I think I'd like it even better if it included the open "coves" / brake cooling / styling intakes that have been shown on the new Bumblebee car. It looks much better and more complete than the suggestions of an inlet that the current car has.

The tires look pretty damn aggressive. I really hope the fronts have been widened to 275s or so (something the SS needs to get as an option).

If you're saying that they're testing various Z28-specific parts, maybe even most of them (except badges/hood/wheels), then I agree.

If you are under the impression that your statement contradicts my argument, you are wrong. The vehicle in question is preproduction at best, and is not confirmation of anything except that GM is testing a supercharged V8 Camaro.

I find it funny that they went to the trouble of placing tape over the bowtie emblem on the rear panel, yet there's a huge bowtie plastered on the door panels.

I can understand your confusion in how they are acting over there. Its because its been a long time since you went to a Camaro FAN website.

Boy why doesn't the Fbodfather come here as often as he used to? Man I just can't seem to figure it out. Any guesses?
Nail meet Head.

Utter shame.

Agreed, it seems we have some fans of the late Iraqi Information Minister in this thread. There is no Z28, nothing to see, move along. There is no paper on the dash, that's an American lie!

So am I, but I refuse to post there much for certain reasons. Lets not continue to make this thread into a forum hating thing though. Take it to PM with people if you really want to.

Wow, way to take this thread into yet another direction. I think most, if not all would like to see a Z28. Some just dont think it should be what we are seeing tested so far.

I am, but you'll rarely find me over there, although I simply couldn't resist posting in their version of this thread with the same sentiments I've posted here.

This site is interesting, and you even learn stuff. Thankfully, it is not full of fanboys with blinders.

Camaro5 is, and thus is nothing more than entertainment - on many different levels.

Of course, that is just my opinion.

I can only take Camaro5 in very small doses. Every thread is a sycophant circle jerk.
