And I'm guessing they ditch the MagneRide too for the GT350R.

Very excited about this car. Glad to see it got a refresh to set it apart from the generic s550. I predict base price starting at $55-60k. I also do not see this car outperforming the z28 at a track. I think the 1/4 times should be pretty close though.
Cant wait for more details, love it so far.

I hope it crushes Z28 because competition is great for all. |

We'll all know more after 2PM PST, that's the official unveiling and hopefully more specs will be given.

A nice car but nothing really advanced except for the motor. I would expect the pricing closer to a ZL1 than a Z/28. Magnetic shocks was a surprise. The Z/28 still should have an advantage in braking and suspension. Expect GM to offer a superior Camaro for less money.

That car is gorgeous. And sounds incredible.
I'll be interested in this, and to see what GM does with the 6th Gen. |

Very true, they at least had data up front to explain the reason for the flo-tie. All I know is that this "grille surround" increases rigidity. I want to know how it does it. Admittedly its a bit of an over engineered piece for the car but its functional at least. Not knocking Ford for the "grille surround" but it makes it sound like the car is just built to a specific price point rather than what is really, ultimately achievable. I understand that leaves room for a more potent R version so I know there's more to come.
Again, not knocking it, just curious about what they really did to the car. Quote:

With all the features this GT350 has I think it'll be a ZL1 vs type of match up-
