      Wow

      Today at school, chevy brought over a 2SS camaro and the cruze, got some pics on facebook, I sat in the camaro and did not want to get out, what an amazing car, the cruze was not too bad, lots of room, quite an improvement over the cobalt, it was only the N/A 1.4 though, but that camaro

      Chevrolet doesn't offer the 1.4 N/A in the US. that would've been the 1.8L N/A, which has the same output as the 1.4L Turbo
      - 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Z34 - LQ1 3.4L DOHC 24 valve semi-hemi V6, 210 HP, 215 ft-lbs of torque, 4T60e 4 speed automatic with O/D.... 123,000+ miles. Slowly resto-modding it.

      Both engines have roughly the same horsepower but the 1.4 turbo has alot more torque then the 1.8, this is the biggest difference between the 2 engines.

      1.8 = 136 hp at 6300 rpms and 123 torque at 3800 rpms

      1.4T = 138 hp at 4900 rpms and 148 torque at only 1850 rpms

      Camaro story: there's a show "Canada's Worst Driver" that used a brand new (v6, I think) Camaro for the 'contestant' driving tests. It was trashed by the end of the first episode. Cringe-worthy.



      I've only seen one Camaro in person so far, believe it or not.

      That makes me want to cry. Rims are a dead giveaway to it being a V6 model. But to destroy a Synergy Green one? SACRILEGE!

      I drove a synergy green camaro in lab at my school(theres a post on here somewhere about it). I actually couldn't wait to get out of it. I love the looks of the new camaro, but that car has a very narrow field of view and four directions of blind spots. Ill just stick with my '00 camaro
      E-Teeecchhhhhhh!!!!!

      alot of gm cars have terrible blind spot issues, specifically their 2 door models (newer). You learn to look around them.
