Its not gunna be 2 tons. Target is 3600lbs. You just can no longer make a light weight car now that there are so many crash standards, saftey standards, standard air bags, and other electronic systems that need to keep you safe.
The Camaro team is working hard on cutting pounds, shedding weight, while still giving us a platform to build a serious performance car on. Its not like they are building a cheap compact car, they are making a performance car. I would assume that Camaro's weight will be on par with Mustang, and probably lighter when Ford adapts IRS for the next gen Mustang.
