Re: Motortrend - First Drive: 2010 Chevrolet Camaro V-6

0-60 in no more than 6.1 seconds?? Those are great numbers. Still, as the base engine in this car, I would sacrifice a bit of performance for measurably better fuel economy. With higher gearing, the Camaro could still run 6.5 with the auto, which places it a half second faster plus a couple MPG better than a V6 Mustang. Perhaps the base Camaro will have the higher gearing while the optional RS will include the lower set for faster acceleration. While a much bigger car, the Challenger is expecting 0-60 times of 7.8 seconds with the base V6/4speed auto. Strictly a rental!
