Gen6 Z/28

Do you think it'll happen? By that time, I be able to get one according to GF. Or maybe last year of the Gen5.

I don't think we will see a Z/28 in the 6th gen.

I would think like the path of the C7. You'll get an SS, then maybe the ZL1 and then maybe the Z28 down the road. They wont just come out guns a blazing with all their new toys. They have to trickle them out to keep us drooling over what's next.

With the limited run of the 5th Gen Z/28 I'll bet you do in fact see a 2016 Z/28. It just won't be over the top like this generations Z/28, which is probably a good thing.

I think the SS nomenclature is done and allocated for the SS sedan. So, I honestly wonder if we see a Camaro v6 or "RS" then maybe the SS becomes a Z28 again.

Z/28 and ZL1 will probably be one car in Gen6.

Way to far off to tell. I'd bet money that it won't be released in the first two model years of the 6th-gen at least.

Will there be a track-dedicated 6th-gen Camaro? I think it's reasonable to assume yes. This Camaro Team is very attuned to what Camaro can and cannot do. What it can do: is beat the crap out of other cars in its price range on a road course. But what will it be called? What engine will it have? How will it perform?

We'll have to wait and see.

slash or no slash but the Z28 will either be the 1LE (a handling package on the SS) or the ZL1

If they can bring themselves to make the new Z28 with a supercharger it will replace the ZL1 and the ZL1 goes away

I think the ZL1 was a "hold that thought" with the bankruptcy and then subsequently someone saying "WTF were we thinking by going to name a supercharged car Z/28?" and then correcting the almost mistake.

It appears from the spy shots and Z28 molded script in some of the ZL1-specific parts means to me that if it weren't for the bankruptcy pause, the current ZL1 would be the Z/28. But I think they got the naming thing correct now.

So in my speculation, the ZL1 probably will go away. They made them pretty much flow-through after 2012 and while it was a hot commodity when new, now they're stalling in sales. They already curtailed production over the last couple of months and I don't know of anyone selling them at MSRP anymore.

I agree with this 100%. It won't be over the top and we're more likely to see a Z28 in the 6th Gen than a Z/28... IMO
