People certainly over estimate how much more the 6th generation 1SS MSRP for over the 5th generation 1SS. Also people are throwing into the equation a bunch of dealer install options, while chevy still had the 5th generation Camaro up I optioned one up with all of the dealer add ons and was over $60,000 range for a 5th generation 2SS Camaro.
Though I can clearly see if you were the kind of person who order a 5th generation 1SS 1LE with no other options who was looking at a $37,500 MSRP (not counting discounts to keep things apples to apples) may be looking at this with worry. We will have to wait and see what the price structure looks like for both the 1LE and ZL1 Camaro though I really expect the ZL1 to start at about $65,000 at the most. |

The 70k+ camaro argument isn't as binary as 'to buy' or 'not to buy'. the z28's purpose was just too singular. Had it been more versatile, i think it would have sold marginally better. However, that would have defeated the entire purpose of the car. Now if the new zl1 starts at 70k (which I wholeheartedly doubt), a bunch of us would moan and groan, but I hate to say some of us would still buy it....myself included. I mean, for less than 80k, you have a machine that can walk down some of Germany's best, charge your smart phone, take the wifey out to the pinnacle of fine dining at Golden Corral, and still fit a small kid or two in the back seat. The purchase process of a 70k+ zl1 simply wouldn't be as enjoyable as one costing 10k less. So even if you're right, it would still sell, albeit not as well. Some may wait for the gt500 (which I believe will carry an absurd out-the-door price), some may look at a new stingray or used z06, and others may downgrade to the 1le. But I doubt it would be as much as a sales disaster as the gen5 z28. |

I've been saving for this beast and 65k is justifiable for me to pull the trigger. But damned if I do get that feeling of omg this is gonna be that price of 70+/- k. Then I'll just have to settle for my 1le to Ruth Chris and that's a bummer.

Of course I have no idea who Cpt Vince Noble, lelzlelz is but I never made any kind of comment or judgement about him. I only meant that I happen to Know Al.O, and if you knew him, you'd understand that he is a man of his word. That's all. |

Wow, you're one astute driver. Is that not the ZL1 label on the back left of the car?

I wonder how many ZL1's GM has built running about being tested? And who is driving this unit? GM folk or a 3rd party group?
