It would be interesting if this is just a ZL1.R which would make it more like the ZO7 package on the ZO6.

That is a thought worth considering... Would be interesting if GM went that route.

I think they learned the lesson from the last one. I wouldn't be surprised if it has a similar interior to the 1LE.

It makes more sense to me that the Z/28 will be offered as a performance package. Will it be tagged as a model unto itself, or as an option package similar to Z07 on the Z06? That's a marketing question. Either way, I see this car as taking a direct shot at the GT350R. I see it with no back seat, weight reduction, yet being marketable as a daily driver, in other words something people will buy and drive on the street.
I for one, don't think the last Z/28 was a mistake, or anything to learn a lesson from. I think it served it's true purpose(s). It was a halo car that got everyone talking about the Camaro again. GM new the refresh was going to have it's critics, and they also knew that they had a brand new generation on the horizon. While they didn't sell out the Z/28's they made, they did get people talking about Chevrolet. The Z/28 was more of brand ambassador than a unit to generate profit in and of itself. It got people into dealerships to gawk, and many of them drove off in a new Chevrolet of one type of another. Also don't forget about all of those beautiful LS7's that now found themselves homeless.
