Looks: Camaro
Better engineering? We will have to wait and see! GM spent 'Stupid money' making the A-pillar, rocker, firewall, C-pillar and rear fender a ONE PIECE stamping. The new Camaro SHOULD be stiffer than the BMW which does not have that structure in it. Powertrains are a wait and see, but the LS engines are incredibly efficient performers that are dead reliable. BMW buys transmissions from GM for certain cars. The switchgear in my 2007 Tahoe easily beats anything I had in any BMW I have owned...and the Camaro is supposed to be even better inside than my Tahoe. I honestly think that the BMW will have a serious competitor in the SS Camaro. When you factor in the projected $10k-15k price difference...the CAMARO will spank the 3-series and IT'S Competition.
