Corvette
has had it for a few years. In the Vette it is the F55 option. Switch allows you to change the suspension. i.e Touring or Sport. I have it on my C6 and I believe it is stock on the ZR1

It makes sense to leave the more agile, nimble and lighter alpha platform for the true Z/28 name. After all, it is supposed to be more of a road-race car than just a heavy cruiser. A smart move by GM, if you ask me.

I'm sure things at GM are changing based on competition in the marketplace. They need a top dog Camaro to win the Muscle Car Wars. ZL1 maybe ZL2? It will reign supreme, probably high $50's my guess. But the Z28 is for the so called masses, it should be more affordable. I like the idea of a super Camaro, but I'll buy an affordable Z28.

Yea, I believe in this theory. I think GM will introduce a smaller V8 (5 liter) DOHC in the Z-28. Maybe the Gen6 car isn't too far off.

Based on simply reading magazines like Motor Trend, Autoweek etc it appears IMHO I agree with some posters that with suspension it appears to be a CTS-V version muscle car. My question is wouldn't that likely make it to MSRP in the 55,000-60,000 range? (esp if an automatic version is an option). Seems like 45,000-50,000 seems low...

If you think about this it really makes alot of sense now. This new 2012 High HP Editon is going to be named something else & will be the competitor to the Shelby GT500 & the new Z/28 will eventually come out & be what it is suppossed to be a Boss 302 killer that carves through tracks with ease. We may not see the Z/28 until the beginning of the new lighter chassis in 2014. I just don't want to see this new HP Edition Camaro to get beat by the Shelby I have a feeling the Shelby will be producing 600hp by the time this is released in 1-1-2012.

Maybe they should call this GT500 fighter the Panther Performance Camaro ZL-1 or something along those lines. I think it would be kool to have a Panther emblem on the Bow Tie & on the back of the car like where the SS & RS emblems are right now. I think another manufacturer has the rights to the ZL-1 name right now if im not mistaken though.

Yeah they should call this the Panther Performance Camaro and have a panther emblem on the front grill where the SS & RS emblems go & on the back of the car. This along with the more agressive hood & body would make it stand out more than an SS.
