They only go fast if you launch them, once you use 6 launches, you need a new clutch which is about $5k.

Looks like the concept Camaro

Definitely one of the worst car "investments" that could be made today. With "real" GM ZL1's coming to the market, these will be ignored and just considered another highly modified camaro. Tons of modified cars on here making that much power. I agree, these will end up selling for around $60,000 some day. But, there's a fool born every day.

Keep in mind, their "750" hp is only 640 rwhp. You could build a car real close to that including the facia and the suspension for around $60 -$65k. Or better yet buy a "real" ZL1 next year and easily add another 50 or 60 rwhp with bolt ons and tune.

Our cars aren't supposed to be six figure toys. They're supposed to be the every-man/woman's hot rod/toy. What the hell is the point of making a car targeted at a market that simply can't afford to drop 150K on a car.

I love my Camaro and all -- but, seriously, it's getting out of hand. I don't buy in to the whole "1 of 69" thing. That might be nice for some, but that's not really going to make me feel better about wasting that much money on a rolling chemistry experiment with a computer.

Exactly. These were called the "working man's hot rods" for a reason. To price the things at 150k + is silly and to go that extra step and BUY one is ridiculous. I mean, at 30 - 40k, they're already fairly pricey; 150k? Really?

They had this one at the Camaro Home Coming in Oshawa last month. I can't remember the exact amount but it was over 100K, think it was 110K or 115K. It was a beautiful car but not 100K+ beautiful. I am at the tail end of a Supercharged 416 forged stroker build, with pretty much everything upgrade in the suspension and drive train and I am not at 100K yet. While it hasn't made it on the dyno yet, the expectation is 700-750 rwhp.

I guess when you have these kind of digs you need to charge those kind of prices.

Ouch.

Dang!

Overrated... IMHO

But for the 110K one you get the better looking SLP wheels... even though you can buy them now...

I like how it says the 2012 ZL1 from GM shares it's 6.2L supercharged engine with the CTS-V and the ZR1. Last I checked the ZR1 had a LS9, not an LSA
