If you say "I have an SS" you need to clarify it by saying , "I have a CAMARO SS" But if you say "I have a Z28" everyone knows you are talking about a Camaro...

I asked about that, I was told it was holding 475rwhp just fine so far.

Same with the suspension. Modifying it to fit the Zeta platform shouldn't be much of an issue. Same with buying Recaros, I'm sure Recaro would make them. As long as the power and handling is there it will satisfy. All I'm saying is if Ford can make a GT500 and people buy it for 20k over list then a 550hp Z28 would do even better. Keep in mind this is the exact setup on the CTS-V for 60k, IRS, LSA, etc and it has a great interior. Pretty sure they could do a Z28 for 45k or so. |

Does the older generation embrace the Z28 and the younger generation the SS or is age of no relevancy?

Since the Z-28 is 41 years old I really don't think age will have much influence on who likes what.

Other than that I'd say it's a toss up. What hurts the SS as far as the Camaro is concerned is they didn't always use it in every generation of Camaro. Subjective at best.

ok, english is not my mother tongue ... but reading that, I understand that, to people who may beg for an high po camaro, Chevy will answer "sorry folks we can't".
Am I missing the meaning of this interview? I hope so, cause if there's no Z28 or whatever the name 550 hp camaro, suicide is the only option!

Hey, if you're willing to void your warrant and have the cash, the new SS has tons of potential. IMO with the right mods the SS will easily be writing the first of many GT500 obituaries.
