Over 9 years ago some of us fought a battle...
.....for pretty damned close to what Chevy re-introduced today as the 2014 Z/28....right Charlie? It's been a long 9+ years, but it appears like it's been worth the wait....as long as they have a proper shade of blue that is
For those who don't know the story, a few of us even got blocked or reduced posting priviledges because of a few hurt feelings at GM over our voracity...mine are still in effect today.
BTW, you're welcome....

- More power than an SS: check
- Track oriented performance: check++
- Limited options: check
- All efforts to be in the spirit of the original Z/28: check

Wow, Doug, thanks for coming back to post. The above is interesting to me. I figured Charlie left (and became prominent at GMI) because of the censored-like atmosphere that arose here. Heck, I don't even post/visit here nearly as much as I used to. Would be nice if the reintroduction of the Z28 also rekindled some old-timers' interest in this site.

I doubt it's gonna bring many back. I come back sometimes just when something important happens myself. Seems that many left disgruntled and this place just became so slow. Most of us have nothing to fight for anymore. Until the 6th Gen at least!

Everything is perfect...except the blue. The one true medium blue they had for the 5th gen they canned. Kinetic blue is done after the hot wheels car according to GM's literature.

Agreed ...... there were some heated debates going on quite a few years back (pre- 2006 concept) and I think they FINALLY hit the nail on the head!
