Coupes have 2 doors. Sedans have 4. No such thing as a 4 door coupe, despite what the misdirected European's are trying to promote.

And the car in the video was a CTC-V (CTS-V Coupe), which doesn't have 4 doors.

lol i was just trying to answer your question. as much as you may disagree current marketing has created the 4 door coupe. i think there are enough 4 door cars with an impractical roofline labeled as 4 door coupes where a new class of car has been created.

"Hint" at Z28 performance level

If someone hasn't called it already, let me be the first: I believe the Z28 will have CTS-V coupe performance without the world class luxury interior.

This is exactly how it should go down:

Might be same power, but a bit lighter (less/lighter interior and lighter/simpler suspension). Same effect.

That's how it should be: optional.

Wow is all I have to say. Almost makes me want a Cadillac haha but man do I hope the Z puts down the power to trump the GT500 it would give it ultimate bragging rights and on top of that I think it would push the old school "muscle" rivalries back up to the top of the charts for sort of a long time battle gone crazy!! None of us know besides the "6.2L Supercharged V8" what the new Z may have but all I can say is God bless American Muscle!!

i like the idea of an 6.2 supercharged factory camaro but what happened to big blocks? or even instead of just throwing on a s/c or turbo, what about modding the crap out of an stocker engine the most it will possibly go?

Finally a more fair race instead of a 500 vs a stock SS lol. Wouldnt mind seeing a Roush, Shelby, and Saleen go against the CTS-V coupe though.
