Didn't people say that about the C7 corvette too and it gained weight didn't it?

Now I expect the camaro will lose weight bc it's going to a light chassis, but I don't know if it will be as light as some people think. I have seen some people here say they think it will 3600 pounds. Doesn't a Z51 corvette almost weigh 3500 pounds, I just have a hard time seeing a v8 camaro only being 100 pounds more than corvette.
