If you want GM to engineer an entirely new V8 just for the Camaro, be prepared to pay. It's not like the first Muscle Car Era (60's/70's) where you had ~4-5 choices of V8 power and each upgrade would cost you a whole ~$100. The Camaro is priced too high as it is, IMHO. When the 6th Gen came out, I priced an exact match of my '11 (2SS convertible, manual) just for the heck of it. The sticker was $10k more than the sticker on my car. Talk about a punch in the face. I'd love to see a handful of V8 engine options (or Camaro exclusivity), but "sticker shock" would increase tenfold.
