It Would Be Cool If Camaro Concept Can Match Corvette C6 Performance But I Think 0-60 will be like 4.4-4.5 and 1/4 be like 12.9-13.0 what do u all think!

 

[OctaneZ28]

The actual concept car?
Top speed of 40mph, speed limited, lol.

Or a production version type car with the same specs as the Concept?

My understanding is that by the time the car makes production (if it receives the "Go ahead"), it will have a different engine than the LS2, so who knows.

But be assured. It will always be less than the Corvette so as not to "step on the toes of Vette owners."

 

[gavin]

Thats Why Im guessing 4.4-4.5 cause its gotta b slower then a vette but yet compete with a charger/challenger which put out nice numbers ........But Vettes are Insane Cars!

 

[OctaneZ28]

Yeah in production form, the top-level Camaro won't touch a top-level Corvette.

However, a top-level Camaro has many times surpassed a base-model Corvette.

I hope teh corvette keeps up its battle beating the viper!

 

[Gonna be a 5th gen owner]

the vette should surpass the viper soon but the camaro should be focused on beating the challanger and the cobra 500

 

[gavin]

umm i dunno viper v10 easly can make more power then corvette's v8

 

[Gonna be a 5th gen owner]

look at the current ZO-6 it has the same horsepower as the viper! I think that they are working on a vette that will kill a viper!

 

[gavin]

I Dont think Dodge Is going to let chevrolet walk all over there v10 beast. I love corvettes but dodge can do minor things 2 there Viper to smoke the Z06 i hope the z06 can keep out performing the viper but its really doubtfull i say Gm should make a v10

V12 > V10

Don't waste the time with a inferior engine.

 

[gavin]

:roxor: opcorn:

 

[DvBoard]

V12 > V8 in alot of catagories, but not in size. most likely the reason V8's are used so much more.

v12 thats retarted !

Not likely. The Corvette will always be a higher HP than the Camaro. With some tuning/modding the Camaro will reach it easily (and these engines are easy to mod). I just recently got out of a Vette, and know what nice cars they are, but they have a different target segment, and part of maintaining that segment is having the highest HP in the Chevy line out of the factory. It is priced for that, and they are not going to have a lower cost car with equal numbers (even though with the same HP the Vette would likely be faster in times due to its light weight).

 

[Gonna be a 5th gen owner]

good answer it is very true that even if the cars had the same horsepower the camaro would be a little slower from the factory. But like he said with some mods it could be really close!

 

[gavin]

yea i really hope the camaro beats out the challenger in 0-60 and 1/4mile

 

[Gonna be a 5th gen owner]

it should the challanger based on concept weight was heavier than the camaro and the camaro will most likely get an ls-7 which wi make up for the few less ponies under the hood on the concept cars

 

[SSMOKEDU]

From what I've gathered concerning the Challenger, it will be a limited production vehicle, and I believe have the 425hp Hemi. I've also heard that's it's actually longer, and taller than the 300C.

My guess is, a new Camaro with the smaller V8 may give it a run for it's money, but come up just short. Now, that's not to say there won't possibly be a higher performance Camaro down the road to do battle with the Challenger and Shelby.

V12 > V10

V16>V12
