ATS probably will. XTS is supposed to get it as well.

"It is not the final document, as it does not include a complete or accurate list of models or content. As you can imagine, the VIN card requires a tremendous amount of collaboration to verify the production information for each model across all four GM brands sold worldwide.

Rest assured, when we finalize the 2014 VIN card, it will be complete and factually accurate."


So that adds one more piece of information to chew on and what this all means, if anything....
What else would they say if there were plans to put in a LS7? Yes, we are coming out with a LS7 version of the camaro? I'm sure it's confidential and they can't speak openly about it so they have to choice but to say what they said whether true or not.

So if this is true, where is GM going to stuff the remote oil tank?

also if you look at this page, it shows another interesting find: engine type "w" is an "HO" or High Output LS3!!

Yeah but it already is. The LS3 is 426hp vs L99 400hp

LF3 has my interests peaked. Grand National!!!

Just because they said it's not complete doesn't mean the LS7 isn't going in the Camaro. It just means they didn't add the Z28 as a trim yet!

Scott must be rallying the Suburbans as we speak.

Cool

My 2010 V6 work car is getting stale to me. I am tired of being teased by Z28 rumours! Please! I was too poor when I was a teenager! BRING IT BACK! GM, I am ready to trade in my V6 for a Z28, as previous posters noted... I have cash, TAKE IT!

Does Z28 have to show up as a trim level?

Maybe a performance package like 1LE?

If i'm not mistaken wasn't the Synergy Green Camaro going to be a twin turbo v6 that was going to make 400 hp and get 30 mpg. I thought that was the reason for the color with the whole green thing going on around that time. The accent lighting in the interior was also green. Very sharp car. The last minute the engine was put on hold but
not the paint.
When I was at Barett Jackson last year I talked to one of the enginers who worked on the ZL1 project and when i asked if he was getting one, he just smiled and said he was waiting for 2014, so there might be some truth to the LS7 thing or maybe something even cooler.
I would think another option for a Z28 would be the LT1 bumped up a little to make it worth doing over the 426hp motor. Would be easier than the LS7 not being dry sump and not being hand built would be cheaper.
If there are left over LS7s, or they keep building them, why not a ZO6 C7 Vette?
I have always wanted to see another bad Z28, having a 71 RS/Z28 that my parents bought new for me for my 16th birthday which I still have, just hope it doesn't have an LS9. I would be very disappointed that I bought a new 2012 ZL1.
