Camaro Z28 (supercharged LSA engine) edition gets the green light
- Thread starter gap4annie
- Start date
hmmm, wonder if it will break into the 11's in the 1/4? (doubt it, since it's a heavy pig)
They'd have to seriously up the HP or drop some weight. What's the CTS-V weigh and run in 1/4 anyone know?
The moment the economy shows more weakness and car sales slump it will be axed. I won't believe it til I see it.
ROFL @ the pig comments..like the GT500 is a bantam weight..
Agreed
2010 GT500 3924lbs
2010 Camaro SS 3902lbs
add about 250 lbs to the Camaro for the diff engine, blower, etc
even with similar hp levels the gt500 weighing less should still pull. Especially with the 3:73s they come with now and a good driver.
the ctsv runs very low 12's and is over 4000lbs. So if the camaro keeps it weight below the 4 door V it should hit the 11 second club stock.

the fastest cts-v time ive seen stock is 12.1, in an automatic... the auto weighs 4280lbs i believe
Man...I just don't understand the haters on either side. I could give a rats ass about the dillusional Ford v Chevy bullshit that people get sucked into. People start talking out their butts and fail to use logic. The vehicles will be similar in power and weight--it will be the details that will make all the difference.
Personally, I'll be excited to see a factory supercharged Camaro come out. It can do nothing but up the anty for Ford's GT500. Competition breeds excellence.
I may end up picking up one to park next to the GT500. That would be NICE.

I watched a pulley/exhaust/tune CTS-V run an 11.60 on street tires. That motor ain't no joke.
Add in a few hundred pounds to the GT500 for the 2012 crash standards. Camaro meets them, Mustang does not.

Before I say I want one, I wanna see the trim options for em. I dont want navigation, or surround sound, or 200 way adjustable power seats for all passengers, or dual climate, no stupid nonesence bullshit. Hell, if they came out with a trim level eqaul to the "Stripper SS" Id prally creme my pants.
We'll just hafta wait and see!

my question: what will it cost?
being that the average local '10 CTS-V is going for $83,995, I think I'd spring for an '10 Z06 at $86,995 over either the V or the Camaro and have a more well-rounded, better-performing car. pennies in the bucket at that point.
The current pricetag for local SS Camaro is a hair over $45K. Christ almighty, a '10 GT is going for $42K+ around here. Where the hell do people get this money? 42K for a well optioned V8 Mustang?

I love the new V. It will definately be my next big car purchase. All that luxury while being a drivers race with a stock c5z.
Your dealerships suck. Sticker on a loaded (minus sunroof) SS Camaro is $35,500, and yes, people are getting them for sticker. A slightly used '09 V can be had in the neighborhood of $50-55k.
They're much faster than a C5Z :shrug:
I would not buy any type of vehicle from your area. It looks like they are raping everyone. The new V stickers for 65k and ive seen some slightly used one for less. New Z's are selling for 10k off sticker in some areas and 06's are in the mid 40s now or less. I have seen less for the camaro and stang also.
Ive seen a few people post their "miracle" 11 second run in their stock c5z over on corvetteforum. Other than that a good driver can hit a very low 12 which the V can also do. So unless your definition of a drivers race is different than mine how would it not be one between the two?
anyone happen to scroll down that link and see the 700hp blown and sprayed '10? the guy tuning, and running it is an old friend of mine. crazy on the stock motor/clutch!!!!
I wonder if GM has cleared this with the government yet.....also to be honest they better come out with some bettter cars first, as a tax payer I want some of that damn money back so they better make money of this little adventure
