How much upgrading do you think is necessary? (since you are on the inside with GM I guess you'll know)

Ok gentlemen, here's the deal... If you want to disagree, that's fine, if you want to belittle, there's going to be problems.

Maybe I come across as course, if so, I apologize. Having said that, I've been on this site for a while, I'm not leaving just because my opinion doesn't mesh with yours. My (serious) opinions are usually as valid as any other individuals opinions.

If you think you're going to bully me and run me out, well.....

..... ain't gonna happen.

Most people can drive an automactic but all can't a standard.

Remember the ZL1 was going to be a stick only car then G.M. counted all of the sells lost from the non-shifting folks.

I think you misunderstood me. I'm saying they need both for sales.

I'm not trying to chase you off, and I know you've been on the forum for quite some time.
I was merely pointing out that even using your numbers it's doable.
Regarding the sarcasm, fight fire with fire! There has been too many " not gonna happen" post recently and it's gotten annoying. If you want to help us understand how to get it "the Z28" done welcome aboard. If you just wanna piss in our Wheaties well...

So, you're saying, "If you want to come in here and agree with us, we will love you long time. If your opinion is different, then leave."

This is not a new subject, they were talking about it before I was a member.

Personally, I'd love to see a 5th gen LS7 Z/28, you could find a post of mine from 2008 confirming it. Time and the ZL1 have changed my perspective.

If a 5th gen LS7 car comes out, you can say "I told ya so", if we don't see the Z/28 till the 6th gen, well, just don't eat those Wheaties, someone might have pissed in em'

I'd say there's a mess of folks in this Section who, through time and recent announcements, have remained consistent in their desire for a Z28.

As to eating any kind of Wheaties, I stopped that when Bruce married into the Kardashian family...although a car dashin' around my neighborhood would be welcomed if it was a Z28!
