Nice. I wonder if it will be limited edition or how they will do it. Chances are it will start at $40K+ This will be like a poor mans CST-V coupe.
So we can probably expect high 11's from the slightly lighter Camaro.
Official 0-60 mph time for the 2nd-generation CTS-V is 3.9 seconds, while the quarter mile is run at 12.0 seconds at 118 mph

According to Ed Welburn, GM's Vice President for global design, the on-again, off-again Z/28 is back in the plan. The modified body is done, according to Welburn. There is still calibration work to be done on the powertrain, though. We're still looking at about a year's wait before the Z/28 would appear.
Alongside this news, we hear that GM is considering doing a higher-performance version of the V6 Camaro, in hopes of piquing the interest of less traditional Camaro enthusiasts. --Dan Pund, Senior Editor, Detroit

I'm kinda in Charlie's camp as far as the 5th gen Z/28 thing goes, but I'm very curious to see what the final specs & numbers will be on this car. I'm glad its getting green lighted.
And a performance option on the V6 sounds interesting too. Honestly, if I were in the market for a brand new car today, I'd probably go with a manual V6 RS.
