I would buy it to prove Al wrong, but no diesel, no care.

Looks fantastic aside from the taillights. Where have I heard that before...
But it's not nearly as bad as the C7. I am just being a picky bitch.
There are a lot of people bitching about the looks but I really think they did a good job with the Camaro.

For those of you still lost, heres the post

I really like the tail lights doe.
Will this cut into the ZL1s market share? If it's faster around a track, why buy a ZL1?
Does this mean that the upcoming Z06 Will take the 600hp bench mark and get the ZR1 to 700+?

Street car. Race car. We'll continue to play with that definition over the next couple years before the internet changes its mind.

On another note, this is going to look menacing in black.

Looks much better in white. I saw a shot in red and it wasn't as good.

Soo. Late 90s integra taillights. Looks like the back of a Honda prelude

Hate the LEDs!
Granted, the above is the SS not the Z/28, but still. Looks like they're the same?
Love the tips on the Z

I think it will. Pricing should be ~$12,000 less based on the retail cost of the LS7 versus the LSA, but there isnt enough room in the pricing for that. So it is going to have to be a little cheaper than the ZL1, but it will have ~80 less horse but less weight so...

it's a track car - reading the specs it will smoke any earlier gen on an open track.

Extensive lightweighting saved 300 pounds over the Camaro ZL1
|
if its 300 lbs lighter that is getting to 4th gen weight, no?
this matters big time. less unsprung is very nice
Quote:

The Camaro Z/28 features 19-inch diameter wheels and tires, which reduce unsprung weight by 42 pounds (19 kilograms) per car compared to the 20-inch wheels standard on Camaro SS and ZL1.

sorry kids, this sounds like the stripper you've all wanted. save your pennies.

Car looks really good in person. The Recaro seats have aggressive bolstering but are very comfortable IMO.

So Chevy created a low production, high demand car that will be selling for well over sticker at every dealer who gets them... Guess that counts me out.
Not saying that the 500hp LS7 won't be fast in a 3800lb brick, but they could have put a 475hp version of the LS3 with all those goodies in the car (with another 200lb reduction in mass), charge less for it and probably be faster on the track.
I see it as a limited edition car made for track use, but will be more of a collectable.
Call me crazy.
