Z28 in 2014? - Page 8 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

GM is taking off across the planet. It's engineering and development skills are in the lead across the board. Heck, they are even shifting their marketing contracts as we speak as I wanted to get the right message out there hopefully to the right target base which IMHO was an area they woefully lacked in. Right now, taking all things into perspective, they are on the right path for major success. However, EPA, GOV, mandates, new manufacturing processes, materials, and technology will limit the HP market in the not too distant future, Enjoy what you have, or can get now if you can afford it. Things will change very soon, and so will the MSRP's. The HP market will shrink for Camaro, mark my words. History always repeats itself.

No actually LS9 has 4lbs torque more than gt500.

Specs GT500 662HP and 600lbs torque
LS9 638HP and 604lbs torque both being supercharged.

Well either way, we all know that GM under-rates their motor and doesn't produce all out beasts, for durability reasons. The boost on the LS9 is 10 lbs, the GT500 is 14lbs.

I know one thing the 2014 camaro will have digital dash just like the 14 corvette and 14 jeep srt8. Everything is changing for the more of a up to date look. No horsepower increase because of EPA went up starting 2015. So car industry is trying to keep up with EPA. It all about fuel econamy

Has there been any leaks from GM about what the Z28/6th gen Camaro will look like other than it will be lighter and smaller?

I haven't found any.

family man · 03-15-2013, 11:26 AM

Plenty of speculation and photochop pics, but nothing legit so far.

Hulkamaniac · 03-15-2013, 01:12 PM

Darn.

Holding out for a Z28, but may just get tired of waiting and get maybe a ZL1 or SS and modding the heck out of it.

End of this month is the New York show and might be where the Z/28 is revealed if they build it for this generation.

You know or arec assuming?

Hulkamaniac · 03-15-2013, 05:53 PM

Keeping fingers crossed.

Cdubbcamaro · 03-15-2013, 09:53 PM

I know. Dash read out, more carbon fiber, functional vents on rear corner panel, a 3rd rim to the zl1, and a better steering wheel. And last,more track time data

Again its the same car with other option packages as an alternative. Needless to say I don't get your argument. I agree to disagree.

...sorry mate, I lost you at Coke and Pepsi making one product...they are two different companies.....

Honestly, if there was a confirmed leak of a 5th gen Z/28, the 6th gen Camaro or anything along those lines, it would be have been posted and reposted, you would have to be blind to miss it.
