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?

sub 3000lbs is just craziness! won't happen, I don't think.
That said it would be real nice to have the car weigh in sub 3200lbs. Even stripper 4th gens are around 3400lbs. V8, 6spd, solid axle are the standard Z28 items. front engine layout would stay as it is cheapest. Stripper cars are a definate must as well. Maybe solid axle rear w/ IRS option on higher end cars ala Mustang GT/Cobra of today although IRS would be over stepping the bounds into the corvette world.
Use some of the engineering lessons of the C5/6 and make it lighter and a tad narrower/shorter. I love the fbody, they are just so freakin heavy!
yeah, keep it cheap!
