That's gonna tick off a few ZL1 owners, and devalue some ZL1's. I was not fond of the G5 BUT, this is a much more refined looking model on a body style I am not in love with. The front cap upgrade looks nice and aggressive and the new rear taillights are about as good as you can get with the rear end.

LS7 and Z28 = Win for the Camaro.


Might have to look into trading in the Boss302!

Synchronize your watches guys.I wonder how long it will take to see the first clone;).I agree that stripes should be an option.

Nice front end. Tail lights look full-size. Nice looking overall.

I've been told it's three seconds a lap quicker around Waterford than the ZL1. Msrp is going to be interesting, prolly north of 60k(brake package is 10k alone) and worth every penny imo. Too bad it didn't come out on the 13 skin, those Lexus SC400 tails are painful, but seem to look much better with the LS7

She's pretty.......mucho apologies for the politics......just can't get past the bail out crap. Will NOT own a <span style="text-decoration: underline">new</span> Chevy (GM) car for the foreseeable future. If you can't run a business, you should just fade away.....

Sure looks like it, maybe more of a matte finish. I have never liked the new Camaros until this one. Was not impressed with the ZL1 either. The slightly redesigned front and rear is an improvement. Not crazy about the rear wing but maybe it will grow on me. I own an 08 ZO6 and the LS7 motor is a rocketship for a production engine. Thought I read somewhere that the HP rating for the Z28 is 500, presumably not to ruffle the feathers of the ZO6 owners. Doesn't bother me. It's probably the identical engine as in the Corvette, just the HP was rated at a lower RPM level than the Vette. I like the black wheels too. All around a nice car. I can see now the dealers adding a &quot;market adjustment&quot; add on to the sticker.
