You are apparently the only one that thinks so and I don't get it. They are two different generation cars built 4 years apart from each other, of course things get better with time and technology and sometimes it also gets cheaper. Nobody should feel slighted in the least as that would be impossible since they weren't available at the same time as each other.

The same thing could be said for the old ZL1, but that's not the case. The 5th Gen ZL1 brought back the legendary name, and the Z/28 did the same. The Z/28 was a huge step for Chevrolet, and now we have the ZL1 1LE because of it.

I don't think it's fair to say they got screwed, one day it will be a collector's item. Everyone loves a big LS7 N/A motor! As I've said on other thread gas cars will be "extinct" soon. Europe has banned all gas cars by 2040, the U.S will follow. Enjoy the last of the Muscle car wars guys.

NicD...I simply asked a question and got an answer...given that the point was made pretty clearly at the end of the video that the Z not only was superior in performance but was cheaper and had more options...it begged the question...

Like I said, I am glad the Z28 community is happy...

Don't read anything into it pal...

That's because there is zero oil in Europe from which to make gasoline and they have to import it all. Making electricity can be done locally.

Nobody gets screwed when newer is better, faster, cheaper, nicer. Say that to computer consumers. No one cares. It is called progress. Buy new and move on.
