They are revisiting history, and bringing a stripper back. Purpose built, like the true COPO car, or factory racers.. as in the glory days. It's kind of cool to think about. It's a modern one off in my mind...like the ZL1,....oh yes you did!!! Chevy did it again...awesome Chevy!

Well stated. Many not experienced in that saga of history don't understand. They have built a model now for just about ANY niche. ANY. A nice way to end the Gen 5 Icon. 2012-2014 will be looked at almost like 1968-1970. Now if 2015 and Gen 6 brings more to the table, it's icing on the cake. Drag strip and Track Ready cars were rare "back when"... Suspensions back then were primitive compared to what we have today. The Z/28 and ZL1 names certainly live up to the historical expectations. Thank you Chevy. Thank you.
