Otherwise, its just a pricey and monumental GM R&D/Marketing experiment. With the price increase across the board for the 6gens, I'd be more interested in how GM is going to reposition the Z28 to create more demand for them. Maybe the 1LE becomes the Z28 with 1LE price tag, at which point it's more than capable of taking on the gt350 on all fronts.
I would agree with that last bit, except that renaming the new 1LE as the Z28 would kinda cheapen the name that the 5th gen Z28 has made for itself. gotta be a bigger difference between SS and Z28 to actually be a Z28 and live up to the name.
