In fact it would cost more to remove the light weight components from the ATS and reengineer then with heavier components for the Camaro. Obviosly some suspension items for each car will be custom for that vehicle but it wont add 200lbs to car. The engine and trans will be the biggest weight gainers, minor suspension gains will be offset by lighter wheels and less doors.

If ATS started at $38k it would've been laughed out of the market in its first month.
6th gen SS coming in at 3400 lbs would pretty much be a miracle.
