It doesn't mention the RS or Z28 trims.. and only shows one V6 engine.. is this the case, or am I missing something?

[1MileCrash]

i'm kinda surprised by the low fuel economy estimates especially since many here are pulling down high 20's and even some low 30's mpg with mods and no displacement on demand.

I don't think the EPA estimates are official yet.

The video does mention the RS trim being available on top of any other trim. They reduced to only one V6 for obvious practicality reasons. And the Z28 was routed to be announced and released at a later date after sales had begun of other trims, to ensure demand was high enough, I believe.

Sweet, good info. I think its the TR6060 transmission they've changed to now.

Yeah... it was something like that... They flashed the spec sheet so quick at the meeting I didn't get a chance to read it. I checked Tremec's website and they have no listing for it.

[Y2KArcticSS]

Here's one I found for 05-08 Fords, probably same thing basically...

http://www.steeda.com/products/tremec_tr-6060.php

[Y2KArcticSS]

However, it will probably have gear ratios closer to the G8 GXP

The gear ratios on the 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP:
1st: 3.01
2nd: 2.07
3rd: 1.43
4th: 1.00
5th: 0.84
6th: 0.57

...I would assume so anyway

[OneslowZ28]

when is pricing coming out?

[konigandy6]

when is pricing coming out?

A couple months.

I misspoke on my above post.

February 19th 2009, not 2010 is the official start of production, so us dealers should see them soon after. So probably just before spring time!

I was jogging through Paramount Studios when I saw the bottom of a rim covered up. I thought that rim looks REALLY familiar.

Ignoring all security I ran over and tore off the cover...

and there she was.

2010 Silver Camaro SS. This ones mine, I licked it.

Notice, no gaps around tail light lenses, and a AC plug coming out of the license plate bracket?

Interior looked pretty nice.

Car was probably there for the set of My own worst enemy? Christian Slater show

Drove back saw Ron Perlman in his Mercedes..gotta love LA

[Y2KArcticSS]

Very nice find!! Had I known of the Lick Law, I would have snuck to the dealership and licked every Z06 I could find

Wonder what the AC plug was for?

That's what I was thinking... perhaps it is time to consider selling mine!

Not me...I'm still waiting for a little sweeter deal (LS7, LS9, maybe in the Z28? )
