Seen prominently, even with the front covering is a much lower front fascia with large intakes. You can make out the shape despite the covering and it resembles the latest Transformers 3 Bumblebee Camaro front fascia. The hood cowl also looks to be more prominent than on standard Camaro.

The wheels are 20" SP550 anodized black - 20x10 front and 20x11 rears. Wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 tires. The brake calipers very much resemble those from the CTS-V.

Quad exhaust (dual pipes per side) are at the rear, and the photographer described the sound from this car as "nothing short of unholy!"

Best part is, GM was courteous enough to tape the engine specs on the dash: 6.2L supercharged V8, with Auto Transmission.

Post the rear pics brother.....the test car rears are monster phat!

I don't get why they don't just come out and confirm this car already! Ford already has the GT500, BOSS and is offering Super Chargers, dealer installed with warranty on their 2011's.

You are getting your a$$ handed to you Chevrolet. Step it up and get us some solid information on this thing.

Well, the Z28 is still over a year away from production, so there isn't really any benefit to saying "yes, we're building it" right now. Only the truly dedicated will wait that long. Everybody else will just get a Mustang.

So ford can have an answer to what the z offers sooner? Hmmm. Ok.

After studying the pictures shown, it looks like the the front fascia from the T2 Camaro. The lower front vents on each side are much larger than those on the Jay Leno car and the DRL's are much further up in the vent. The pictures from the Michigan Car (No. 5) are using the stock hood. The pictures from San Diego have a cover over the hood that looks like it is definitely hiding a hood scoop of some type. It could be the T2 hood to match the T2 front fascia. I hope that they incorporate the rear wheel vents from the Jay Leno / T3 Camaro and use a bigger spoiler but not the pedestal wing from the T3 car. Which ever way it goes, it is getting closer.

If they keep the TF2/TF3 combination, I think it'll look fan-f***ing-tastic! I'm wondering what's the deal with the marker/signal lights. I'd like some Leno LEDs, but I'd prefer the priority to be performance and handling. Either way, like you said: it's getting closer

I will give you more for the 2010 than the dealer will. I wonder how much the dealer would give you for the 2010?

I am not a big fan of the Z28 front facia. Its just a little too much over the top for me but its a personal preference thing.

The pic looks great!!! But how lowered is your SS bro? Do your tires rub on the inside or outide of your wheel well?????
I want to drop my SS wheel well lip to be even or below the top of the 315 tire with the widened stock rim. Do u think this is possible with your setup???
