Wow if only the Zed 28 was being build those two cars would be a hell of a rivalry.

D@MN YOU FORD!!! Well, considering they don't have a direct 'Vette competitor, this makes sense. Still, that's a whole lotta' $$$ for a 'Stang; however, that's a whole lotta' 'Stang... I'll give 'em kuddos for being in a position to do it though.

I like the rear,they finally spell out S-H-E-L-B-Y across the trunk like it's supposed to be. The sequential lights sound alittle tacky though. The front is probably the most menacing looking front i've seen on a American car in in years.

I'm so amazed that traditionalists and classic car enthusiasts do not know this. I'm getting sick of people putting the Z28 up with the GT500 when it clearly isn't on the same level of performance. The Camaro ZL1 competed with top-tier GT500s.

The Z28 has had many different faces,from the 1st gen Trans Am road racer(it competed with the Boss from '69-70,not the GT) to a more traditional muscle car(offered with bigger engines and Autos) to a smog dog to what the last one was,a great all-arounder that you could get with a Automatic or as convertible,stuff you couldn't get with the 1st gen Z28. It's changed too much over time to have a set definition of what a Z28 means. From the '82 until '02,the Z28 competed with the GT and Cobra. The 4th gen SS isn't that different as to seperate it from the 4th gen Z28. The past is past,the new Z28 will have to compete with the new GT500. In my opinion,the Boss 302 was the top performance Mustang from '69-70 and the Z28 was the best performance all-around you could get in a Camaro from '67-69. |
