I still think the Z-28 will come out in the lighter Gen6 Camaro as a new fast winding V8; double overhead cam and 4-valves per cylinder. It'll be a modern 302.

This is mostly the federal government at work. An automatic would be difficult and expensive to certify/comply with all the unconstitutional agency regulations.
The only true sports car is a manual.






IMHO of course.

Well I guess if you aren't happy with it your just a
Z Loser party of 1
Haha, just kidding.

I don't think it looks that bad, and I think a lot of peoples opinions will change when more pictures start rolling in and they announce that HP number I'm stoked

So, they took the Corvette guys to lunch...got the mag ride and dual mode exhaust from them...BUT COULD NOT GET THE TECHNOLOGY OUT OF THEM FOR HIDING THE ONSTAR/XM ANTENNA IN THE MIRRORS?

The interior changes sound cool. I love the car...just wonder how many body parts I will have to sell to get one.

Great Post!!! Z/28 will be just another variant coming soon..... Is my info wrong when I say that the ZL1 is top dog in horsepower? Z/28 will be a track car very similar to the SSX. GM did their homework well. I will pray to the gods-of-war for the Z/28. So far, my predictions are on the money.

I totally agree. I understand why some people must have the automatic.
However, I cannot imagine this car becoming anyone's daily driver. This car is a MONSTER beast and they are staying with it's roots. Manual only.
