New photos: Camaro Z28 Testing Against GT500
 
4 Attachment(s)
As reported on CAMARO5 HOMEPAGE.

Here are the newest photos of the Camaro Z28 test mule being tested and directly evaluated against a Mustang GT500. :w00t: Not only is this a GT500, but it's a 2011 GT500 with Performance Pack! That means it weighs 3750 with 550hp.

GM is making no secret of the benchmark they are attempting to clear -- the 2010 Ford Mustang GT500. This should help put to rest some doubts as to whether this test mule is indeed the range topping Camaro Z28 mode
l expected to be GM's answer to the Mustang GT500.

This latest sighting come on the heels of last week's spotting of the Camaro Z28 test mule:

nhra stocker 08-03-2010 09:53 AM

franknbeans 08-03-2010 09:53 AM

why cover the front when we ALL already know what it looks like???

mondain 08-03-2010 09:53 AM

Woot!

sangerbanger58 08-03-2010 09:53 AM

O Man I can't wait for this car to come out

codo 08-03-2010 09:53 AM

the thing I dont understand is why all the badges are covered up? can someone explain that to me?

what I'm most curious about now is what the actual Z/28 badges will look like...I hope they go for something retro.

gonna call the dealership soon and see if they can give me any info, at least put my name on a list to get contacted when this becomes official

BackinBlackSS/RS 08-03-2010 09:55 AM

Testing against the GT500. Yeah, Chevy's gonna bring a monster baby. Take it to the bank. :headbang:

Dealerships don't have any information on the Z28 yet. It's all just rumors and speculation for now. The most info is what you are seeing posted on Camaro5.com

Sure looks to me like it says Supercharged on the fender emblem :D

Synergy_9 08-03-2010 09:56 AM

Cant wait for this baby to get out

Legend 08-03-2010 09:57 AM

That side badge is too big to say CAMARO...looks like it says SUPERCHARGED?

Nice to see more and more pics of the Z/28...I do hope the pricing is good when all said and done though...I do worry about that.

Nobody knows for sure what the car is gonna look like. As fars as the badges getting covered up, this is nothing new. They are not ready to release final details. There are still changes that are gonna be made. If they show you now, it may not be what you see when it is released.

radz28 08-03-2010 09:59 AM

SCHWING!!!

LOL - it looks like the driver's getting on it in that second pic'. Great shot of the front brakes and side of the facia. I'm still worried about the Goodyears, though :( I'd have liked to have seen some PS2s :( Oh well, if they're good enough for Corvette, it's not THAT big a deal :D

That Cobra's right where it belongs, LOL.

Nice catch! I looked again and it looks like the SUPERCHARGED emblem from the XLR-V Door.

I wonder if the Z28 is IN the Bowtie, and that is why they are covered up?

Anybody else notice Halo's and black roof ditch mouldings on a red car?

AnnaBear@SpartaChevy 08-03-2010 10:03 AM

Oooooooweeeee! :popcorn:

If I could actually get that from the factory...it would be one hell of a selling point for me! :headbang:

Q's 91z28 08-03-2010 10:06 AM

That GT500 looks like an old car trying to play catch up with a new peppy Camaro. Can't wait for the Z28.

I'm wondering if the Z28 badge will replace the Bowtie on the rear of the car w/a smaller Z28 on the front grill.

nhra stocker 08-03-2010 10:07 AM

On the one picture of the front right fender the 200mph duct tape is ripping off so its gotta be Fast to do that!:D

codo 08-03-2010 10:07 AM

just think we could be dining on shelbys in a stock Camaro next year

SA CHEVY 08-03-2010 10:09 AM

Freaking awesome! Do they take a check? I'll take it!

GTAHVIT 08-03-2010 10:17 AM

:D


Now we know who's got the target on their back....

Those of you who are wondering how much power the Z28 will be putting down... I think it's safe to say we can start with the GT500.... ;)

Overflow 08-03-2010 10:17 AM

That is AWESOME!

At least 551hp but for insurance we'll round up to 600hp! That should work!

I was thinking "Supercharged", but you might be right.

They both come out to almost the same number of letters, so the width of the covered area could say, either or!

Does that thing got a Hemi?:laugh:

AUS10BMX 08-03-2010 10:33 AM

I think it says Camaro... Zoom in and look close on one and at the end you can see "RO". This car has random mismatch parts all over it, I doubt there really hiding the new emblems on it. It's just to keep everyone guessing and interested in it.

ron10 08-03-2010 10:36 AM

hope i can afford it.

I just hope they got the model with all the options because we've all heard about the handling on the newest model :yikes: I have full confidence though :respekt:

:word:People on here just TRY and read to much into stuff. I am surprised nobody has said anything about the rounded side markers. That would throw off the lines.

Yes that's the SVT packaged car. Look at the stripes smaller and closer together
means SVT package. Some guys do stripe delete because they want SVT but don't like the new stripes.
