More fuel for the Z28 fire?

Below is an excerpt from a webchat with Mark Ruess. I found it very interesting...

[Comment From Jones Jones : ]
Are there any key products that you feel need to be accelerated to meet market demand or enter new segments?
Friday December 11, 2009 14:18 Jones
14:20 Mark Reuss: Ok the Volt is key for us all in NA. It is in fact creating a new segment and leapfrogging traditional hybrids. I have been spending a ton of my time in my old job on it--driving it (in rain--no i did not recieve volts so I love it and we cant wait to have it here. I launched Cruze in Oz and I cannot wait for it here as well--although we did not have the 1.4T we only had 1.8L and diesel--so all three will be really well recieved. I also like z28's.

Are we sure he didn't mean a Z model of the cruze and just typoed the Z28? I mean, I'm all for a Z28, I'm just making my observation.

so there is still hope. lol.
