In perspective, the Laguna Seca is just as "track oriented" and it comes in at less that 50K! Oh wait, and it has a purpose built engine for it just for that car!! I will never own a Ford, I have always had the Chevrolet Passion but dammit I feel like I have been kicked in the balls then given an ice pack then kicked again repeatedly..you get the point.

"The 1969 Chevrolet Z28 Camaro remains one of Americas most desirable Muscle Cars of all. With just $458 added to the base price of $2,726 of a Camaro coupe, the Z28 included twin rally stripes, quicker steering and the F41 handling suspension with E70x15 raised-letter tires on seven-inch wide rims."
just saying........

They even said in the presentation this car is not for everyone. You want the amenities? Buy a SS 1LE or ZL1. I don't see what the problem is unless you just like the Z28 badge.

It's not for everyone because of the PRICE! Make it 45k and I assure you, SS camaros would be sitting on the lots for yrs to come. It doesn't matter about amenities. You don't buy a camaro for amenities. You buy it for its performance. GM doesn't want 3 million race cars on the road today. Otherwise they'd have given it to the very ppl that asked for it. Right?

Still.... You're getting more car there than buying a Z are you not? You're getting 662HP plus amenities. I understand it'll beat out a GT500 on a track. No doubt there, but the price they'll ask for it won't compensate what you actually get is what I'm getting at. I'm thrilled they brought it out! But they failed to give it to those that asked for it. That's the problem. Spending 65+k on a performance car so you can just say you have one? That's GMs intent. Only intent with this.

...If they weren't going to make it surpass the ZL-1 at the track, that would have probably killed car, and it wouldn't have been built at all... ...Yeah, I'm disappointed as well it's not considered more of a street car, but the Camaro line is already saturated with those... |
