I agree gas price is high but that only thing that will make a large difference is if a large number of people around the world made a concious effort to conserve energy on a regular basis. Anyway my point is lets get the rest of the world into small hybrids because we need all the gas we can get for the Camaro population.

You other question, I will consider a high output V6 if it has a substantially better MPG rating and gas is in the $4.50 range. Otherwise I'll just be driving the V8 nicely most of the ime and have the fun with it a little less.
I don't think that the V6 will get that much better mileage than the base V8. Possibly ~10% at the most. And there is no word on there being the LS3 in the Camaro . . . yet. And as far as gas prices being high, based on inflation and improved mileage it will cost less to fuel a ~400 hp car.
