I can appreciate your bias and point of view. Your opinion is different than mine and the way I see it. Nice to be able to agree to disagree. No harm, no foul here IMO.

A$$ backwards marketing still holds here based on this previous marketing by Chebby:

1990s 1LEs were TRACK CARS...Z28s were mainstream "performance image" Camaros.
1998 - 2002 Z28s were - again - mainstream, with THE SS Z28 The SLP performance upgrade Camaro. And again IIRC 1LEs were "TRACK CAR CAMAROS", yes?

So, like I originally stated, GM Chebby marketing is ignoring their previous designation and hierarchy tier for the Z28 in the
2nd
3rd
4th
Generation which they have sold millions.

What's next; the Camaro Corvair Monza???

Who got burned?

Who cares what GM did 30 years ago? They went back to the Z/28 roots with this car. They are making it lighter, faster, quicker, handle better, and be more noisy than the normal camaro. Exactly what they did with the 1967 Z/28 vs a regular SS camaro. The only difference is they are using a bigger engine in it because they can.


You do realize that for a specialty car today it's done very well as far as sales go?
