I used the blue bowtie because thats what color it was when the Chevy Truck shared the Emblem with the top of the line Camaro. You did mean top of the line wont share its badge with trucks the way it did in 69

I was referring to the SS badge on sedans and trucks.

Yes but the Z designation as in the Z71 is on the trucks as well if you were going the Z28 exclusive argument.

I can honestly say that I've never seen a Z/28 truck or sedan.

Yeah, the Z series road racers to Chevy to me is like the M series to BMW. I think it should be ZL1 though because thats what the COPOs were. Z28 should be an LS2 GMachine in my book. I also dont care what years SS were not built or what years Z28 was built. I care about the definitions what the cars were.

I agree. The difference is the Z28 guys, which there are more of, do care.

You stated the new Camaro would not share its badge with sedans and trucks.

The previous SS Camaro shared its SS badge with with the Monte Carlo SS and Impala SS. So its badge was shared with other sedans, and I'm saying the new SS will as well.

I just dont think Z28 should be the 500 hp LS7 and be put out of the majority of consumers reach. I definately think there should be an LS7 Camaro with a Z designation.

Well, a 500 hp Camaro remains to be seen. Horsepower will not come as easily in afew years. Emissions are going to be a tougher hurtle.
