Well if your excluding most of the market...to me that makes it exclusive JMHO

I guess I just see the Z/28 as something that is supposed to be attainable to the average Joe.....

Ugggh we have two more years of assumptions infront of us.... I dont think I can take it

mm-hm...there's the split then. Since the SS already carries out that role, I see a Z/28 as the 'Halo' Camaro. I was introduced to Camaros after the first-gen, myself; And that is the role the Z/28 played in those years -- and that's why I see it the way I do.

I think thats where alot of these spirited debates are coming from.... We all have different opinions on what the Z/28 means to us

From a personal standpoint, this would be good competition for the Shelby's.

Personally, I am happy with what I have. So for those who will be buying this car, More power to you! Literally and figuratively!

"Officially" is my new favorite word for the month.




What makes it exclusive? High-priced, yes...but not exclusive. 6-12 months worth of extra saving over an SS, and bang -- you're in.

I like your word choice!!!

He means the Z28 is no longer a performance package. It's a Camaro with an upgraded/lifted suspension for off-road use.
