I expect that Ford will weigh the "base" model, lacking Brembos, uses tiny wheels, has the bare minimum options, and it will weigh a bit more than the current car. Then all the fanboys will flood over to the Camaro forums and proclaim total domination. They will then place their orders and opt for the brembos and other goodies and wonder why they have trouble keeping up at the track.

Wow.......your really really hoping are you not ? I mean really...So by your logic, if you take the Bembro's and the rims off a camaro, it will loose 500 pounds. Wow..I wonder why nobody else has done this mod on their Camaro's yet ??
Hmmm lets see....
1. Same platform: check
2. Same body style :check
3. 2010 models ALREADY have 19inch wheels and the track pack and weigh MUCH less than a Camaro: check
4. New 5.0 engine weighs 10lbs+ than 4.6:Check
5. New Trany weighs less than outgoing trany:check
So....I guess the materials they used to stiffen the frame weighs in about 450~500 pounds ! Ahhh
Why did I not see that before !!!!!
