Just a thought...

I a not saying it is going to suck it is just going to be outperfromed by its competitor if that info sheet is correct. Might be cheaper though.

But....we don't know that. And that's the point I was trying to make.

People thought the ZL1 would be out-tracked based on its spec sheet alone. We all know how that turned out.

Now would be a great time to return to that time-honored Camaro enthusiast mantra of: Have a little faith.

My ZL1 hasn't been built yet, and they have a touch screen that they can put into production by June, I may just wait. Ugh. I hope it makes it's way into 2012's :/

You may want to switch to a 2013 MY order. What's a few months to get what you want? Especially if it's not built yet. In the time between now and when orders for 13s open up...I'm sure we'll know more.

Don't look for a touch-screen to make it into '12 MY cars.

Well, not before June something-or-other, I think. You'd need to ask Becky@Rodgers or Tom Henry around here when '13 orders can be placed.

The good news is, once this QC hold ends, all ZL1s after them should be in and out like all other Camaros.

this could be an option though and MSRP should not move much since it is a mid model year (or 3/4 model year) who know though.

we have an 04.5 cummins and the price of the 05 was within $500 I almost ordered a 2005 becasue of it but they put plastic intercoolers in the 05's so I went 04.5.
