what will the Z/28 badge look like?

In keeping with the design theme of the 5th gen, I'd say it should be like the 1st gen badge, but with an edgier, modern look to it. Not a direct copy, but a definite link to the past - just like the 5th gen :)

as evidenced by the way I typed it, slash it is.

I would much rather see something like I described, as opposed to a badge like the Z06 badge.

1st Gen style WITH the slash, maybe a modern intepretation but definitely with the slash.

I say slash it too, but I agree, give it a sharper look somehow. The shear mention of / does invoke lots of emotion, just goes to show we are serious about one thing..........Camaros! Oh, and solos!:p

Wouldn't it be crazy if internal documents surfaced that showed GM took the slash out of Z/28 to save 1.1¢ per car?

I had 4 replaced in my '02 (both driver and passenger the first summer I had it, then 1 each summer for the next 2 summers.) But it was under warranty, so they made nothing off me. lol

I say either with a slash, or replace the "06" with "28" on the Z06 badge:

I did a Z28 emblem based on that a while ago:

Yeah, that's nice. Anything without any divider between the Z and 28 is nice looking.

When I see 'Z/28' it makes me thing 'zee slash twenty eight'. Keep it clean, no slash.

I'm not! :p The slash died after 1969. The early 2nd gens had a dash and by the end of the second gen run, it was gone as well.

Z28 is so much cleaner and modern looking. Besides, the name comes from the original option code... RPO-Z28. Neither slash, nor dash should even exist. ;)

I disagree about copying the 1969 emblem.

But I do think a slash should be there.

i just wanted to stir the pot on this subject and say that this is all really an issue of weather or not the concept camaro is retro or not. because as jg95z28 pointed out the slash died with the 69 so.... if the concept is retro slash it but if the concept is a modern bla bla bla bla whatever version of the camaro's heritage.... it should stick with the heritage of the car and leave the slash back in 69 where it ended the first time

How about a new design? We had the slash in the 60's, the multi colored version in the 70's and 80's, and the plain black of the 90's. A new version would be cool. It's just a badge, let it be a statement of today.

Although I am a fan of the slash, I agree with this a lot more. I want something NEW, even if its just a badge! :D
