yeah, i see what you guys are sayin. just a rivalry thing going on. i'm just used to that being more at the tracks and at the stoplights than on the internet. oh well, i guess we'll have to wait till both are lined up at the strip to really start the mudslinging!

 

I wonder if they know that they don't have a real HEMI...

 

2010. Mr illiterate.

And does it really matter when you're still bitchin about no Camaro next year.... and the year after that... and the year after...?

 

I am pretty sure that is what the vehicle weighs, considering it says curb weight, and not gross vehicle weight.


Yeah, I was wondering if anyone else had remembered that.

 

Hmmm at first I was thinkin Bugatti Veyron. But it has 1001hp so thats cool. No wonder DCX put the 425hp in it for the concept. Its gonna need all the power it can get. About that post on the C6 and Charger SRT8. The Charger stands no chance in hell! Sorry but the Vette is so much lighter and all around a performance machine.

 

Do not feed the trolls though it is fun to debunk their myths!

 

Oh dear God no please... How DARE those Mopar nuts get excited over a car they like!

Hero worship? Like the Camaro is getting here?

Get over it. The 09 Camaro is no lightweight. We love the Camaro, it doesn't mean everyone else should be thumbing their noses at a car they like so they can join you and adopt your opinion. I happen to like both the Camaro and the Challenger. Newsflash: BOTH cars are going to be heavy *** pigs.

 

Do we really need to pull out the ol' gems from BBC?

I especially loved this one, where he goes toe-to-toe in an "inside Camaro" knowledge match with Scotty S.

"Nothing in the pipeline" is most obviously suggested by the CAD drawings of the chassis.

We don't know that for sure. I am expecting the new Camaro to be in the new Mustang's weight range, model-for-model. No, not "lightweight", but no Camaro should EVER weigh over 2 tons. Period.

 

Ah trash talking.

2008-2009 will be so much fun

 

With big wheels and the sizes mentioned, I could definitely see a fully loaded convertible going over 4000 pounds. In fact, I've heard of 4th Gen verts that did.

 

Wheels will be 19/20's right? I'd like to have 18's all around myself with some taller rubber and if that means aftermarket for me, so be it. In addition, the weight loss nuts out there can always shell out 5 grand for a set of aftermrket HREs or something light . Loosing unsprung weight will help both handling and straightline acceleration / braking too. Loosing sprung weight is more difficult than just swapping out your wheels.

The concept had huge dubs and wheel openings to match... nothing says GM can't shrink the size of the wheel openings a little bit and /or go with taller more practical rubber, so that some 19s or 20s will look fine. Will be interesting to see how this aspect of the car changes come production time.

 

Oh god , you did it now . U brought notice to the semihemi

First slogan for the Challenger outa be " More PORK than a Jimmy Dean factory "

I can see one of those hiljacks from the hemi truck commercials sayin that .

.... all in fun people , its a joke mmmmk

 

And to further the Hemi - bash, they're so damn in-efficient that they need 2 spark plugs per cylinder just to ignite the fuel !!!

... I'm sure my LS1, A4 w/4.10 gears is more fuel efficient .

 

I still don't know how DCX managed to f*** up the Hemi. They had a perfect model to use *cough**cough* LS1.
