Hooks up, but that exhaust sounds weak. It doesn't fit the character of the car. It sounds like a truck motor, I'm sure the DOHC in the Z will fix that.

Of course you got a great deal without even trying, there's no demand so discounting is the only way they can move the cars off the lot. Have you seen the sales numbers for the Camaro lately? The...

The way things are going, your wishes will probably come true. Soon the Camaro will be so exclusive it will be non-existent.

Just for clarification, 1975 was the last year you could get a 455, though it wasn't a super duty. 1974 was the last year for that.

The ZL1 is the presumed loser, so the goalposts have been moved. The C8 is the new competitor for the Gt500 since the ZL1 can no longer compete. Somebody needs the change the thread title.

It looks like an anvil fell on the back of a sixth gen. Not sure why they think basing the C8 rear end on the already polarizing style of the poorly selling 6th gen Camaro is a good idea, but it...

Maybe it seems like a fanboy review because he dismisses or omits any of the problems that contribute to the lack of sales to anyone who isn't already a fan of the car.

Don't forget Ford led the engineering on the 10 speed. That's why you see more Fords with the 10 speed and more GM's with the FWD 9 speed. GM led the engineering on the 9 speed.
