If you want to buy a 6th gen SS with a V8, you should be starkly AGAINST the turbo 4 cylinder option because you'll be paying for that R&D in your price. It is an unknown, so that vehicle will have to be subsidized with the cars you know will sell (the SS's).
I'm praying this is just BS and there will be no turbo option.

You are praying for naught. ATS has 4 turbo & V6. I think quite likely a modified ATS platform to fit the V8 is what IS coming...but likely the V8 was already planned for the ATS. GM is not going to waste the ATS development dollars to NOT fit a 4 turbo in the Camaro.
