Point is, the current push in the engineering departments at the OEMs is weight reduction and there is a lot of cool work being done in that effort. Whether their work results in some unacceptable sacrifice, again, is something you will have to form an opinion about when the car is released. But as a performance enthusiast I am very excited to see the factory cars shedding weight. Especially after seeing what they have done with the Cadillac ATS (same chassis as the 6th gen Camaro) and hearing some of the details of the C7 Corvette.
