If the CTS-V is any guide, it should be plenty fast.

Where are you going to see it at? Sebring?

No, not at all. I was thinking about the NYIAS which is two weekends from now. I misspoke.

We'll see what happens. Not trying to be a downer, I just feel it's a little soon for this. But again, maybe unlike the 5th gen, we will actually see multiple iterations of the ZL1s with different specs during the lifetime of this car. Maybe the 6th gen won't actually have that long of a production run in general before a 7th gen, especially since Ford seems to intend to move more aggressively toward an all new car in 2020 based on rumors. Who knows.
being first to market is rarely a bad move. when it comes to camaro vs mushtang, my guess is very small % swing buyers to go after in the hipo category...first to market is huge.

in terms of keeping things interesting for the next 5 years, there's still z28, and a refresh or two, i really dont think spacing them out for this reason is good. they do their due engineering and developement diligence and put the car out when it is ready.

Damn sounds like sex! Definitely can hear the blower. I'm excited not because I'm going to buy a ZL1 but so I can get parts from it whenever I pull the trigger on a 6th gen

Nice crisp shifts, loud exhaust and SC whine? What's not to like.

There were some who guessed it must be the turbo 4. Wow, not many people would think that car sounds like anything but a huge humpin' V8!!!

At 0:004, did you hear it get rubber as it drove over an imperfection in the roadway???
