Could be serious competetion for the SS.
Well the GT is already right on the heels of the SS thanks to its far more reasonable weight. With the new engines, I really do think it will easily outperform the Camaro trim level for trim level. GM really put themselves at a big disadvantage with the weight. We mocked the Mustang for its antiquated mechanicals, but Ford did a great job maximizing what they had and getting everything else right, and now that they have modern mechanicals they'll be number 1, no doubt about it. The only thing the Camaro will have on it will be the styling.
