but it's still ugly. I don't care if they put a 500HP engine in a minivan, I still wouldn't drive it. Hyundai still needs to get their designs up-to-par with most other American cars. But I'd really hate for the Camaro SS to be the second slowest out 4 in track tests.. Thanks Challenger R/T for not even putting up a fight
But seriously, at least the torque # is much lower and higher in the RPM range than the Camaro, this will help us, but then again, the weight factor will hurt us.
All GM needs to do is offer factory options such as reduced weight seats, gears, and suspension and even with no engine upgrades at all we could win many more races. But I am sure they can eek out a few more HP from the LS3. The Vette has 430HP, so I am assuming whatever accessory that adds load in the Camaro that is not in the Vette can be replaced with Vette-like components to get the HP up at the crank... If GM does not WOW everybody with the 2012, I'm going to be pissed. Ford can do it, Dogde even does it to some extent with the color options and special editions. Hyundai is just going to thow a big engine in a crappy shell. Chevy did so much work with the design, they had better not lose on the performance-level due to complacence.
