2019 IROC Z

Why would they release an IROC-Z when there are no IROC races?

$$$$$$. Stupid question huh? Another phony non collectors, collectors car.

Have to admit It's the 1st 6th gen I could live with if I couldn't have my 11. The 6th gen SS is fun as hell to drive but I don't get excited about the style. This one looks mean to me. Not crazy about the insert in the middle of the front end.

Is this the one that 6LE had at Sema 2017?

I didn't think GM had the rights to the IROC name anymore.

Wow if this is legitimate it would cause me to put my ZL1 up for sale very quickly.. I would order the iroc-z as soon as they are accepting pre-orders.
Has anyone heard of price predictions for this car?

The marketing department was told to revive another nostalgic name in order to sell more 6th gens and it came down to either IROC-Z or Berlinetta

I have also not heard anything about a new engine being developed, let alone an 8 liter V12.

This IROC-Z isn't even a GM car. It was a modded Camaro made by 6LE Designs for the SEMA show. Nothing more, nothing less.

GM doesn't own the name IROC.

Meh... over dressed aftermarket custom car guy. And what's with the shitty paint? It's like it blushed and they were painting the night before the show.
