Re: Camaro Trivia

Possibly because of the transmission options, only a 200C 3-speed auto, or a 4-speed manual. Combine that with the optional fiberglass hood, and it would make sense.

Re: Camaro Trivia

Didnt say why or how much lighter I was hoping some one on here would know lol. I know the glass hood on my car is awfully light so that may be part of it.
