Al can say that kind of stuff all day. Until we see a ring time from the ZR1 I wouldn't get your hopes up about the Camaro being king of the ring at GM.



I get you want to see Camaro move...

I agree with you, but there was a whole thread here about the difference between / and non / Z cars lol.

I thought we established the / was dropped from the Z/28 after 1969 but the 70 and 71 cars were still true to the original essence of the RPO but the emblem had changed to Z28



I agree but...

That's what I thought which is why I don't buy the real Z/28s have slashes and GM knowingly removed the / because a Z28 isnt the same as a Z/28.

People conveniently leave the 70 and 71 out of it,...

Didn't the badging on the 70 and 71 Z cars drop the slash IIRC? I know that GM people have said there is a difference between a slash and non slash but I am pretty sure the 70 and 71 cars had no...

That to me ticks the boxes of the Z/28.

It's clearly the best handling N/A camaro, it respects the heritage.

The 5th gen car simply put a lot of expectations on the badge

Those luxury SUVs have a place in the market though. Some of those Denali buyers wouldn't be caught in a Chevy so GMC fills the void.

Well to me the problem with that kind of price tag on a Camaro comes down to this. IMO once it hit's that kind of price range, there is going to be internal competition between the Camaro and the...

I don't want to be debbie downer but let's see if the Corvette ZR1 breaks the sub 7 minute lap before we start expecting a Camaro to do it. (For the record, I fully expect the ZR1 to break sub 7 or...

That corvette was the 5th gen Z06, it wasn't stripped and wasn't a pure track focused car like many here say the Z/28 needs to be. That's kind of apples to oranges IMO.

I'd also say the 1LE is...

What he said ^ stripping things out of the car actually makes them more expensive to produce.

Could we see a Camaro faster than the ZLE. Yes, if its powered by the LT5 or the TT LT7.

I personally just do not see a naturally aspirated Camaro out doing...

That's because even back then no one bought them :bellyroll::bellyroll:

But in all seriousness they do fetch more because they are rare compared to SS models

I really dislike the they knew they were less of a car so they used Z28 instead of Z/28. Didn't early 70s Z/28s (that many still consider true Z cars) start using the Z without the slash?

To me the Z/28 should be this.

Take the ZLE with a hot LT-1.

It would easily be the best performing NA Camaro. And that IMO is what a Z/28 should be
