GM Chief Mark Reuss Needs Your Help Designing A Cheap RWD Chevy

[paulgurley]

Chevy needs to make a small coupe 4 cylinder turbo that gets great gas mileage and keep the weight under 3000 lbs. and if they make the chassis as good as the fr-s/brz it will sell like crazy

The new Camaro is awesome but it is way to big and heavy and the worst part of it all is it is still very small on the inside.

If they made a new chassis and called it chevelle/nova/or whatever it doesn't matter, and kept it under 3000 lbs with a 4cyl turbo that would be great, and then they could base the new camaro off of that chassis but put a v8 in it. and the mustang would not stand a chance.



I am 20 years old and have a 68 camaro project car and a 95 nissan 240sx as a daily driver. I would rather put an ls1 in my 240sx then buy the new camaro because it would be much more lightweight and more fun to drive. (I can't afford to do that but that's what I would do if I could).

Many people buy japanese cars and put v8s in them because they are lightweight and handle great and the ls1 platform doesn't weigh that much more than a 4 cyl turbo.

My generation is very into "JDM" and as they get older they will probably stick with japanese brands. Chevy needs to come out with a light weight rwd car and change the game and take out the japanese cars.
