I'm a ford guy obviously. That said I want the zl1 to be awesome so ford will improve improve the gt500. Competition breeds awesomeness as we all are seeing. 580hp Camaro? Awesome, magnetic ride? Incredible. Just what competition is all about.
The zl1 has the potential to be a serious contender, especially once some initial tweaks and bugs get worked out and the car evolves. We all know the 2007 gt500 was just ok in bone stock trim but now that 4 years have passed, the 2011 svtpp is quite a good value. I hope the same for the zl1. Maybe 4 years from now, as an automotive society, we'll have mid to low 11 second, 1g+, super muscle cars in the form of insane zl1 and gt500 offerings-hell maybe even an sc'd challenger/charger too, that would be great. Now that all said, I have to be totally honest. The op's title and first post really made me scratch my head. I signed up just to say he probably should keep those opinions to himself because he's single handedly fueling the fires on other sites to label camaro5 as a bad site. I'm no band wagon junkie but half the stuff he said wasn't very well founded. Do this site a solid and put a grain of thought into your posts. Your making these guys look bad. (I'm guessing I'll get an instant ban but it's obvious I mean the best, do as you will)

You'd have to be an idiot to show up at the machine gun fight with a knife.
Seriously, let's all lay off the mushrooms and wait for the cars to come out. You can pic up a brochure from any manufacturer and read how that's the best car out there. Prove it. May the best car win. Won't make a rats ass to my SS which one does

You do know that the ZL1 exists as a response to the GT500 right? one could say ford "forced" chevy to build a ZL1 using your own logic. |
