According to this, it's all RWD.

Did you not read OCII's post? He said that the sedans are AWD and the coupes are RWD.

My customer has a sedan ctsv LSA powered and it's awd. This is the reason why they outrun the ZR1 corvette in the road course by a few seconds.

I think that's badass, and the car looks good.

But that's just the sedan... just the sedan... sedan.

It would sound better if I was looking at you eye to eye, saying that in a whisper about 3 inches from your face.

I've found where the CTS can be had in AWD but I can't find anywhere were a production model CTS-V has/had AWD.

Do some early model camaro research before you say that. The ZL-1 was the early day top of the top monster car!



<-----------G..

You think the ZL1 name carries more brand recognition than Z28? Hell no it doesnt.

Wasn't the Z28 under the SS though? I'm not up on Camaro history and trim levels.

$35k?

It won't be cheaper than a GT500. GM will either shoot for the moon and ask ZR1 money and only build 100 of them or they'll build a ton and sell them for $52k.

This is all just to cRaZy to understand.

Until the 96 model. All 4th gen Camaros with a V8 were at least a Z28 but the SS was the top model with ram air, different wheels, etc. In previous years though the SS was basically a trim package like the RS but with the same drivetrain. A Z28 would have been everything the SS had but a different intake, sometimes dual carbs, cowl hood in 69 and the bigger wheels/tires.

Now the SS is back as the base V8 for 2010 and the Z28 or ZL1 will be premium models. The original ZL1 is ridiculous in value, they only made 69 of them and outside of a museum you'll never see one. The option was nearly double the price of a normal Camaro.

You would think that they would offer this car as the SS, after all, you can get the same damn engine in the caddy. Then they would offer a ZL1 package with a blower pulley and some reduced options to compete with Ford's more exclusive (read BOSS or Mach1) cars.

But this is GM we are talking about, they are tards about this stuff and probably think a racing version of the Camaro would take away from Corvette and ZR1 sales.

And the CTS-V isn't AWD and never has been AWD.
