Leave the Intimidator package with Monte Carlo or replacement.
I'd like to see it stick to the tried and true models that it draws its looks from..
RS..
SS..
Z/28
But not blow it by making them glorified sticker packages.
Maybe throw it a Pace car...spec'd as a real pace car, not just stickers.
I can make my own sticker clone...lot's of Mustang ones running around.

Well, what would be the "fluffy puff's" misson statement?
Will the"fluffy puff" have the focus that comes from decades of unforgiving competition, (and championships) in the crucible of road racing?
Will the "fluffy puff" have decades of brand equity?
Should the "fluffy puff" get the good brakes/bushings/shocks, or doesn't it matter?
In fact, what will be your reference point in developing the "fluffy puff" package?
How will you market the "fluffy puff"?
And it's not like getting an A&F shirt for $40 and an Old Navy shirt for $15, it's more like getting them both for the same price. Unless you are saying that a "fluffy puff" could be EXACTLY like a Z/28 but for 1/3 the price.

That is what I am saying. You are the one who said that you would pay more for the name. So how is that different from the $40 t shirt? If the "fluffy puff" Camaro would be identical to the Z/28 but would cost less then I would be all over the "fluff". As for marketing, if they build it like they should it will sell itself no matter the name.

I would pay more. But the "fluffy puff" won't cost $15,000 (as opposed to $40,000). The "fluffy puff" would cost the same.
Is this getting silly yet?

Your opinion now means absolutley nothing.
Seriously though, why pay more for it, just because of what it says on the side.
Personally i REEEEEEEEEEEEEALLY HOPE they build the top dog Z/28, but at the same time, i wouldnt pay more for it because of its name.
I just dont understand the logic behind this, its not like clothing, because its not a "brand" name. its a model.
You are still buying a Chevy, not a BMW or a Ferrari, i can understand that. But simply paying more for a badge is beyond me.

My point basically is that I wouldn't pay more just for a name.

My lord I have created a monster...hahaha.
Ok maybe not Fluffy Puff....hows about Sailor Moon, or Panty Dropper?
Nah.....I didn't think so either.
I think it would be cool as hell to see a new designation be made for this car. I won't be disapointed in Z-28 but I think since Cheby is going a different route this time with the Camaro in general maybe it is time to start a new name...maybe not.
