A redesign indeed will happen. Hope they get it right this time.
    I really like the new Camaro, but you are spot on about the weight. Everything really negative I have heard about the car is a result of it being such a porker. It needs to shed about 400 pounds to go from tank to pony car. Actually, I don't know how Chevy could make it as heavy as it is. I think I"ll look up the Caddy CTS weight to compare them.
    There are times for thinking, and times for acting, but the art is in the balance
