...and power too, right? The next Camaro need not be designed for 550hp. A car designed for 400hp has got to be a little smaller (don't need as big a radiator, if nothing else) and noticeably lighter than one designed for 600.
I appreciate the technical achievement of a car with over 500hp being available to mere mortals, but I don't think I would use it more than a couple of times. And if it makes the V6 heavier, that's not good.
Now I don't have a problem with a 550hp Camaro, as long as it doesn't result in significant compromises to a 300hp model.

That wouldn't bother me one little bit. I'd want a nicely packaged, fun to drive car with a good power to weight ratio. Bandaide high horsepower numbers, used as ***** extenders during cocktail hour benchracing sessions, are of no appeal to me.
