Re: 2012 Camaro ZL1 Image and Specs Released!
Here's the best way to look at it.
SLP's ZL1
Chevrolet's ZL1
SLP's ZL1
- 2011 model
- Limited production - only 69 produced
- Conversion done in house at SLP
- $70k +
Chevrolet's ZL1
- 2012 Model
- Mass produced - at least more than 69 made
- Produced at the Camaro plant
- Hopefully will be under $50k (despite what you read elsewhere, price has NOT been determined)

I'm heading to the Chicago Auto Show this friday. I cant wait to take some pictures of this car! It looks awesome from what you posted! 
Personally, I think Z28 would of been the best name for the car. (Without getting into an arguement). But looks like Chevy is heading in a different direction, and I already like what I see. Keep up the great work!

Wow...do I call it or what? GM's SLP statement just released!!
http://slpcamaro.com/2011/02/09/gms-slp-zl1-statement/
Doesn't really say much beyond what I stated above. Well, that must be that. SLP will surely continue to make parts for our cars. They definitely have the experience!

On February 9, 2011 GM announced the addition of the ultimate performance ZL1 to
the Camaro line for 2012 MY, with production beginning in the first quarter of 2012.
Taking its name from the most elite and exclusive Camaro ever, ZL1 propels Camaro
into the realm of high performance technology providing an estimated minimum 550
supercharged horsepower, Nurburgring tuned suspension with magnetic ride control,
and an aggressive look including specific hood with carbon fiber insert and functional
extractor. Chevrolet is very excited to unveil this next chapter in the current Camaro
lifecycle.
Chevrolet is aware that SLP, a past upfitter of Chevrolet's 4th generation (1996-2002)
Camaro vehicle, has been marketing its own limited edition (69) ZL1 upfit package for
the 2011 Camaro model year only. Chevrolet and SLP have discussed SLP's ZL1 upfit
package, an offering honoring the heritage and legacy of Chevrolet's original 1969
Camaro ZL1. Chevrolet has no objection to SLP continuing its marketing and build-out
efforts to complete the run of its 2011 ZL1 upfit package.
