The '12 ZL1 should really be a '13, instead of an incredibly late year '12.

You buy a new 2012 ZL1 and it's already 4-5 months old.

Actually, its Ford that is out of line with the rest of the industry with model years, not GM. Most automakers start their new models in the middle of the summer so that they start to arrive at dealerships late summer and are there in quantity by the end of the year. So when 2012 started, lo and behold ... there are 2012 cars on the lot.
To me, it doesn't make any sense at all that you will be able to buy a 2013 car in April of 2012.
