All this, dripping with Z/28- ness.

In bright red without the 20inch wheels, yep that is basically what I want.

Um, one with a DOHC 3.6L V6 that was so well designed for reliability within the warranty, that I'd only take it to the dealer for new tires, spark plugs, and oil.

I didn't know Ferrari made or even cared to copy a Camaro type variant. What does it look like?

I would too, but I wouldn't like the price.. The ZL1 w/ the LS9 is about the price of a small house..

Yours is almost like mine, except yours weighs 100 lbs more. Must be 'cause it's a Firebird.

Yeah that is why. It actually has some sound dampening, the DSG weighs a little more, and it gets heavy duty window motors too.

Regarding the Ferrari, the 612 is a 2 door 4 seat sports car which makes it somewhat like an Italian SuperMaro.

I overstated the power in my post, it only has 540HP. But it does in fact weigh over 4000lbs.

My ultimate Camaro would be...A Convertible SS or Z/28 with 400hp and a 6spd. 18in wheels and leather interior such as that from the orange concept vehicle, along with the paint scheme. Weight under 3700 is fine with me. Maybe nav, but heated seats and a good stereo is a must.
