Not if the Z28 option is not available in a convertible. Plus it's 14 months away.

What is a vert?

Dethroned as what? The most overpriced ponycar on the planet?

Breaking news! The "HP EDITION" is going to be called the Chevrolet "DogTurd-R" and WE ALL STILL WANT THE DAMNED THING! As long as it is the bane of all Mustang's/Challenger's existence (and it will be) I could care less what they call it.

I'll be there ,so I guess if it's there I will see it!

I want the Z-28 or what ever it is going to be called. A coupe, 556 HP+, 6M Blk/Blk for under $53,000. What Z-28 are these folks reporting on for the Chicago Auto Show!

It is hard to believe it would be anything but a concept car.

I must say that I am VERY disappointed that this vehicle wasn't revealed at the NAIAS in Detroit this month. I realize this is somewhat of a "homer" perspective but I really think they should have revealed it in the Motor City.

If the production date is accurate....it would have given the competition a HUGE amount of time to up their game before it even got here....much too early, imo, and I suspect they were thinking the same sort of things...

That is a very good point. I'm still disappointed though. You may be right. That makes good sense.
