Where? I can't wait to see them!

If they manage to rip off a 12.99 second quarter with the SS, it will be a popular car for the masses of "retro-heads" out there

I'm looking forward to seeing it in person. I'll reserve final personal judgment of the interior til then.

The Dashboard "Meters/Speedo/Tacho etc" looks really strange to me, that "square look" reminds me of a toy truck, it looks cheap and nasty...probably better in the flesh though?.

The HP and torque ratings, especially given the fuel economy, are nothing less than world class for the six pot.

No kidding. I'm getting it too. I guess GM didn't like having their sales videos posted on the web.

It's dumb they complained, if that's what happened. It was probably good PR for them.

Sweet. I quoted myself...

Okay, the numbers are indeed available! Very consistent across the board.
These are for the LS3 M6

Road and Track
4.6 0-60
13.0 at 111.1

Car and Driver
4.8 0-60
13.0 at 111

Edmunds (yech)
4.7 0-60
13.0 at 110.9

No 12's, but 111mph trap speeds stock. Outstanding.

Very impressive, now I can't wait for the Comparo test b/w the SS, Mustang, Challenger, and 370Z. With these #'s I think we have a new kid on the block.

damn it, I should have watched these videos a few days ago.
Those are nice numbers considering how heavy this little guy is, can't wait to see what a few aftermarket parts do to it.

I was just playing around on Chevy's website to 'build my own' camaro, pretty slick site.
Just wish you could see the leather options.

Okay, I was doubting the magazines, but now that Stephen Boone has tested it, we can be sure.

4.7 0-60
13.0 at 111

Yes, the aftermarket is going to sick for this thing. They've already started. I've talked to several shops that have done fitments for turbos, superchargers, catbacks, intakes, etc.

They're assuming that once it starts selling, folks will immediately mod them, and I think they're right.
