    Turbo-4 for WHO? Turbo 6, was exciting...

    This talk of a turbo-4 Camaro would be exactly for WHO? Isn't that what the Cobalt is for? Now the turbo 6 with the Jay Leno Camaro and the Cadillac lines testing a turbo-6 is exciting...

    I'm pretty sure that a turbo four would be the base setup...

      I wouldn't be surprised if it is true with the new alpha platform. I think it would be pointless in our 2 ton boat, but very possible with the lighter platform.

      sent from my galaxy s3. that would explain the errors.

        I assume the 2016 Cafe Standards has a lot to do with this. Got to sell a lot of the 4 Turbo's so we can have our V8's. It will be interesting to watch how it all unfolds.

          Im not against turbo 4's at all. Would I buy one? No but I am a V8 kinda guy. I think a turbo 4 could bring more of the tuners (no not ricers) into the Camaro world. More sales, bigger aftermarket selection, cheaper aftermarket prices?

            Interesting on the tuners bit...

            I would not be opposed, but on the flipside, I really don't see it belonging in a Camaro -- seems like a turbo-4 is for a DIFFERENT kind of car (Cobalt or whatever)...

            The news that IS missing, is -- what about the turbo-6 that has already been teased in the Leno Camaro and with the Caddy line. It's almost got to be coming to the Camaro too...

              I agree that it doesn't seem to belong in a camaro. However, with the new standards that are coming up with fuel economy, if that is what it takes to keep the camaro in production. Bring it on!

                Give me a turbo 6 Camaro ANY DAY. I'll gladly trade my SS.


                They once said "what's a turbo six doing in a Buick Regal?" And that was 25 years ago with old-school 80's technology.
