Anyone's guess at this point but given the GT is 30K add anywhere from 5-7K more is just my guess.
Mod wise it is going to be a beast It will take alot before the heads run out of breath.

Yep my dealer will be tired of me until the Camaro hits I will be test driving G8's frequently. I have no Idea what's on LS1tech's site about it as I can't get on it from here but
Both a 6-speed manual and auto are available. Gear choices in the options are 3.70 and 3.27
Wheels are 19" 5-spoke aluminum
Tire choices: QA4 245/40/R19-94w All season
QCZ 245/40/R19-94w Summer
There's also a code "N10-Exhaust,Dual Outlet,Stainless steel" in the options.
#11-White Hot
#17-Maverick Silver (NEW)
#18-Magnetic Gray (n/a on GXP)
#26-Sport Red (NEW)
#39-Stryker Blue (NEW)
#62-Liquid Red
#64-Karma Metallic (NEW)
#80-Panther Black
GXP will have it's own FE3 High Performance Suspension
430+ hp and 3.70's from the factory is going to be sick. DR's will be needed from the lot those 245's need a prayer.

Currently it's only in the vette but it will be in the GXP and most certainly the Camaro, Theres heavy talk of the G8 ST comming over so if it does the it will more than likely get it as well given it's a Zeta. If the Trailblazer SS stays running probably in it unless this TT I5 running around gets the nod. GM also has another sporty colorado testing on their grounds somewhere that seems to have a v8 in it as well but not even a rumor as to what when etc. and Settlemeyer just keeps saying"just wait and see wink".
