The Z/28 should get the same engine as the Z06 be it 5th gen or future gens.

Unlike copyrights or patents, trademark registration rights can last indefinitely if the owner continues to use the mark to identify goods or services.
They did, but since they stopped using it they had to reapply... luckily no one else took it when it ran its course.

I'm pretty sure the rights to the names of cars expires after a time and to retain it, you have to renew. That they applied to keep it isn't a real surprise, and doubtful any other car manufacturer would use the name. Can you imagine a Mustang Z28???

EDIT: see you mentioned it being a 6th gen model. Then I can see that happening if the ZL1 isnt around. Only reason I see it not happening is I dont see how you can have your ultimate top of the line Camaro ZL1 that starts around 55K then have a car that costs 10K less and outperforms the ultimate camaro. |

I hope you guys know that just because GM trademarks the name, doesn't mean they'll be making it anytime soon (IF they even do). I still think there won't be any 5th gen Z/28.

All this talk of 6 gen Z28,seems too early for a new generation Camaro.Why not some styling changes on the 5 gen?

I welcome a full on racecar-like Camaro that's almost fully stripped and devoid of creature comforts.. H*ll, even ditch the rear seat entirely like the Boss LS. I want a racecar with a VIN Camaro. Not a Comfy Cruiser that can play on a track. |

GM may just want to avoid having to buy the name from someone the way they have to pay Dave Hamburger from SLP for the use of "ZL1". Also, consider how much merchandise gets sold with the "Z28" name on it. That potential revenue alone would be reason enough to trademark the name.
