She doesn't need to win brownie points. She was here when the cool crowd was still here.

Those were the good old days. Seems everyone has moved to Facebook groups instead of forums.

People who write bs like this have no clue how making cars work. Any change on horsepower would mean paying for all the emission tests, certifications, etc that are necessary to get the car on the road. Having testcars that drive thousands of miles to make sure nothing breaks and they can deliver the full waranty. Adjusting the whole production like to add the new parts that have to be put on the car.
If you have that in mind, just think about how much sense it makes that GM would invest millions of dollars into all these process to bring out 1,000 special editions cars, after they pretty much let the Camaro die without investing a dime into the car since the 2020 re-refresh. Also GM pretty much confirmed the things the only truthworthy site with GM insider stuff, MC&T, posted: MY2024 is the last Camaro year, there will be a Panther themed special edition that pretty much is a typical sticker package with a unique emblem.

Or even better Mary Barra wants to look like the the last bastion of ICE loving CEOs. Remember Rick Wagner got his SSR. And remember the stupid crap they did to “launch on time” to meet his commitment date. This could be a go simply as a directive from Mary. And as much as people (even on this site) like to blast her. This really wouldn’t surprise me. GM has certainly done some head scratching things in my career there so let’s hope there is one more here.

Holy shit did that ever get confirmed as true? I always heard it was an unlikely rumor.

Is it possible is it a track only car? Although that's more of an exotic car thing to sell a non-street legal performance car. I've seen several 6gen ZL1's at track events that were trailered in, those cars probably already live like a track-only car already. Guessing there's a market for this.

I was always told it was Mark, but maybe it just took him to approve it.

bottom line: if the ZL1 1LE isn't enough for you i don't even know what to say.

The Camaro has been dead for years. Its corpse is slowly sliding down the chute into the trash bin. GM couldn’t care less, which is why their grand send off is a mediocre sticker package. The 5th gen had brought the Camaro back in a big way but they phoned in the 6th gen and this is the result. The day Al O was transferred was the day the Camaro officially died.

I still want something powered by an LS7. Sadly they are all very expensive these days.
