I think the Z28 is a great classic car. It represents a Camaro-only trim, making it unique and special to Camaro enthusiasts.
At the same time, GM has made great strides in recent history regarding the quality of cars and investments. Right now, a Z28 doesn't make sense. There's plenty of demand, but it is hard to place in such a high-performing lineup. If a super Camaro were to exist, then it might be called a ZL1 rather than a Z28. The Z28 would have to be between the performance of the Z06 and the Camaro SS, which is a pretty small area of horsepower. Since they are so close in performance, it is better, for now, to release stage kits or GMPP kits that enhance horsepower and torque to make up for the temporary hiatus of the Z28. With a Z06 running at 505 hp and the Camaro SS running at 400 hp (L99), a Z28 would have to compete somewhere in between. Adding 50 hp to a Camaro SS is not a good enough investment to justify producing a Z28 right now.
