I won't be investing 60K+- just to have value depreciate 10K+ soon as I drive off the lot. I am currently searching for a first gen I can protour out.

and YES before you ask. . . . Z28 nomenclature would have gone a long way towards getting me over the shortcomings I previously mentioned. In addition I learned Z28 will be released as soon as 2014. I just can't wait that long for a Camaro so 1st gen here I come, maybe add a 2014 Z28 later. . . . OK don't be too offended anyone, I just can not justify twice the cost for the deficiencies I previously mentioned (personal opinions) to get upgraded suspension and a motor/supercharger upgrade.

I understand where you are on your outlook.

imo if you gotta have a Camaro and gotta have one now and what you see isnt in your vision and a first gen ( that can be fixed up ) is in the budget then I dont blame you.

I love driving my 10 like no other. Everytime I get behind the wheel its permagrin 100% but is it like getting in my 69 ? NO

Thanks again for the pics.

Great pics! Its gonna be really tough waiting out for this car (especially in my case). The zl1 definitely nailed the "Super Camaro" concept......this car gets all A's in my book. Thanks for sharing.

Great pic's thanks for sharing. It's almost like we are there....., well almost.

Perhaps some of these will drive themselves to CfestII.

dont know if this has been said b4 but anyone notice there is 3 door unlock buttons one on both doors and one in the middle of the dash. i know this isnt a finished ZL1 just somthing i noticed

bkscott · 04-10-2011, 12:41 PM

I also noticed that the front tires stick out past the front fenderlines. So will this be corrected with some new offsets on the wheels, or a possible downgrade in tire size?

sed34 · 04-10-2011, 08:10 PM

just came back from the auto show. I had a blast. The first place i went was the zl1. Let me tell you. pictures does not give this car justice. Seeing it in person was something else. I have never driven a ss before until today. I floored that mug. I like the feel of the car. They were test driving all kind of cars. The volt, acadia, cts-v, etc. did you guys test drive some?

sed34 · 04-10-2011, 08:22 PM

cts-v
