I don't think so. If they can release a car near GT500 performance for significantly less, they'll capture a lot of the GT500 market. Anyone who wanted to outperform a GT500 can either spend money right away for a Corvette, or buy the Z28 and mod it down the road (or add GMPP options at build).

That also eliminates the worry of the Z28 cannabalizing the Corvette market, which means they wouldn't need to limit production.

The more I think about it, the more I think the Z28 fits best as a GMPP-upgraded SS, sitting around $40k-$45k.
