I'm not crazy about that spoiler, I want some kind of duck tail spoiler, like a 1st or 3rd gen Camaro spoiler.

I would buy it but not in that color. Blue is a touch too light for my taste. Everything else looks really good.

I'm not specifically worried about the color, more about the overall appearance of the car. I think it has a nice aggressive look. The wheels seem to work well on the car too. I'm sure it's a photoshop job, but I like the look.

I would buy it in a heartbeat if I had the money just not that color! My son has got me hooked on the yellow because of the Transformers movie.

LS7 wont be around for much longer. Costs too much.

I'm not keen on the 19 or 20 inch wheels which will come on the car, but other than that the car looks bad ass. Agreed on the spoiler, it's looking like the GTO spoiler, which is basically an afterthought by GM... "hmm can't make this too much like it's Australian inspiration, let's slap a balls ugly wing on it and call it a day."

hey, quit pissing in my wheaties... :mrgreen:

i can dream, can't i? remember, most every motor that was in the corvette was later available for the camaro. i figure in a coupla years, like 4, the ls7 will be available in the camaro. only following what has happened in the past. but it would kick ass if it was immediately available in the 2010... the camaro would rule the road again. and the mustang, as usual, would be playing catch up. i don't know how serious dodge is about the challenger, which is why i am leaving them out of this argument.

I think the cameleon color thats on the camaro page looks great. If I got one it would be in that color.

The LS7 is a 7.0 if Im not mistaken. Both the 5th gen SS and Z28 will respectively have a 6.2 and 6.2 supercharged engine in them similar to the LS6. Just what Ive read.

The LS7 has more in common with the LS3 that will be in the Camaro then the LS2.
While the LS2 and the LS3 and LS7 are Gen IV Small blocks, the LS3 and LS7 use a new cylidner head design compared to the LS2's and the Gen III head designs are.
LS6 is a Gen III 5.7 liter V8 400hp
LS2 is a Gen IV 6.0 liter V8 400hp
LS3 is a Gen IV 6.2 liter V8 436hp
LS7 is a Gen IV 7.0 liter V8 505hp
LSA is a supercharged Gen IV 6.2 liter making 550hp+
LS9 is a supercharged Gen IV 6.2 making 638hp

Looks like 6.2 is the new 5.7.

Odd part is, the Gen V's will use direct injection, so they are looking at reducing displacement while maintaing current power levels, and increased fuel economy.
So the 5.7 COULD return. There is a large 5.X engines set up...
