I'm 28 years old and now into classics as well as my current Camaro... A redesign of the 2nd Gen is the way to go. There really isn't much you can do to 5th Gen to make it look any better than it currently is. It's very clear that 2nd Gen's design lends more to weight reduction anyway. It makes more sense. It just needs to take ELEMENTS of it... like key areas such as the grille and overall silhouette of the entire car's exterior.

That's what I would expect and anticipate styling wise and I would bump up the interior... stop with the plastic and hard rubber.

As far as engine... everyone is spot on about it...
SS MUST be at a minimum 500hp
ZL-1 must still exist
Z28 Twin Turbo v6 in Jay Leno mold
V6 for Cafe rules...
I4 if you MUST for Cafe rules.
