Well, if the can cram the LT4 in the ATS, then that bodes well for a 6th Gen Camaro on the same platform.

FenwickHockey, any info out there on a TT LT and DCT?

"What's not getting the LT4 is the new Cadillac CTS-V. Instead, it gets a new twin-turbo version of the Corvette’s LT1 V-8, an engine that's also slated for the next Corvette ZR1. Additional plans call for seven-speed manual, an eight-speed auto, and a dual-clutch transmission, though that quick-shifting gearbox probably won’t arrive until early 2015."

The 6th Gen SS is going to be a fun car. I am thinking 3500 lbs-ish and a 450hp/450tq LT1 from the factory.

It kind of seems like they're just telling people what they want to hear. "Hey everybody, there's a bunch of monster engines coming for every car imaginable." I'll believe it when I see it.

Twin turbo make sense for the CTS-V since the E63 and M5 are using them as well.

MT said the same stuff almost a year ago....

I mean, Elmiraj supposedly has a TTV8.

I guess if GM wanted to do something like that, the precedent is there.

There info seems a little off. I just saw an ATS-V at the San Diego auto show a couple weeks ago. GMs brochures said 410hp from the V6TT

There is no ATS-V currently. You saw an XTS Vsport.

That's been floating around for a while. It almost didn't make it for the C6.

Sorry, but it wasn't the ATS-V. That bad boy is still on the way!

Anyways...

Not sure I believe it either, but all the speculation sure is fun.
