Paraphrase: "It's easier to take parts off a car, than it is to add them" So to take the already precisely-engineered, track-ready ZL1...drop the LSA, drop the interior appointments/options. Transfer the MR to an option...and spend some R&D to substitute an LS7.... That leaves a bullet-proof powertrain, track-focused accessories (like brake and powertrain cooling), aero, tires, and an all-business character... It seems easy enough when we type it out here....over and over and over again. Now...will they do it? |

Apparently someone(s) at GM agreed with you. There's still a small part of me that wishes the ZL1 was called the Z28...and that same small part only wants that, I think, because of the father's '79 Z.... |

Wow, how serene it is here amongst the Z28 threads. Been in the ZL1 threads, a lot of bickering that it's not a true track car. Why vent when they are welcome to join our cause?
I believe more people want a true "Z28" than many think. Hey GM are you still listening? |

Here's to hoping everybody's wishes come true. And those with unreasonable wishes go somewhere else. |

Honestly, as annoying as it can be at times ... it is what we did on this site before anyone had their 5th gens. Its kinda nice to be reminded of the old days.

The other half use it to "justify" why they won't buy one........ not to mention they would NEVER be able to afford one..... I am getting a sick feeling it will be priced out of my range They said it would be competitive, but they are sending it out with what is comparable to a GT500 track package... that is good, but bad for pricing I think for me
