I'm Back and for all the guys that said I was crazy - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Well I remember posting on here maybe 5-6 months ago about the Z-28 and I was pretty sure that the car would have the SS engine just SC and I said it would probably have a different hood and maybe a few other goodies. I also stated if GM wanted this car to sell they would keep it under 50k and if they wanted to do well on them they would sticker them at 45. All the guys were saying that a Z-28 is exclusive its going to have some crazy engine and that it would cost 55-65k and that its going to be nuts.

Well sports fans it's not even going to be called the Z-28 and its going to have the LS3 in it. to me it looks like a new hood and fascia, nothing totally new. I guess the word is still out on price, but with what I see I dont see how this car could run more than 50k.

I was right GM is not going to build a car and put it out of the hands of 90% of the people right now unless it says vette or cadillac and sorry dont matter how cool or fas your camaro is it will never be on the same level as Corvette or Cadillac. And you all were nuts thinking GM would stock make something that's going to beat the corvette. I guess theres dreaming and well wishing nothing wrong with that, but you have to look at reality. The economy and times, with these two factors you get the camaro that is being built today.

A no B.S. response, I own all three, Z06, 2011 CTS-V (wifey

) and the Camaro, and the Camaro trumps them period. Even before I wrapped my camaro in patriotic theme, my Camaro as others do, commands alot of attention!

I don't think you've let enough information make it out....you're still a little crazy.

Well I agree with you I think the camaro trumps them both two minus the new vette sorry. I am just saying as a general public view and GM's view. And I think your bias when you have a blower and everything else on that car and not a plain jane camaro.

I think you'll notice that some folks are still missing

Pretty sure everything is saying LS3. But thought the articles said it all

stikSS · 02-09-2011, 10:00 AM

The engine is a LSA, has many new new features.... He's claiming to be the one who knew all along... but don't even know what motor it has

Sawyer · 02-09-2011, 10:06 AM

LSA

Sorry Boss-man, it's the supercharged LSA (pumping out upwards of 556+hp)...I suggest you pay REAL close attention to the press-releases in the next few minutes. You're either not thinking of the same car we are...or you're assuming a heck of a lot.

I don't think there are many things more rewarding than someone trying to be all smug when they think they've been proven right only to be proven wrong.
