The 2011/2012 Camaro Z28 prototypes have lost some of its front end camouflage, exposing the grille, new lower front fascia (which now features a front lip spoiler which extends out very aggressively). The shape and size of the aggressive hood cowl (with scoops) can also be made out in the photos. To our eyes, it looks like there may be a scoop at the front of the cowl and 4 inlet scoops in the middle of the cowl. The silver hood pins could be there just for testing purposes.
A set of 20-inch wheels, wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar G:2 tires appear on the Z28 prototype and the brakes are those from the Cadillac CTS-V.
While the photos don't show it, the photographer also noticed a few pieces of body-colored tape across the trunk lid on this prototype, which may be covering the fastener points for a rear spoiler.

I'm liking what I see so far. The success of the Z28 will be determined by the price. Considering the popularity of the 5th gen so far, the Z28 should be a hit for GM if the price is right.

I just fear that since they are takin so ****** long to get this car out that the GT500 will be making 700 hp by then and will destroy this. Its already gettin close since the GT500 makes 550 now.
Do they really need to test this ****** thing so long? The engine is in other cars the rest of it is gonna be mostly stock SS parts. I dont think you need to road test the ****** shocks for years. GET IT OUT!!

^^^^ I definately see Ford uping the HP on the Cobra in response to this. Not that they really have to. Unless GM sheds some weight on this beast the Cobra still has a great weight advatage.
