Looks sweet, I have not seen this car in the many photos that have been seen.
Hope this is not a repost.
from JUNE 08

what issue (month) is that, or do you know? just curious.

bowtiedriver · 05-02-2008, 06:53 PM

Its from the june 08 issue

Fandango · 05-02-2008, 06:54 PM

Hmmm. Yeah I'd like to see what the all-mighty Motortrend Mag has to say. June 08? Isn't that this months Issue?

In fact, I'm gonna run down to the Wally World and pic it up and be back with some pieces.

No Motortrend Mag, But I got some Reese's Pieces.

Hey youy see that up there Dragoneye?

"(say, at least 500hp) SS (Super Sport) Edition to combat the Shelby GT500."

And I love the speculation of pricing: 42k to 45 for the higher end model. I'm all for the Z/28 SS combo. All I know is that I've got a diecast Bumblebee with the exact color that I want and I'm already shopping for Paint and body shops to match it.

...ah-ah-ah, keep that SS under $40 g's

Dark Eric · 05-02-2008, 10:43 PM

Motor Trend says (in the online article) that the Z/28 could be $27,000, I know for sure Dealers will mark it up to $31,000-$33,000. I'm not going a penny over $34,000 max, the SS just costs too much at $45,000+, I'd rather upgrade a Z/28, 400+ HP is more than enough for me.

Thanks for the pics too, man the car looks menacing in those photos!

Sterling · 05-02-2008, 10:59 PM

Those are interesting new pics in the magazine.
Are those silver bowties? That's the first one I've seen with any badging.
And where are the back-up lights?

Yep, I read it. I hope their right, too! - but I don't think they are.............

On a related topic - it's nice to see someone giving the Camaro the respect it deserves (coughC&Dcough).

Congoman775 · 05-03-2008, 02:41 AM

hate car and driver. but not as much as road and track. they would cover a bowel movement if enzo ferrari would let them.

those silver bowties look badass. and i really hope we get the 500+ hp in the SS, as well as the SS staying 42 and below. otherwise its a Z28 for me!

Congoman775 · 05-03-2008, 02:46 AM

this car is going to look orgasmic with some black rims.

Camaroman_99 · 05-03-2008, 05:11 AM

Hey I like the pics.... Looks good with the "bow tie" . Those prices dont sound so bad.

Emher · 05-03-2008, 05:13 AM

Looks like shopped version of some of the spyshots from Arjeplog this winter here in Sweden.
