General Motors Corp. Chairman Rick Wagoner is expected to announce the resurrection of the Chevy Camaro muscle car in a speech Thursday.
The auto industry has been buzzing with speculation about GM's plans for the Camaro ever since the carmaker wowed the crowds at the 2006 North American International Auto Show in January with a 400-horsepower concept.
The production version could be built as early as 2008 and will offer three engines, a V-6 and two V-8's, according to people familiar with the plans who spoke to the Detroit Free Press.
The Camaro was introduced in 1966 as the answer to the Ford Mustang, and it prowled America's streets and drag strips until production ended in 2002.

Im guessing the two V-8's will be the 303 hp and the 400hp LS2. After hearing this I may start putting money back. Im going for the 400 hp. LS2!

it would be cooler to see LS2 and LS7 - this would make a maro competetive to stang or shelby - whatever they wanna call it then
