Predict the 455 hp 2016 Camaro SS 1/4 mile times
Being that this car has been completely redesigned, is dropping 200 pounds, and is going to be propelled by a 455 HP LT1...I am thinking 12.5-12.6 bone stock all for around $40k. And from what I have heard...the factory exhaust note could put some aftermarket ones to shame. If that doesn't get your blood pumping...you better check your pulse! #heatseekingmissle

With the 8 speed auto I expect 4.0 0-60 and 12.4s 1/4 mile, hope I'm right too.

High 12's. 12.8 is my guess. There will be a few folks who'll get lower times with a stock car, but they will be the exception, not the rule. Doubtful the SS sees a 200lb reduction in weight from a Gen5 SS.

That's a good 200lbs reduction honestly, depending on what year model. The slight weight reduction, the slight HP increase....we wont see low 12's....but 12.6-12.7 would be a very good spot I do believe, especially with the 8 spd Automatic..

People ran 12.6 plenty of times in the 5th gen and touched 12.5 several times...

Why do people constantly equate the ATS with this new Camaro? While they share the Alpha platform, the Camaro is not an ATS with just a different skin on it. What the Alpha weighs in ATS configuration versus what is might weigh in Camaro configuration is unlikely to be apples-to-apples. Last edited by titanfan; 05-17-2015 at 11:20 PM. |

Well we have to take GM at their word on this one until their word becomes invalidated.
As of right now they're saying 200lbs lighter...and I believe them. |
