I'd actually rather get my way when I'm not in the minority because I want thee Z28 to succeed and be a sucess in the eyes of the anxious enthusiast masses. Someday, more people will agree that a TTV6 is as viable as any V8, but they've got to get beaten by a few first.
I honestly believe that a TTV6 could go into a car like the executive edition we have heard so little about, but instead call it the Berlinetta. Yes, enthusiasts hate that nameplate ... but enthusiasts mainly buy the SS and Z28's anyway so what does our opinion matter on this? We're not the market. Anyway, start it out as a 2LT, include a few dress-up items, some additional techy stuff like HUD or possibly nav ... there's probably a market for such a car
