Here we go again, a disgruntled want to be Z28 purchaser? No.
A ZL1 owner justifying his purchase? Ding, ding, ding. It's NOT for you. I repeat it's NOT for you. It has very expensive parts on it. Parts that you'd see on racing GT cars which cost $$$,$$$. Again we get you want to impress others coworkers, girls, anyone, etc. and it's OK you don't get it...now just let it go. |

I like Mustangs but that's because I'm not some brand humping fanboy. I like cars, no logos. |

2. If she's that put off by the lack of amenities in a car that isn't hers, maybe that should tell you something. 3. If all she does is understand it - let alone the odd chance that she might actually appreciate it, she's a keeper. That you'd feel embarrassed to talk about it to your friends means that neither you nor your current circle of friends "gets it". That's OK, too. Now . . . for those of us who grew up with cars that were far more Spartan than the most basic 2014 Z/28 can possibly be and which didn't have anywhere near the same performance in exchange, all this whining about what the Z/28 doesn't have/isn't going to get is exactly that - childish whining. With apologies to Don Henley and Glenn Frey, "Get Over It". Norm |

1969 was the last year. 1973 was the last year for Z28. Z28 thereafter.

I'm 54 and bought the '77 new at 18. one in three of new '77's had no air conditioning. The firebirds were probobly one in 4 had no air. The h.p. then was so low that not adding air may have given a few hp- maybe not.

I think we can all agree here that Rikki Tikki just doesn't get it. Given he seems to be the only one, that is a good thing. The people that DO get it way outnumber the one guy that doesn't. I'd be worried about the future of the Z/28 if the Rikki Tikkis outnumber the real track guys.
Rikki, you keep coming back to cost. You must not understand how much it costs to have a track car that is capable of running the lap times the Z/28 is capable of. The Z/28 is a bargain for what it is/does |

I've changed my mind on the z/28. I will most likely be buying one when they come out, it will be a daily driver. Yes... A daily driver. Not a garage queen or track car, I will drive it and enjoy the #### out of that 427
