Looks cool and the LSA is sure sweet.
Anyone else have a problem with them calling it a ZL1?
I didn't really like the fact that the Z28 would be better than the SS, but who cares since Chevy slaps an SS badge on everything these days.
I think ZL1 should be left alone, those were the rarest from the dealer weren't they?
Like 50 made or some ****?
IMO they should come up with a new name, since its going to be a first time mass production of a SC Camaro, and the most powerful made...
I would also love to see a Z28 in the form of a "track pack" car...like the Mustang did, much lighter and less optioned.

if Chevy really wanted to hammer Ford's ***, i think they should produce this bodystyle for only one more year......then make 2013 camaro a badass updated supercharged version of the 4th gen......it would cause the GM retro cars value climb like crazy in the coming years (especially the ZL1), and it would set themselves apart from the direction of Ford/Mopar.....it's just my opinion, i thought the whole retro thing was cool at first, but it seems like at some point they'll get old (no pun intended) and have to pick up where they left off.....this ZL1 is badass, but i wonder what an updated 4th gen would look like

Chevy is already planning to downsize the future gen Camaro using a variation of the Alpha platform which it will share with the new Cadillac ATS. They also said the CTS might share this platform too.

LSA is from the Cadillac CTS-V. Basically its an LS3 with a TVS1900 supercharger on top as an LS9 has a TVS2300 on it
