I just wish there was a cheaper price point from GM to get the new v8 motor, then it'd be easier to compromise platform > bodystyle.
If we are calling the Camaro a poor mans Corvette, perhaps that's correct but the Camaro is not a poor mans car. You sound like you want a V8 just because its 8 cylinders while a "lesser" model would offer better performance than prior year offerings. Current day V6 and 4cylinder turbo cars are offering better or close to equivalent power/performance over their older V8 counterparts.
