2016 Alpha platform Camaro

Jordo!

I like it more the more I see it, but I'm guessing the V8 is going to be waaaaaaay more than the Z.

The V6 will probably be in the Z35 ballpark. If it's the about same price, it comes down to preference.

GM said the first year pricing will look very similar to current pricing
It is also said that unlike Mustang. Chevy is not limiting the optioning to the Chevy base cars. You will be able to option out a turbo 4, a v6 and v8 the same way.
Chevy also focused on a huge variety of in-house aftermarket to support Chevy this generation. I think they are hoping to make their extra cash in the in-house aftermarket?

I think the 4 and 6 will only be $1000-2000 difference in price

I'd be surprised if they're that close -- you get a LOT more power with the V6. No one will buy the turbo 4.

Although looking at current pricing on Edmunds, they already came close to the Z on price and power for the V6, and the V8 was only a few grand more.

Hmm.

I'd be thinking about this myself if they offered a trans-am firebird...

Well, and I also prefer a two-seater.

The mod potential is much greater on the 4. I think the overall reasoning for the turbos in both mustang and camaro is the hopes of gaining 150hp with $3,000 after parts and tune. Being Z drivers we know it's a bitch modding an NA v6. NA V8's have more potential with NA parts. V6 engines don't get far in the mod arena without laying down a dozen grand in aftermarket turbos and engine forging. Young folk want to hear screaming BOV's and aftermarket exhausts on howling 4's. The v6 is for the daily driver who appreciates, fuel econ, camaro style and handling.

I think Chevy intends to sell lots of aftermarket engine parts for the 4 and 8. If you've ever driven an ATS performance pack car? You'll see why the 2.0 is desireable. I prefer it over the 3.6 even though the 3.6 is faster in the Caddy.
