Might be old news to you guys but I saw it and I didn't see anything on the front page here. I glad to see GM going back to its roots of the Z28 being few and far between. When real Z pulls up along side of you, you just keep looking forward and don't make eye contact. No one likes to get owned

to be honest, I think this should've been the ZL-1 Camaro. The Z/28 should've been a stripped-down track machine. Cut weight, put tons of work into the suspension and stuff, make it a sleeper (versus the scoops and gills and such)...just like the original.

I'd like it more if it had an LS7.

I'm more of the naturally aspired sort. The LS7 also has more cubes.

I like how the image on that site has a watermark underneath a different site's watermark.

For the amount of money one of those is likely to cost, I'd buy a Z06 Corvette. Doesn't mean it's not cool, just not a car I would buy with as many other options as there are out there.

the Z/28 will likely be in the low $50k range. Any higher and it will outprice the GT500. So whatever the Mustang is at, the Z will probably be pretty close (compare that to about $75k for the Z06)

Not to mention the LSA is more powerful than the LS7, and I believe it weighs less as well (and the 5th gen needs to shed a few pounds the way it is).
