I'd love to see something with the LS-6 or even the LS-2. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

For what it's worth, AW has also reported slow sales to-date on the Pontiac GTO, here.

Last time I visited a GM/Pontiac dealership, they had one GTO in the showroom and it was marked up $3,000 above the sticker price. So it was $37K or thereabouts. Hmm. I wonder if it's still there?

-I would like to see the LS1 Camaro look GONE. I'm sorry but I just hate that front clip. To round, looks like a catfish gasping for air (I prefer the shark look of the LT1 cars). It's not that it's ugly, I just do not think that it belongs on a Camaro. It looks great on the Sebring. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Once again that is just an opinion and you know what they say about opinions...
-I don't see them ditching the 6 speed. That could only hurt them.
-Larger Fuel Tank? Eh, I guess. It isn't THAT bad.
-Better seats would be good, but my '94's seats are fine for street driving, but then again I'm 20 and my bones don't creak yet.
-Better Brakes would be a DEFINATE plus! At least something adequate to stop a 3800lb (with driver/passenger) from a highway roll without warping a rotor to resemble a potato chip.
-I got used to working on my 4cyl Camaro. I take comfort knowing that the other 4 are under the dash if I ever need them. Chevrolet technicians will agree with you though, they hate working on 4th gens.
-Retro engine sizes would be cool. Because with a 396ci LSx block we could bore and stroke to probably 454ci. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
-The rear gear options will have to keep a decent sized pinion, so those might have to only be offered with a package for a larger 10 bolt or a 12 bolt (crossing my fingers now). That might be a pricey option, but worth it. Might run into EPA problems though. It wouldn't be worth an extra gas guzzler tax.
-I agree with keeping a stripper model low. I like stripped cars. Hardtops and crank windows are the stuff that my dreams are made of.
