Now there's a 5th Gen I'd like to buy. The restyling on both the SS and Z/28 are exellent. The front looks way more race inspired with the more narrow grille and larger lower intake. And what's cool is GM is taking what they've learned at the track and applying it to there street cars, just as it should be and we get all the benefits in styling and performance.
I be curious to see how Ford counters. I don't think anyone was expecting the Z/28...I was thinking just option a 1LE with an LS7 but BAM...GM drops the hammer with the Z....Brovo GM Brovo

More expensive tires with treadwear of 60, add those to a 1LE and you should have similar grip...brakes are killer with carbon rotors and Recaro seats....

Not a big fan of the wheels and it need halos.
I want a 1st gen, I want a 1st gen, I want a 1st gen... I need to keep telling myself that so I am not tempted to get one of these instead .

Taylor, buy your 1st gen, this will only depreciate, a restored 1st gen will not....

Wait a minute. 2014's come out in the Fall. But the Z28 will be shown in the Spring of 2014 at Track Events. That would make it a 2015 though and a 6th Gen, but it's a 2014.
So either that's a typo or I have no idea what Chevy is doing.

The z/28 was the top dog so this will be the new top dog? I'm so confused about what segment this car lands in. I'm excited for its return but confused. I also like the lack of a chrome strip but still hate the butt. Terrible rear end, but other than that a homerun.
