To get back to the original ZL1 thread!
You are underestimating this beast. The original only went straight - the new one will handle and go straight. Granted it will be heavy but I expect the engineering will impress everyone. And, looks are subjective. I love them. I would buy one of these immediately if I didn't love my M3 as much as I do. The pony car wars are about to resume! yahooo.

Sorry Al, to me the fact that this car shares almost every component with the CTS-V means there was very little engineering involved....... it had already been done.

No doubt it will be fast but IMO a GT500 is a better car for the money. I can't get past how low rent the Camaro looks inside and out in real life. Ford has steadily been improving their quality and materials, GM has not!

Seems to be a common occurrence amongst those cars.
Its too bad the magazines only test them for 5 laps and not more,
Maybe then they wouldn't be considered the Best Bang for the Buck
Just The Best Bang. LOL

Sorry Al - I suggest you don't buy one or drive one on the track. My guess is you will be disappointed and it will tarnish the Camaro image in your mind forever.

You would be better off with the Aston you have been talking about. At least they are nice to look at.....

At least 4100 lbsThe fact that the they did not use the z28 name I think there might be a Chev attempt at a Boss 302 competitor but at mega ugly & sized!Please notice that I said attempt because the Boss 302 will run & hide from this thing or a future Z28 on a proper roadcourse but then again I think our present M3's will do that and of course you do not have to suffer the embarasment of being seen in the dream car of backwoods teenager

As I said the Z28 is coming to be blown away by the Boss 302
