1.4 turbo right now but trying to let them know that a SS 2.0 Turbo wouldnt be a bad thing

I think it would be a good competition for the over hyped BRZ :P

if this thing actually had some power, I could forgive the looks.. The BRZ/FT-86 on the other hand has no power but looks great!(except for the ass end) some of these companies need to stop tryin to put all their eggs in one basket

I could see a 2.0 turbo putting 280/280 then stage 1 put it up to 300/320

rear reminds me of a Z4 BMW. but i kinda like it. is it going to be RWD?, looks like it would be.

and that trunk is scary looking. looks liek the taillights would come up with the trunk itself.

Looks like the old BMW z3 coupe. Ugly boot looking mf. How cheap can an alpha platform go? With the ATS camaro and this they might be able to drop prices for all three a bit because of economies of scale. Now if they would just put the 140s body on this rwd platform it would be perfect

Remember people, this is a concept car. We want the RWD Alpha platform, not another FWD. The looks of this car will prob be toned down in any production model anyway.

I would 100% buy one if it keeps the price range I've heard and got a big boost in power. A 2.0+ 4cyl turbo rwd would be make this car awesome! This is the type of car that I've wanting the to make for years, but everyone on hear sleaze said keep dreaming GM will never do something like that.

The more i see the 130r, the more i like it. Honestly, if it came out tomorrow (ok well next wednesday after i close on my new house) I would have it in my garage, with the contingency that it comes with a powerplant similiar to the LNF and was under 3100 lbs.

I agree with ford and all his conditions. Plus it needs to maintain all the little neat features the cobalt SS/TC boasts such as NLS/RPD/TrunkBattery. Stage kits and more stage kits that maintain warranty aswell.

Grab the motor from the regal GS, keep this car under 3000 lbs and rwd, and you just might get me back into a Chevy again.
