Considering the ZL1 was already better than any mustang, this just blew them completely out of the water.
Not to mention, it doesn't look all feminine like the Mustangs do. |

Toss a Z/28 badge on it and suddenly everyone loves it.
I'll say what I said before - I'm not a fan of the hood vent. I know why it's there now - but I still wish they executed it better. I've liked the front fascia treatment all along, the taillights look better with a professional pic and not what we saw on a SD broadcast (proper lighting and all that). Throwback to 1969 - that's what they are aiming for and I will agree, they hit that mark. The car is honestly a race car you can drive on the street. Buy on saturday, race on sunday. They've done good in the mechanics department. The car just needs a different hood and it would be perfect. I'm glad they brought back the Z/28 - I'm on the fence about the fact that the car still weighs in @ 3900lbs (the ZL1 is 4100 - 300 = 3900lbs). Still a pig - but the LS7 will help with that a bit. Still. If GM plans to keep the Camaro Z/28 moniker alive through to the alpha platform, I think that I will be choosing that route. We'll have to see... -RK

Would have been nice if they had at least left the stereo intact (two speakers + radio). The original Z/28 (1969) had only two speakers and a radio.

Shark attack!

so if the GTR is 2 seconds faster then the ZL1 and this is 3 can we say this is a super car?

I might try and score a set of those Recaro seats for my car, they look comfy... I like the tail lights... The rest of the body changes? Not doing anything for me, I don't feel the urge to run out and buy one, like when I originally saw the concept 5th gen and I knew that I would own one.
Ls7? Great. How much is that gonna cost? Interested to see pricing for the Z/28, but not interested in buying. I'll be holding onto my 2010 at least until the 6th gen comes out; fingers crossed they can pull off something amazing like they did with the original introduction of the 5th gen. I AM however interested to get my hands on that air intake though to play with. I wonder if that's a Z/28 only thing, or perhaps available on the SS also. |
