Ralliart/SRT/SVT/AMG are entirely different from SS. unlike SS those aren't a trim level, they are in-house hot rod labels. so for example when Ralliart does a car, they have the option of making as many levels of performance as the house will budget them for. But the SS isn't a special "works" team, it's just a trim level, so having two or more SS cars of the same model just confuses the situation. GM should establish their own special team and do it justice if they want to have the same setup and reputation as the established ones. using the SS badge for this, just isn't the way to go.
GM has a performance division....GMPD. They will develop performance vehicles for various GM brands. The GM brands will use them as they see fit. GMPD will develop Redlines for Saturn, V-series for Caddy, GPX for Pontiac, some SS models and a couple of "Z" cars for Chevy.

Some SS's will be the result of GMPD....some not. Chevy will have the flexibility to decide.

What??? Do you want a link to Bob Lutz saying the 2.4 has been delayed until '06?

Some of us here, have enough initiative to do our own investigative work and piece a story together. If there is something here that you find implausible....let's hear what you have to say.

There is no official link about a 5th gen Camaro......yet looky....we have a whole forum dedicated to it.
