was a bit off on my Mustang numbers. A co-worker of mine has an 07 V6 and according to some website I saw, it stated that it weighed 3,4xx lbs so I went from that....sorry lol.

They were a bit lighter earlier in their life cycle before the coyote motors and changes. So you would be correct for a 2007.

All I meant from the 3,100 lb Altima comment is that GM and Ford should also be able to build similiarly equipped Camaros and Mustangs around that weight...so by that, yes I mean a 4 cylinder Camaro and Mustang. I did not say I wanted a 4 cylinder lol. I'd take a 3357lb V6 Camaro any day!!

The problem is the big v8 and torque. You need enough structure to be able to support that kind of power/torque output. It's not just engine weight you have to take into consideration. What you need to support a I4 is different from a v6 which is different from a v8.
I too welcome lighter versions, but for some reason cars right now have become extremely heavy. It's not just the camaro.
