Who cares? This isnt about the LS1, this is about the v6.

I'm not impressed. The Camaro V6 has already been achieving this.

Yes but now you can get it in a car from a non failing car company.

It should be about the LS1.

But since we are talking about V6's, the new Camaro makes the same power and gets only 1 less mpg than the lighter Mustang. I would have expected to see 32-33 mpg out of the Mustang seeing as how much lighter it is. I'm not impressed.

when you say ".7 less displacement" it kind of makes you sound like an expert since 10:00 am.

If a "failing" car company can do it shouldn't a successful one be able to significantly better it then?
