It has the LS3(stick) or the 6.2 with AFM( auto) V8. Not much looks wise. The Z28( if it hasn't been killed) will be the radical looking Camaro.

At launch the SS is the big dog, no Z28 as of now (don't know if it is coming). SS has the V-8, Brembos, 20" wheels etc.

Isn't the Z28 a class below the SS? At least that's how all the other camaros used to be. I don't understand why the Z28 would be the radical looking version.

The Z28 would be higher then SS this time. That should be what the Z28 would look like( besides the rims and the paint job since that is Bumblebee in the 2nd Transformers). But, their has been talk about it being killed. It would of used the LSA or LS8( another S/C 6.2 V8 deratitive)

Looks as though the SS just has slight differences, such as a lip spoiler and a hood vent.
