Slash or no slash

I've recently noticed that the slash is catching on.

What say you?

It never occured to me the slash even remotely mattered...I personally don't think it does one bit...just my obnoxious .02

Eh....maybe you're right. I just think that the slash is alittle jaunty.

Kind of how US Army Rangers wear their berets.

Z28

It's an RPO and only had the / for the 1st 3 years, which never made much sense to me. (must not have to Chevrolet either 70-02)

Things must really be dull when we resort to talking about the slash on Z28.

Going Z28 but if it evolved into a different style that would be fine too.

Doesn't really matter to me as long as we get a car that is worthy of the Z28 (or Z/28) name.

I thought the berets made them look like interior decorators.


Hey, they should put the slash in if it makes the Z28 folks happy...

... us SS drivers won't be bothered...

... we'll just pass 'em up on our way to buy the top performance version anyway.

The / is for people who can't let the past go.....

I think most peopl recognize it as Z28 minus the /. I do think if they use Z28 on the 5th gen though, both the Z28 type face and an overall Camaro logo redesign should be done...like the Corvette and Mustang.

I like the slash . A Z/28 badge looks cooler than a Z28 badge IMO. It's all about the slash . And yes, I can let the past go

I voted Z28. It looks much more modern than Z/28. It's an RPO code and those are only alpha numeric.

I don't see any Corvette Z/06's running around, do you?

Correction. The 67's had no badges saying that it was an RPO Z28. Only 68-69 had the slash. However... slash all the way baby!
