That's exactly what I'm saying. Unlike the GMMG 5th gens which were about the complete package which included a LSx based stroker motor.

 

Ok good then were on the same page I just didn't follow.

I guess in one way the 02 ZL-1's were close to their bretheren...just not near as spartan. They used SS trim and options which were used on the original ZL-1's. Basicly what happened with the ZL-1 was that the options on the car were left up to the buyer. Almost every car was ordered with leather interior deluxe rearview mirror, and things of that nature because of who bought them. If I had to pick one of the cars that really represented a true ZL-1 it would have been Mike's car Grumpy's Toy(69 I think?)
That car was a drag car through and through out.

At the same time I guess you would also have to understand that at the time the ZL-1 was built having 427 especially one with a C5R block was about as close to a ZL-1 status engine without actually calling it ZL-1.

Either way I love the cars, and I really hope that GM makes them again on a large enough scale for us consumers to buy and not the super rich.

 

if they do away with the Z28 on the camaro im buying a new dodge challenger then..Because thats plain stupid ..Go ahead and lets not call it a camaro eather ..Who gets paid to think for this company anyway .Probibly some one that never owned one im sure..

 

Who said anything about them doing away with the Z-28 as a name? Not to mention the fact that who cares what they call it as long as it is a Camaro. I would rather have a Camaro less a Z-28 rather than a Z-28 name and no Camaro....not like they would get rid of it any how.

I would count on Chevy doing away with the name, but in the end what does it matter?

 

It matters a whole bunch.

 

But not more than no Firebird.

 

He was right....

 

i guess he was!
Oh mr.cousin "far see-er", Oh cousin great oracle, what more does our future have in store for us!!
bow down you fools, for the "cousin" might speak and his words are to be heeded!

 

 

Not necessarily, it depends. He didn't say what the time frame was. Anything can happen.

Not to mention, at the time of the original post, there is no way it could have been known.

 

My cousin's friend's co-worker's boss' niece has a boyfriend whose dad is an engineer for Tupperware and he has an engineer friend that works at GM and that guy works in the SUV division but he said there is 0% chance of the Z28 coming back and the Camaro "R29Zulu" will be top dog. I asked how he knew and he said he heard a "tinking" sound on the pipes in his building and he deciphered it as morse code from Bob Lutz himself that there would be no Z28 and the R29Zulu would be the new Camaro king. It will have a supercharged 8 liter with 2,000 HP, a 12 bolt rear, Allison 10 speed transmission, get 50 mpg, and MSRP starts at $10,000.

 

I think he translated the code wrong. It's obviously the "Camaro STFU" Edition. Jason's been hinting at it all along! That's why he setup the website: http://www.camarostfu.com

 

And people would still be b!tching about the weight !

 

wow he was right.

 

He's right, there's not going to be a Z28 package. There's going to be a Z28 model.

Engineers aren't always the most informed people.
