Ok.........


...........let us repeat in unison:


WHAT Z28???


The script said nothing about "Z28"............ __________________

In the HP Edition thread... And later in that same thread...

This is a thread that is going to be very visible - and so I say to you that no matter what the car is called -- some will love the name - others will not. I'm just hopeful that once the car hits the streets, people will come together over whatever nameplate is used - and know that the Camaro Team put their everything into this great automobile.
Maybe it is smoke and mirrors on Fbodfather's side...but until I get an e-mail from him or a post on here stating that the car will be called Z/28...I will not believe a blogger or website sensationalizing to get readership. Fbodfather takes this very seriously, and he was pretty adament that the name Z/28 was never mentioned in the script at the dealer meeting in Vegas. There is a high HP version of the Camaro coming, yes...but I am starting to doubt that it will be called Z/28.

Ah true, I did not think about that.

Regarding the fact Fbodfather is not on this topic sayin' its not true ... I guess it's true ... :-)

Not if the Z28 option is not available in a convertible. Plus it's 14 months away.

Breaking news! The "HP EDITION" is going to be called the Chevrolet "DogTurd-R" and WE ALL STILL WANT THE DAMNED THING! As long as it is the bane of all Mustang's/Challenger's existence (and it will be) I could care less what they call it.

I'll be there ,so I guess if it's there I will see it!

I want the Z-28 or what ever it is going to be called. A coupe, 556 HP+, 6M Blk/Blk for under $53,000. What Z-28 are these folks reporting on for the Chicago Auto Show!

It is hard to believe it would be anything but a concept car.

I must say that I am VERY disappointed that this vehicle wasn't revealed at the NAIAS in Detroit this month. I realize this is somewhat of a "homer" perspective but I really think they should have revealed it in the Motor City.

If the production date is accurate....it would have given the competition a HUGE amount of time to up their game before it even got here....much too early, imo, and I suspect they were thinking the same sort of things...

That is a very good point. I'm still disappointed though. You may be right. That makes good sense.

Since it was tested in Colorado, it will be debuted at the Denver Auto Show...yeah!

I said the same thing at

http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...97#post2731897


Just makes sense to unveil it at that show, since they already teased the dealers that was released with Becky's Intel :D

Plus it is the LARGEST of the autoshows!

this isnt a rumor...it TRUE!!!!

Wrong, it's obviously going to debut this Friday at the 2011 West Virginia International Auto Show.

The Charleston Civic Center does seem a bit more classy than a Midwest venue.
