I'll never claim my friends are 'hooks'. All just casual conversation about non-confidential stuff...but I appreciate the thought.
I believe the only three things holding back a Z28 (if it were being proposed) would be a justifiable business case, CAFE effect (big picture thoughts...), and development time. They don't need to wait for the ZL1 to make real money before they introduce a new model...just so long as the Z28 can make its own money...

I think you're about right! Factor in the increased
cost to switch over...and it becomes a difficult change to justify...
