Lets do an XL spreed sheet
lets try to come up with what the Z/28 will sale for, will start with a stock 1 SS car and add all the upgrades to it, so lets start.
1 SS camaro = $32,635 Brakes Upgrade = $12,000 - less old 4 piston brake = $1,500 so that makes this upgrade $10,500 Seat upgrade = $6,500 - less old = $800 so that makes this upgrade $5,700 LS7 Upgrade = $17,500 - less old ls3 = $6500 so that makes this upgrade $11,000 Dry sump Upgrade = $2,000 is new carbon fiber parts = $ 5,500 thinner glass = $1200 New rear end and gears = $ 3,500 less old parts = $2400 So that makes it come to a price of $70,935 and i say add $800 for shipping and may be a $1500-$2500 gas tax. |
Brake upgrade, here we get the new rotors as well as the 6 piston up front so in my book that is a $12,000 upgrade, so now we have the car at $32,635 + the brakes = $44,635.00 lets go any one want to add info and price.

Rotorrs? A complete set of carbon zr1 brakes new from the dealer with rotors/pads/calipers can be had for about $8k. So at most add $8k but you need to take away the stock brakes which are probably $1000 or more so realistically it cost $7k. At the same time who knows what GM pays for those parts.
An LS7 maybe $12k but a LS3 is ~$7k so that is about a $5k motor upgrade. |
GM offically said the Z/28 will be the most expensive Camaro, so for sake of arguement let's start at a MSRP of $60,000 for a high end ZL1.
Now add $17,000 MSRP for the LS7 engine and subtract $11,000 MSRP for the LSA engine. That's a bump of $6,000. Now I'm at $66,000 And add another $1,000 MSRP for the dry sump equipment that is external to the LS7 and engineered into the Zeta Chassis. Now I'm at $67,000. Add another $7,500 MSRP for the track suspension and brake systems and I'm up to $74,500. Wheels? How about $1,000 more? And tires? How about adding $2,000 for the Trofeos? Now I've got $77,500. Aero body parts... Plus $1,000. Extra capacity cooling equipment, plus $1,000. And now at $79,500 And lastly, for the badge that makes Steve, Steve.... Plus $10,000 I come up with $89,500 with the Steve badge premium.... LOL !!! Destination, plus $1,000 Stealership markup, plus $15,000 Sales Tax, plus $9,000 Out the door... $114,500... Oh, wait a minute, you wanted Air Conditioning on this track beast too ?!?!? How about some dealer applied special paint sealant too ???? hmmm... |
Sorry, but you are putting cost on cost. MR, ZL1 aero...and some of your pricing is quite high.

And again, curious as to where you're finding someone who'll buy your used Brembos for $1,000. |

A new LS3 goes for $7k easy if you are talking a brand new long block. |
Why all the drama over price?? The car will be between $60-$65K...more than that, or into the $70's even and this car will NOT sell, except for a VERY limited few! GM is in the business of making money, even at a limited production model, this car needs to sell almost as good as the ZL1.
