The red statement is pretty much the only argument Camaro5/6 use. |

Al O, if you're reading this, please consider an LT5 ZL1! |

3 years ago we never saw a 707 hp Jeep SUV either. GM needs to respond. Huge cash cow there.

I'd spend more on an LT5 powered ZL1. Should be close to Demon levels of acceleration on pump gas (808 hp vs 750 hp but the Camaro being lighter) plus with the great handling. 75k-80k would be a good price for such a car I think.

I get it that everyone wants more power. Even I do myself, but like I said earlier and Can'tHaveTooMuchHP reiterated, Chevy came out with the top dog at the time with each release. That's no different for the others. When their top car came out, it was at the top, at least in the straight line stuff, which means the most to the majority of us out there. It's a never ending cycle that I hope continues, because just 10 years ago, most of us would've never imagined we'd have the caliber of cars available that we do today. It's really amazing if you stop and think about it.
I really hope they make a ZL1 with the LT5 in the next couple of years, but if they don't, I'll still enjoy the ZL1 I have today just the same. Especially if Chevy gives us the drag setup soon. If you're reading Chevy, I will gladly volunteer my car for testing if I get to keep my warranty! If they don't give us an LT5 and Ford and Dodge come out with faster cars, if I'm not swayed to switch over to one of those, I'll mod my car to be faster than those, and have fun out running someone that thinks their new car is faster than mine. Kind of makes mine a sleeper in that sense, as long as I don't give it away with the sound of the car. Either way I will enjoy myself and whatever car I have.

GM Camaro division needs to abandon the Z28 = NA thing. It’s the best marketing trim level they have going for them. No new blood cares if Z28 was NA 50 years ago. To me it means, track ready.
