We manufacture parts and do our best to avoid in-the-field issues all the while knowing that we too will have our turn in the barrel. Everyone has them. With a lot of hard work and a little luck you have very few of them.

Simply this car is more of a straight track muscle car.
The Z28 is a differant breed altogather, better on course track to
compete with the Boss mustang. Less gadgets and gizmoe's, also
less HP, hopefully lighter and 10k to 12k less on the MSRP hopefully.

I'm predicting we may have some tidbits of information concerning the
Z28 once were latter into this year. Word is production won't start till
2014 but that's just a guess at this point.

Ohh and thanx for the great pic's of the LZ1 from the Dallas show.

The more and more I think about it the more and more I see why we dont have a Z28 yet and why it most likely wont show up until the next generation.

The is just no engine for it. Cant use the LS7 due to the cost of it plain and simple. The LS7 with less HP then the LSA would still make a Z28 cost as much as a ZL1, and I guess I dont see GM making a Z28 with an LS3.

Someone help me bake on the wagon I think I just fell off

Keep it simple. Direct injection turbo six. Better balance. #3's thinner glass for weight reduction. Z28 and ZL1 -- different names. Different animals. Both great cars.
