Z28 / Mystery Camaro solved and identified as Firebreather Hero Movie Car

[LS 1st gen]

This whole thing is pretty fishy....

Sounds like you're trying to do a little viral marketing.

In all seriousness, good luck with the movie. The Camaro is an awesome car and it's no surprise that it's chosen for movies of all types.

I'm curious to see the car at Autorama next Saturday if it's really going to be there. I will post pics!

didnt somebody post earlier that they had heard the 2010 camaro was gonna be in ghostrider 2? could this be it?

[TimberWolf69/10camaro]

im willing to bet over 200 dollars that its gonna be either a trans am or a firebird becuz if u really pay atention to the late model camaros and firebrids alond with trans ams they always looked like a camaro in some kind of way so now gm wants to profit off of the body model sooo go figure lol.

Considering that there are rumors of the Camaro to be in Ghost Rider 2, Firebreather would be a good name for the car to star in such a movie.

Thank God, if that's what it would look like GM's in trouble.....

Damn, I was hyped when I 1st saw z-28 in the listing only to find out that it is for a movie

I still say something is fishy. If your marketing campaign only started 1 week early, your website should have pretty much been done, and like has been said before, what professional movie companies register a domain name with GODADDY? If this is your marketing budget, I expect that "D'jinn" is gonna be a straight to DVD movie?

Here's my take:

Being the car guy that you are, you know people are going batshit crazy for any Z/28 news. You get someone to get some "spy photos" of a mysteriously camo-ed car and put them out on Chevy sites. Other Auto sites pick up on the story of a possible Z/28 test mule, and all of a sudden, you have more free advertising than you could have ever possibly been able to afford.

Once again, I could be wrong, but the internet has made me skeptical of everything.

And I haven't driven my Camaro since Oct 30th, so I am going through severe withdrawl and am super grumpy :(

I agree, it was fun....It will be funny to me too that the Z28 mule will be in an SS body and is being driven around riiiight now and we dont even know it. lol. Ha!

+1000

....and why is it that if dude is a "troll" or an "enthousiast" he hadn't registered waaaay before this.

I'm saying, looks way too much like the concept Firebird....

..why the hell "Firebreather?"...sounds too close to Firebird if you ask me.

Whole deal is crackers.

Does this mean that GM is not making a Z28?

No, it doesn't mean anything at all.
