The Camaro SS will be powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine producing up to 400 or 422 horsepower. (Buyers who opt for a manual transmission will get the more powerful engine.) All V8 Camaros are estimated to get 23 mpg on the highway.

This is the most sensible thing GM has done in years, excepting their steady brilliance with the Corvette. Manual trannie drivers are reliable speed freaks.

I had the chance to get an Impala SS a couple of years ago, but they're FWD and auto only. Booooring, and a waste of good horsies. I got a Mustang GT instead, 5sp manual.

My 5.7 liter LT1 ’94 Camaro got 28 MPG highway. That’s cruising at 75 with a/c on. It wasn’t worth much city wise though.
