I am convinced it will be close copy of this car. See Bumblebee 2 vs ZL1.

All I can say is....

T-Tops

I want my T-Tops cause I'm not going to blare my tunes without the wind in my hair, and I'm not too fond of convertibles.

He told me that was the best damn answer he ever heard.

I personally don't see T-Tops in the future. Maybe a targa for the next gen.

someone is stuck in the 80's. got your mullet still? j/k man.

believe me I loved my T-tops on my old 98 Z, but for performance they aren't something you want. to me the Z28 should be about performance with minimal creature comforts standard. but you can option it out.


a 1Z28 would be radio AC, no onstar, no nav, no 8 speaker surround, no bluetooth, etc.

a 2z28 would have the better sound system possibly bluetooh and leather.


but I'm just dreamin.

I know what you mean cause they'd probably weigh down the car a little and the roof is one of the main twist points when high toque comes from jolting starts.

That's why we ended up buying another 3rd gen (1982) hardtop that's sitting in our garage. We were going to build it and race it over the summer, but I chose college so I can have more moneys to play with a better job.

My dad told me a couple of stories of T-topped big block Camaros at the strip losing a top or two when they got off the line.

I am liking the idea of the front facia off of the transformers Camaro. That seems pretty cool to me. I also like that aftermarket spoiler that looks like the one from a 2nd gen Camaro. I can't find a picture, but someone posted a pic in a topic a while back that had one. Painted stripes also sounds like a solid option. Just hope there will be a blue color of some type available by the time the car is made, because I don't know what color I'd go with otherwise.
