I love the squinty look on the front end and the fact that they strayed away from the roundish taillights

Am I mistaken or is that Flat White paint?

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.

Looks really good to me. I've been on the fence about buying a new Camaro for the past few years. This Z/28s got me lifting one leg off the fence rail. If they can truely reduce, say 300 lbs. without checking the A/C delete box, The General will be heading in the right direction for me.

I have always loved Camaros and always will but I still can't understand why Chevrolet has to have their big bowties on the center front grill and the rear panel on the Gen5's RS, SS and now Z/28's. And then you have a tiny RS, SS and now Z/28 emblems on the LH side of the bowtie---everyone on the planet knows that it's a Chevy. Aren't the Gen5's supposed to be modeled after the 1969 Camaros? I think Chevrolet should've stuck to tradition and properly place the emblems where they belong fenders and rear panels too. The Gen5 ZL1 blew me away when it came out but advertised ZL1 emblems on the car? That maybe the one car that you could have bowties on the center grill and rear panel. Anyone out there feel the same...or maybe not. Like to hear your thoughts.

Very exciting news to hear of the return of the Z28. One thing that Chevrolet MUST do for this car is to include Rally Stripes as part of the Z28 package, it won't be a Z28 without them!! With the exception of the 69 pace car, the Z28 Camaros were the only Camaros to come from the factory with Rally Stripes so IMHO it's imperative that Chevy includes them in the Z28 package.
