2016 Alpha platform Camaro

If Chevy comes out with a GTA Camaro like the old pontiac... Would you buy the V8? Would you get the GTA Twin-Turbo? Or would you get the ZL-! version

If Chevy comes out with a GTA Camaro like the old pontiac...

Would you buy the V8?
Would you get the GTA Twin-Turbo?

Or would you get the ZL-! version with a Z06 engine? For $20k more than the other two?

i'd have to see specs on them plus body styling differences.

power would be the main thing along with what the suspension differences may be like how the SS, 1LE, ZL1, and Z28 all differ. but with the mag ride and all the other new upgrades it seems like there may not be such a big gap between the turning/driving abilities of each model like the current models.

then styling. who knows the differences each will have or whatever. lots of questions need to be answered for me once it's debuted.

I agree, MRC is going to somewhat level the playing field. Well the current 3.6 turbo puts down 464hp/445lbtq, 4 more than what speculated 460hp of the camaro SS. Say MRC can be had for both. And say you can get a decently equipped SS for 41k and the same equipped GTA for 44k?

i'd probably wait a short period to see what mods can the turbo handle. imagine if it's like a GT-R where breathers and a tune can net massive gains

then again the V8 can gain too. I just like the idea of boost lol

also youre talking a 3k difference. doesn't even matter at that point it comes down to which engine you want

3.6TT is the engine GM rumored to be capable of 800hp modified from stock turbos. Supposedly?
