No idea, but I do know that the 6.2L, 6 Spd trans, and 3.73 gears work great in my Silverado, and is a great combo!

I wish the name was different so IMO they haven't started it off right. Hopefully the styling changes that for me.

Here is where I saw it at: http://www.jayski.com/teams/chevy.htm
Chevy to replace Impala in 2013 with another Chevy brand: Chevrolet is developing a new car with a new name for its 2013 NASCAR entry, replacing the Impala used by Team Chevy, and plans to eventually market and sell the new model to consumers. The dealership and racing versions of the car will be unveiled this year, after the New York auto show in April, spokesman Monte Doran said. The new car will use a nameplate not currently in Chevy’s lineup. Neither the car nor its name will be a derivative of an existing one, such as the new Malibu or the upcoming redesigned Impala, Doran said. General Motors wouldn’t reveal details. “We are keeping the wraps on the new car for now and will continue to prepare for next season by testing camouflaged vehicles,” Jim Campbell, vice president of Chevrolet performance vehicles and motorsports, said in a statement. “We know that Chevrolet fans are eager to see the new race car, and we hope that the prospect of being able to own one just like it will make the wait a little more bearable.”
The new car may be a version of the Chevy Caprice currently imported from Australia for U.S. police forces. Inside GM, a plan to develop a Chevy performance sedan like the Caprice for consumers was on-and-off in recent years because of concerns that it wasn’t a high-profit vehicle, people familiar with the situation said. Australia’s Holden brand currently offers consumers a variation on the U.S. Caprice. Along with developing the new performance sedan, GM is redesigning the current Impala, which will be built at the Detroit-Hamtramck plant and is expected to hit showrooms by spring 2013. The automaker is also rolling out a redesigned Malibu.(Detroit Free Press, more at MotorTrend and a past post at AutoWeek)(3-13-2013)
I did read it somewhat wrong though. It just says after the auto show, not at the auto show...

When are they going to reveal this car? In March I read it was going to show up at the New York International Auto Show, but that didn't happen...
It should show up next year at the 2013 Daytona 500.
I thought I read in that article somewhere that it would debut at the Auto Show. Maybe it was a different one I read or maybe I read it wrong.

One of GM's problems is they want to much for their vehicles. Ford is even worse.

I see more layoffs and Economic Turmoil.

Worry about quality and the rest will come.

Love the back-up camera so you can see the look on the Prius driver's face as you accidentally imprint her hood, windshield and roof with all-terrain tire tracks.
Lol! That camera is nice to have. It's gonna work good for backing up to my trailer.

Thanks guys! Mileage isn't bad so far for the 6.2 its Averaging 15.2 my 09 5.3 with AFM was getting 16.3. The AFM didn't work for me around here because of all the hills, it would kick in and out alot, and made the truck bog down and feel underpowered. The 6.2 6 spd Trans, and 3.73 Gears are perfect I love it! As for power and torque it's a BEAST!

Just purchased a 2011 Silverado 6.2 with the NHT Max Trailering Package last Wednesday. The truck is perfect and smooth in every way. I had an 09 with the 5.3 & 4spd trans that I traded for this truck. I was having some trouble with it lately so I decided to trade up. I looked at other Brand's, but I couldn't find anything I liked as much as GM's Trucks. Here are some pictures:

There a bunch of idiots for killing Pontiac in the first place. Their even bigger idiots for not dumping the Impala, and bringing the G8 over to Chevrolet as a Caprice! Someone should be canned for that decision!

Id like to have a new Sonic
-
The new platform name for the GM Trucks is K2

Gm is happy with the Cruze, but every review Ive read about the car hates it. They complain about the engine being thrashy and powerless even though it has a Turbo on it. Im just glad its still selling good with these bad reviews.
-
Oh yea now there ok with it, but when they were number 1 thats all you ever heard about. I would love to see them sink, but that wont happen.

Lower the price.

I like the overall look, and like the front except for the plastic fog light covers. I don't like the black antenna sticking up, and the tail lights look a little like a Kia, so I not sold on those. But overall the exterior is good. Interior looks good, finally GM has a class competitive to class leading interior. Although they better have plans for a touch screen navigation system, because young people will like that, and younger people are going to be buying this car. They need to offer something close to Sync.
Big props to making it 6-speed auto standard, 100% of GM products should have a 6-speed standard so this is a good step. Engine is weak though, 138 hp on the optional engine isn't anything to write home about.
Maybe in a car, but not in a pickup. I test drove a Sierra with a 6spd Tranny and it was a dog. The 4 spd ran alot better which is what I prefer.

Saw an RS/SS like that on Friday.
I haven't seen a white one yet, but my Finace and Mother did. I swear though in another 5 or 6 years im gonna have one.

I'll take a White one with Orange Stripes!
2013 vs. 2014 dashes
in GMC Trucks

I'll stick with my 11's lower level dash with the floor console. I don't really care for the new trucks interior except for the door panels, seats, and gauge cluster.
