Allan - I'm sorry about deleting, but I couldn't stand the tone. It's one thing to express an opinion, but that just made me ill.

Respectfully...

oops. Sorry.

I need a moderator's moderator.

Long day today......
Edited, Nick's post just to completly get rid of it.

GOOD! I hope it does!!!

Looks like I'll be trading in my '10 camaro!!

As you and I had discussed before, I think the only thing I'd add to this car, would be a CAI, pulley and a tune. And if that breaks my warranty, I won't touch the car. I'm tired of driving "new" cars with no warranty. Dealers laugh at me

Anyone who wants to modify the suspension, shouldn't opt for MS. It's either/or.

Looks good, I get back from deployment December 2012, perfect timing. My next car will be kept forever, I'll have to see what the C7 looks like though too....

PYROLYSIS · 01-13-2011, 05:53 PM

I'm exited about this new model (whatever it will be called), but I'll be upset if they don't call it Z28. I know its just a name and that GM will come up with a good name for it so I'll just have to remember that all this z28 hype was created by us and that GM never even acknowledged this cars existence. I can't even afford an LS, so I guess I can't be too upset about a car I'll never afford. Looking foward to pics and final specs.

I believe you're right. CB, CAI, tune, and maybe a pulley. There goes the warranty, lol!!! I feel the same as you though, LOL. They see $$$ when I drive up

Good to know. I was hoping that wasn't the case, but aren't too suprised.

SSOOCH · 01-13-2011, 05:55 PM

So I don't want to start anything but how come no other dealership seems to know about this Z/28 news. I'm good friends with owners and salespeople at several Utah Chevrolet Dealerships and nobody knows anything.

Explain that!

DevilKnightFalcon · 01-13-2011, 05:55 PM

Am I the only one who thinks that "HP Edition" is a really stupid moniker. Kind makes it sound like "hey this edition has horsepower and the others don't". Idk I just don't like it.

They will probably do the same thing they did to the Cobalt SS/SC, give you an option to up the HP by adding a smaller pulley & belt, with new injectors and a tune... call it a Stage 1 or 2, depending on how they want to sell it and you can keep your warrantee.

Good point!

Camaro HP. I like the sound of it. I like break from the past (Z/28 was an internal code to begin with). I want it. I will buy it.

The MRC will be an awesome feature (option?). A possible side benefit of the MRC in the Camaro HP will be the possibility of adding this functionality to existing 2010/2011 SS models. A similar thing happened with the HUD - these were retrofitted to early production 5th gen Camaros in kit form.
