LOL very true. I heard an interesting statistic the other day, whether or not it's true I don't know, but they said 90% of the tangible things we people buy are on average 15 years away from the scrap field haha.

Thanks again, I bought a switchblade (or whatever the color is called) silver sedan.

 

After taking a ride in Venom's sedan on the weekend it's sad to see it go. It gives you the convenience of a 4 door with the performance of the coupe, and after 3 hours in the seats one way the back isn't terribly uncomfortable, at least my ass was still awake when we got back here and we didn't have to keep folding the passenger seat down and forward .

 

Interesting thing to know. Sadly though, it doesn't surprise me!

Nice, post pics when you can, I haven't seen many sedans posted on here.

I still want to see the pics of the one member who has the rally yellow sedan. I'm curious to see what it looks like!

2010 SS Sedan Deleted... my wife is upset

 

I dont know why you guys are all shocked....HPVO was put on indefinite hiatus, GM is closing plants for as many as 13weeks this summer, and the entire Cobalt product line is dead after the 2010 model year, wasnt a big stretch to come up with this. I just hope they put the LNF in a base Camaro.

 

I hope this aswell, but you know aswell as I do that it will never happen because it makes to much since for them to do it.

 

putting the LNF in the new camaro would be retarded. the lnf only able to get 31-32 mpg's in a car that weighs 2900lbs, so u want to add an extra 1000lb's to the engine, the mpg's would take a ****. gm already stated that they canned that idea that it wasn't worth the investment. mpg's suffered to much thats why theyr'e keeping the 3.6DI engine.

n e ways, it's sad to see the cobalt go. it was short lived. I enjoyed mine when i had it. maybe i'll get the new T/C if i can find one locally for cheap.

 

I dont think the mileage would suffer anywhere near as much as you do. Camaro doesnt weigh 1000lbs more either.

Where did you see they said it wasnt worth the investment? I saw that people freaked at the idea, so they just stuck with the LLT, I never saw that the LNF got worse fuel economy, nor that it wasnt worth the investment.

 

IF(and I mean if) it ever happened I don't think it would be the 260hp/tq version of the LNF but the 300hp & 300+tq "stg kit" LNF witch I think would be lighter and out perform the V6 engine option. At higher HP/TQ levels this engine can still make stock or better MPG numbers. So IMO it would not be "retarded".

 

umm cobalt ss 2900ish lbs, camaro 2800ish lbs, off by 100lbs, nearly 1000lbs difference. it was posted on GMI, one of the big wigs that worked on the camaro already stated that the idea was scraped cuz there was no plus side in doing it. it didnt achieve any better fuel economy. i read it several months ago if not late last year. it was a thread specifically about the LNF in the new camaro.

 

I believe you meant 3900lbs and that is for the fully loaded SS model from what I have seen. I would bet a LNF model would be around 3500lbs. If they put the LNF in stock 260hp/tq form you are correct there would be no benefit what so ever. I don't think anyone is counting on this happening, but it is nice to ponder upon the thought.

 

I remember reading it was canned because too many of the camaro owners where thinking back to the early 80's when they did have really iron duke 4cyl (90hp or something like that)...They didnt want to start with that image. But 300hp is 300hp...And having a turbo vs na your going to have more potential w/ the LNF

 

3863 lbs, something like that it doesnt reach 3900lbs, for the loaded SS. just under 3800 for the V6. like 10lbs under or something like that. i cant see the LNF weighing 3500lbs, 3700 ish yes. not 3500, unless theres some serious weight reduction. i'm a lil upset over the weight of the car. but after seing pics of one rear ended, and the rear of the car completly smashed and driver came out without a scratch, i'm ok with it now. lol, rather be safe then dead.

 

Did somebody say rally yellow sedan?!

i know engineer in chevy and im not saying names, but its been done they just dont know if its going to be preduction, and the camaro doesnt weigh 3900lbs or near that its more like 3000-3400lbs, gas mileage was about the same as the v6rs, plus boost is more fun to drive

 

You have NO clue as to wtf you're talking about. There were LNF camaro's rolling around Milford and they were NOT getting any better fuel mileage over the 3.6L V6. There is no big conspiracy. It didn't make sense to put the LNF in the Camaro for a great many reasons. Stop guessing...



Alright, the Camaro LS and LT come in around 3800 lbs, whereas the SS Camaro comes in at nearly 4000 lbs...

And please, why in the **** would GM lie about the curb weight? I'm looking forward to your detailed insider knowledge on this one...

 

Thats funny. I think some things are hard for you to comprehend.

 

I did!!!! I've been dying to see one!

Finally! I can die in rest!

 

No kidding. I'm sure GM (and Camaro fans) would be thrilled if the Camaro weighed 3000 pounds. The Mustang - the real "lightweight" of the V8 pony car field weighs 3,572. The V6 Genesis weighs 3,389 or so.

Camaro LS: 3780

Camaro LT: 3728

Camaro SS: 3849

(If you're wondering why LS weighs more than the better equipped LT it's because it has steel wheels).
