But, this is the one case where I think it would be perfect...
RS fits an AWD Camaro wonderfully.

Re: C&G on the 5th Gen Camaro
GM is putting their heads up their asses if they dont make AWD options on all Zeta cars. Didnt Ford just report higher than anticipated AWD sales?
Further, there's a reason Fbody and Mustang guys bitch that EVOs and STIs get lumped into ESP in autox and they run just as fast with less mods. I cant imagine how fun it would be to drive a 400 hp awd Camaro with 275s on all corners.

Remember the Holden SSX
I never really understood why they poured money into developing this car then never used it?

Re: C&G on the 5th Gen Camaro
i think an awd v6 RS while maybe adding something new and refreshing to the line up would take away the entry level of the camaro. it seems to me like one model having awd while the others have rwd is pointless. maybe an awd v6 would be a cool idea but it seems best as a all new gm car imo...

Z284Ever...
In the SSX articles, they never metion (I think, perhaps my reading level is low) what platform the SSX was built off of. I assumed a modified V-platform, but 2002 was when Sigma came around. Could the SSX have dipped into the Sigma parts bin?

AFAIK, that was pure V-car. In fact, I believe the donor car was a standard Commodore.
