Sounds logical CAFE and all that being considered. The 2014 ZL1 would then be the car I have to read about!

Not gonna happen, the 13 convertiable is proven and stated to have 580 hp and there is not enough time for Gm to figure out how to put ls9 in the 2014. The best most amazing fastest most collectible zl1 to have is the 12. Lol

My guess is you have not heard anything.

im sorry but i think u missed the part where i said "New interior colors, hp and torque improvements" and i heard the rumors on here. more likely gossip than rumors if u wanna get technical about it. and why would i make a false claim about hearing anything. i dont belong to a camaro forum to push peoples buttons or upset them. im on here to share feelings and ideas reguarding everything that is related to the 5th gen camaro, especially the ZL1.

I think there will be changes, but nothing major. Some extra options, updated interior, colors, stuff like that

And it will be across the Camaro lineup, not just ZL1

Let's not forget that every year has seen improvements - 2011 got HUD, 2012 got reverse camera, suspension

I don't see 2013 getting nothing at all - manufacturers don't stand still in today's competitive market

It would be nice to see a Recaro seat option and the Carbon model introduced. My friend just picked up an '09 CTS-V with Recaro seats and they are real nice. My guess is there will be a hp bump for MY 14 to combat the 2013 GT500.

ive never seen the recaros on the cts, are they more luxury oriented or are they more like the mustangs bucket style?

[FINALLYSATISFIED]

You can best believe there will be changes, maybe minor adjustments in hp/tq. Possibly a limited edition ZL-1. At this point, who really knows but GM?

Recaro actually sells seats. If people like them the can be added. The ones in the mustang run $800-$1300 ea depending on covering.

The one's that come in the cts-v are 2500-3k ea.

I think ford charges $1800 for their option. So it is not like they are cutting amazining deals on them.

This is the part of the car where GM dropped the ball on the ZL1, not offering Recarros as an option
