The 2009 and 2010 Challenger R/T's arent the same animal. They look the same on the outside, but inside there are a few ways to tell the two apart. Their engines arent direct copies of each other, neither is the suspension or computer.

Expect some changes in 2011, maybe a more aggressive stock tune to bring the HP and TQ up slightly to compete with the V6 Mustangs..but thats about it.

2012 is the model year to look out for, thats when you'll see some pretty interesting changes in the Camaro to respond to both the 6.4L SRT8's and the 5.0L GT's. My bet is that if the Z28 isnt brought into production, the SS's will get some boosts.

Heck, if they would just throw less restrictive exhaust on the v6 it would top the 2011 v6 Mustang in hp and torque. A tune would add even more, but isn't really needed. This going by posted 2011 Mustang numbers.

I agree that we will see some minor changes in the 2011 Camaro, just enough to tide people over to 2012, when one can probably expect bigger changes.

I'd be happy with Chevy removing the torque management from my a6 and a 100lb diet, lol.
