If I had to guess the steel gauges of the body of the car and paper thin parts were made in the name of shaving weight. When I first heard of the weight that chevy claimed they took out the first thing that went through my mind was that the nvh would surely be compromised, and going by the...

Pretty much what i figured--great performance out of the box but in their quest to make it light weight gave up a bit in the nvh department. Also it seems like they didn't fix the visibility problem. All in all...
It would be right for Ford to do just that so as to not alienate the customers of the '15/16 mustangs. With the kind of technology available now a days I don't see why not.
Yes but Ford will have first dibs on the tranny. My understanding of that partnership was that Ford did much of the core engineering of the 10 speed but in order to keep the costs down they teamed with GM to help produce it. My guess is that Ford will have a 2 year exclusivity on it then GM will...
I want to add my two cents in this thread for a sec. As a mustang enthusiast I have no doubt in my mind that the '16 camaro will outrun the mustang in a straight line and I'am not going to dispute the results that have been provided thus far. So round 2 goes to GM. But what you pro camaro guys...
Trust me i've been a very loooooong time observer/lurker and when the camaro mag times started coming I noticed it brought out all of the camaro fan boys in this forum. Some are cool and others.....not so much:/
I'am not thepill's operator so when are you going to get that right? If you and your cohorts are going to be so defensive of the camaro even as far as trying to belittle others of it.....why on God's earth are you doing on a mustang forum. Besides i never said the camaro was going to be crappy...
If you re-read the second to last sentence you would've gathered that I never said the camaro would exhibit those qualities but rather the possibilities exist. That was the thesis of my whole post and seriously you need to calm down when defending the camaro. At this point its all guesses...
So I guess anyone that talks or critiques the camaro in the slightest of ways must be enemy number one in your world? Btw I'am not Thepill, nice attempt at trying to bait me though. Just to prove a point i said earlier. A friend of mine owns the Scion fr-s, nice car and very light weight, though...
Hmmmmmm interesting thread lol! First let me congratulate GM for making a formidable lightweight with an emphasis on acceleration sports car. However this is where the praise ends. It seems like they focused way too much on shedding weight and while there is nothing wrong with that, they did it...
