True. Places the base in 1SS territory at MSRP. BUT, Z plan still takes a good chunk out of that and makes it a fight between a 2LT and a GT.
302ci 400/375 vs 304/275. Unless they decide to turbo the 3.6 LLT to keep in step with the Ecoboost motor, I could reconsider; but cost could still be a factor. Z-Plan is a really big thing about this decision guys.

As I said, I'm waiting on the 302/5.0L powerplant being dropped into the GT in 2010. Even LS Camaros are subject to 'tard dealer price premiums, which are continually steering this money-strapped soon to be college grad away from the Camaro for the time being.

I will be picking up a used 2010 Camaro 1SS though within the next 5 years; I've said this over and over. So don't fret guys, I haven't given up on the Camaro. Times aren't right for me to buy it unlike the Mustang. And look on the bright side, kids. You know where to go to flog a mustang and test your muster against a new Ford without dealing with snooty 'stangers that don't know the definition of sportsmanship.

I really can't tell much diff between the 2 gens.

That's because there really isn't via sheet metal. The suspension and handling were the latest generation improvements. The 302 is going to upgrade the powerplant in '11 and after that the S-197 is going to be around for the forseeable future for Ford. Much like Zeta has been saved by Henderson for use in the Camaro for that same time period. It's now a game of who can handle better as well as straight line runs.
