Pistonheads (uk web rag) video test of ZL1 & GT500
Always had a soft spot for a camaro, particularly 1st version Z28 after my old canuck boss regaled me of tales of his in his youth. So here is the UK Car website of choices Monkey Harris testing the ZL1 and GT500

Hmm I took away that monkey liked the engine in the ford more but for everything else he prefered the camaro. His drive in the gt500 seemed restrained for his normal activity echoing his words it's an engine looking for a chassis to match it . Also prices he mentioned for importing to Blighty forgot to include about 30% add on of import tax and sales tax once landed :/

Yep - I'd be all over the ZL1 if it could be had here. I'm seriously tempted to import one - but it does make it a £60k car (more like $85k I guess) and that hurts.
