So the price just came out, at exactly what I said it would be, and the times were exactly what I said they would be too, Mr. Dragoneye HAHA, I will now have to go around with the obligatory "I told you so, I told you so, nana nana boo boo" to every one who called me stupid.

EDIT: For the record, I am referring to the people who said this would be a 70 Thousand dollar car not the people who thought it would be LESS.

hahaha Im with you on that one. Nobody wanted to hear it would be around the mid-50s for MSRP. Can't wait to see how many people ditch their allocation spots. hahaha

I had a bet with Dragoneye, and I told him I would make a thread to admit my ignorance and acknowledge how wrong I was, but I don't think this was what he was expecting to see in this thread!

Its still a great car, but it IS exactly what kind of car I said it would be.

Price is to high, you can pick up a base 12 GT500 for 46k if you shop. That 10k differance would surely buy some very nice aftermarket options.

Yes but I honestly doubt that many people will be able to afford the ZL1 AND it's maintenance. Sucks for all the folks who were bragging that they secured a spot and went on about what they will add to their ZL1, and now.. They are pissing in their pants. lmao I LOVE America!

Who needs to keep up with the Jones' every year? kaneda, take a deep breath...... r e l a x ....

I'd rather put a 427 in an SS with ZL1 performance bits here and there built how I like it... I'd be getting 100 more HP from an NA motor.

What are you even talking about? Stang is talking about those that thought the price would be higher than it is.

pics or it didn't happen. Where's the quote that has you saying the 'burg time and the price?

Z4me · 11-15-2011, 02:50 PM

I was just under 53K on my estimate. In my budget and I'm very happy and can't wait to drive this car! I've been waiting a long time to drive a
performance car such as this again. Actually my previous performance
cars would just see the smoke of the tires from this car in a race.

Thank you GM!

I'm sure you can go through my old posts

Or, you could just ask Dragoneye

Although, He may not be willing to admit it right now
