If that 3,600 lb figure is true, that is simply awesome. That's a gain of around 100 - 150 lbs over the standard ATS V6, so it sounds about right to me. For instance, a Camaro SS weighs pretty much the same over a V6 model.

What I'm a bit surprised about is the TQ figure. In almost all cases, more boost in these engines equals a lot more torque and some more HP. In this case, they gained more HP than TQ when compared to the LF3 in the other V-Sport cars. I'd have guessed at least 460TQ with the HP being 450...oh wells. Maybe they didn't really increase the boost, and made the gains in other ways.

Love the look of this car from a frontward angle. A side view is a bit bland. Still love it though, and looking forward to more.

Those rims are killer. I can see them being popular for the 6th gen Camaro already.
