And it looks amazing:

But for $75,000, im not sure.

Would you buy it SlingShot?

 

[SlingShot]

No, I'm content with my ZL1 and soon to be Chevy SS. I think the Z/28 would be a great weekend warrior, but not so much for a daily driver.

Looks like a street legal COPO to me, pretty darn cool if you ask me.

Yup, basically a COPO for the track. Should be great for the few who want an amazing weekend track car, the rest will probably be in garage queen collections.

How many Camaro drivers can afford a Z/28?

I can buy a used SS and make it twice as fast for about half that price.

Great looking car but I'm not sure it will have the sales numbers they are expecting.

 

[Diehard]

Probably about the same price as a Chevy SS with a Hennessey HPE600 Supercharged SS Upgrade. (Guessing!)

It would cost you a lot more than you think to mod a SS to compete with a stock Z/28. Brakes alone would cost $10k, not to mention all the goodies just to keep the car cool. You could easily build a car to go faster in a straight line, but the first set of turns it over for you.

The Z/28 will sway some C7 buyers for sure at that price!

It's 13k for HPE600 upgrade.

So you are telling me that I can't make a stock SS better than the stock Z/28?

Found this SS For Sale here in Dallas (link below). Asking just over $32K.....that means I have $40K to play with before getting to the MSRP price of the new Z/28. I know for a fact that I could spend less than $25K and hang with the Z/28 on any road. And I bet mine would look better.

Oh, and this one already has cold air. Saving money already

Not gonna happen, a carbon ceramic brake kit alone will eat your budget.

Everybody seems to forget that fast in a straight line is not the only thing a fast car does. Take it from me, road racing RX7's against V8's and turbo 4's. Handling plays a big, big part in a track car.
