They will!

If not GM, a dealer or two may offer something "special".

I'm sure Baldwin Motion has it covered. This is going to be good. I'd love to see a face off of the Ponies on Steroids.

Read the comments, most of the people don't have much confidence in Hennessey's upgrade.

HA!!! Someone realized they has to quickly build up the engine and add a turbocharger just to get it to compete! HAHAHAHA!!!

Naw...that's pretty cool for those Dodge guys and that'll make a few happy. But, they got 426...and the General has the 427. Simple as that. Uh...wait...and the General has the 572...hmmmm...PLENTY of room to go.

Google won't search for Chevy Camaro because it knows you don't find Chevy Camaros. Chevy Camaros find you.

The original title for "Alien vs. Predator" was "Alien vs. Predator vs. Chevy Camaro." It was cancelled in preproduction, because film execs knew no one would pay 9 bucks to see a movie 14 seconds long.

And overweight too! I hope Henessey lightened it up. I doubt it though. With 700 hp it should accelerate to 60 in way less then 3.5 seconds.
