GM just upped the ante.
----- Chevrolet is revving up the power on the 2012 Camaro with a new, more efficient version of its 3.6-liter direct-injection V-6 engine, General Motors Co. said today.
The new engine delivers 323 horsepower -- about 11 horsepower more than its 2011 predecessor -- and will be also available on the 45th anniversary special edition Camaro going on sale this year.
The more powerful V-6, known as the LFX, gets an EPA-estimated 30 miles per gallon highway, Chevrolet said.
"The enhancements for 2012 will deliver reduced engine weight and lower emissions -- along with the greater power that Camaro drivers will certainly appreciate," Ameer Haider, assistant chief engineer for V-6 engines, said in a statement.

Got to wonder how Ford will counter this.
