Default Saleen Camaro?

Well, with a recent OT thread, I thought I would look for some chops of saleen camaros just to amuse myself. But look at what I stumbled across....
http://5thgencamaro.blogspot.com/200...r-fiction.html
Now, to my knowledge this has not been officially releasted, but wouldnt this be interesting?

Here is an exerpt from the article:
Saleen: I hope I don't get in trouble with GM for saying this, but they're using a 6.2 liter 450 horsepower engine for the premium V8 in the 2009 Camaro and the base Corvette. The base V8 will probably be a detuned version of the same 6.2. So we'll just upgrade the 6.2 liter V8 to Saleen level specifications. We're going to upgrade the 6.2 liter V8 if we're given the legal chance by GM. Our base model should have around 485 horsepower, and expect our Extreme Supercharged Camaro to have over 600 horsepower.
Lets hope these rumors are true. For way too long the mustangs have had their blessed factory aftermarket manufacturers to help them hang in "stock" comparissons. Wouldn't that just be a slap in the face? Not only did Ford not give them the 5.0 400hp motor they wanted, their loyal Saleen starts supercharging 'maros for us.

I wouldnt doubt it seeing as tho they did do the Camaro in transformers and the new transformers. Maybe a special "bumble bee saleen' edition.

Yeah, Saleen built the Transformer Camaro off a GTO chassis.

All bumble bee was is a yellow with black striped camaro with some interior design and transformer decals. There is actually someone here in washington who took a 76 Camaro painted it yellow, put black stripes on it, replaced every decal with a autobot decal, even on the steering wheel. got yellow and black transformer seat covers, a disco ball and an air freshener that said Bee-otch or something lol.

yeah i remember after the transformers movie, people were making the beotch air freshner and selling them on ebay for loads of money, and people were actually buying them! id consider any yellow camaro with black racing stripes a "bumble bee", hell if it looks like it why not

im not sure about slp either, but i guess we shall see...
