disclaimer: no, i am not, nor was i ever, nor will i be a ford fan. however, there is something to be said for a 450 hp blown mod motor that says gt500 on the rocker panel, for under $45000. that alone is worth it just to have it in the shelby book...
Never say never dear sir.
Who said that Zeta was going to give us a correct Camaro? Who said Camaro was deffinalty going on Zeta?
Zeta or VE is not dead, its just going to be delayed for American consumption. Austraila will be rolling out there VE's next year.
Lutz is not in charge of platforms, he is in charge of future cars and the things that go in, on and around them.

As for the GT500, its a drag racer. STILL a live axle (that is very much like the third/4th gen set up might I add), so it doesnt give us a TRUE performance machine. If Shelby was going to put his name on it, they should have created a IRS set up for the car. Im not paying 45k+ for a drag racer. I want my car to handle just as well.

To tie into the two subjects, Camaro BETTER have IRS with its new chassis. I dont wana hear crap about wheel hop. If you want to make a drag racer out of a brand new car, then enjoy. I want a sports car. 8)
