Specs are easy to find. Shorter, narrower, lower and lighter. A completely new platform. This isn't a refresh or minor update, but a completely new car, ground up.

Mind you, you could all be being...

The new Caddy IS a ZL-1 in drag, right? So all they need to do is drop a Camaro body on it and there you go. The engineering has been done!
I can't see them not doing it.

I hate to post the obvious, but it's a 5th gen with make-up. Looks at the roof line and windows. 5th. Gen.

The 6th, we know, will be smaller and on a new platform.

So what does the T4 car tell...

Any ZL1s in the UK?

The subject covers my question really ;)

To be a bit more detailed, I've been after a Camaro since the concept was shown in 2006. I've never really been in a position to do it, and I've been happy...

Yes, the font has changed and the numbers go higher - it doesn't look great in the UK, but I cannot say for certain if you get the same dash on the continent.

Edit: Ours goes up to 200MPH I think...

Yep - I'd be all over the ZL1 if it could be had here. I'm seriously tempted to import one - but it does make it a £60k car (more like $85k I guess) and that hurts.

I suspect TG US might get it but TG UK won't as the car won't be sold here (according to Chevrolet).

We're still waiting on the SS (the only model we are getting).

£1.40+ per litre (UK litre) for unleaded fuel ($2.18 per litre - not sure what that is in US gallons though)
We pay around £500 a year...

LOVE that. The black accents look far better now I see them in context. Would still hit it in CGM or black though :)

550hp fits perfectly under the ZR1 as well - and I bet the price does too......

Black would suit this - so the vents and so on aren't so obvious - I like them but they are pretty massive :P

Light washers are compulsory over here if a car has HIDs - they also must be self-levelling (neither of which the domestic Camaro has) so that's why they're documented as we're getting the "Dumbo"...
