An LT5 Camaro would be priced around $100k which would still leave me in the market, but remember how hard it was for GM to sell the $72k Z/28 back in 2014?

Most people don't drive either hard enough to justify either, but as someone who tracks often and participates in other motorsports, the LT5 in the Alpha chassis would destroy any record times set by the C7 ZR1. GM is not going to allow that. They won't even acknowledge that the ZLE is faster than the Z06 and as someone that's driven both I can tell you the Alpha chassis is faster.
I think you actually are agreeing with me. You and about 7 other people would buy a 100k Camaro IMO.
