Quote:
GM has taken a step to battle Ford's much-loved Boss 302 Mustang with the new 2013 Camaro 1LE. Slotted below the ZL1, but above the standard SS, the 1LE includes an upgraded suspension with new dampers, sway bars, a tower brace, and a wheel and tire setup based on the ZL1. Other changes include a new close ratio six-speed Tremec transmission, as well as unique interior and exterior treatments.
Pricing will come in below $40,000, and Chevy is looking to have the 1LE approved for competition in SCCA's touring class.

The Camaro 1LE combines the best elements of the SS and ZL1 to take road-racing performance to a whole new level,” said Al Oppenheiser, Camaro chief engineer. “That the 1LE breaks the three-minute lap at VIR puts it in the upper echelon of performance cars. That it starts under $40,000 makes the Camaro 1LE one of the most affordable, most capable track-day cars offered by any manufacturer

I heard Dodge was looking at revamping the Challenger platform since they realize that it needs to be a lot lighter/smaller to compete.

I read that as well, but I read they were considering dropping the challenger, and bring out a 'cuda of sorts
