2015 Camaro Rumors
 
According to our friends at GM Authority at http://gmauthority.com/blog/2012/09/...rful-than-zl1/ "Chevy Camaro To Receive Supercharged "LT4" V8 Engine By 2015, Will Be More Powerful Than ZL1".

This is based on a thread at Corvette Forum http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c7-g...more-info.html

What do you think?

Well, I DID mention a SUPER CAMARO April 2011, that would be the most impressive Chevrolet ever......

I would be pleasantly surprised if a Camaro gets the LT4 if the same engine is earmarked for the top Corvette... but you never know.

I was merely hoping for an upgrade on the 1LE to the LT1... but this would be even better if true.

Can't they use a new RPO code for the engines (if we're to believe that it will be an LT4)?
We keep bouncing back & forth between LTs and LSs.

Good news but ill be more excited to hear rumors how the car is going to be an overall efficient design in terms of space and weight. Gm nailed it on the Corvette and Cadillac ATS. Lets hope they nail it on the 6th gen

I view the apparent fact that they think they need "more power" as a negative. A sub-3500 lb. Camaro with C6 Z06 horsepower would be quicker than the current ZL1.

Maybe they don't "need" more power but when it comes to marketing it never hurts.

If the 6th Gen is going on Alpha I don't think we need to be concerned that it will weigh more than what we currently have.

WHAT IF, the 6th gen would be built in Bowling Green...expansion, yet it once had the Caddy XLR line in it..."performance division"....."american muscle".........vert tops made in bowling green (logisitcs?) The 2014 Impala is coming out early 2013.....the 2010 Camaro started early 2009.....soooo 2016 Camaro early 2015? Maybe?

I agree. It is one thing to use LT1 because "1" is starting over. But why call this LT4? Why not LT2 or LT9?

they already got that, it's a corvette, I for one dont want the camaro down sized, the whole idea for the camaro is to be some what pratical. I dont see what the big deal is with having a 3700# camaro.

and it appears GM is once again wasting too much money in R&D and is going to bankrupt itself again. They had a good thing going with running each generation of camaro for 10 years, they should do it again. Not this spend 8 years designing a great car and then throw away all that progress after only 5 years of sales. The 5th gens are still very hot cars, they have a lot of sales left in them. There shouldnt be any talk of a 6th gen yet, it should be very quite ,it will only hurt sales.

The real improvement GM can make to the 5th gen is to come out with a Z28 with a smaller v8 and a lower price tag than the SS, if you could get a striped down v8 camaro price in the middle then it would attract a lot of buyers.

Futhermore Gm needs to concentrate on making quality vechicles and improving their reputation for reliability while making small astetic changes necessary to bolster sales like what they have done with the 2013 malibu. this is how the *** brands are run.
