Every aspect of technology involved in cars has come a long way since then, but 350hp and 3500 lbs was nothing to turn your nose up at back then, still isn't really, and the Camaro was far less of a boat than it has turned into after returning from its "hiatus". But I don't think he was trying to say they're comparable beyond having similar power to weight.

Right, and I am saying that even those "numbers" are incomparable. first of all 350hp@3500lbs. is probably wrong (For the 4cyl) but we obviously won't know until it comes out.
Also, Absolutely 350hp@3500lbs. is nothing to write home about when talking about an old american muscle car. However, imagine the same powere/weight ratio as a camaro delivered in as tight of a package as the FRS.. that to me, is something to write home about (Or "will be" I should say)
