If the next Camaro doesn't resemble an F-body, I won't like it...

Engine options. I want a list of atleast 4 different engines.

3.8L-Base Model
3.8L supercharged-RS
5.7L-Z28
6.0L+-SS

(Though technically, the Z28 and SS should be swapped, as the Z28 was always the top of the line in days of old...)
I agree about the rims, and that is a great setup!!. I would have the SS be the 5.7 Liter with a more compromising suspension and more comfort options. (maybe more T/A-like seats with that) A real "Super Sport." The Z28 would be the all out racer, have no compromise high G suspension, limited options, and the 6.0 Liter. All done by GM and GM only. The Z28 and the SS would be both the top models with different purposes. Thats the way it would work out the best.

I wouldn't dismiss Geoff's idea of an SC 3.8 as an engine option so quickly.

Holden Monaro CV6 is a supercharged V6, and there is a pretty big gap between it and the V8, and that's with Austraila's restrictive exhaust noise standards.

For some reason I don't think GM will start slapping on S/Cs on their cars. I think they'll be going all motor, atleast for now.
