And that is the reason why soo many were put off by the new offering. The masses wanted the name plate. Very few can remember the rawness of the 67-73, then came the 78-02 Z28 sticker cars, with good handling, creature comforts and low HP (par for the time). 5th gen comes along (w/new gen tech), and combines yesteryear amenities with supercar braking, and a monster 427.

I still believe that the 1LE should have been the "sticker" Z28, and the current Z/28 been a strictly 1500 unit supercar killer. As it is, they over produced these cars, and I suspect at even 2500 built, long term value will be slow to mature.
