Interesting responses on pricing...although I believed this car was built to target the Boss (not currently available).

Boss cost less than a Shelby and for good reason. Not sure why GM would take the Z28 and make it cost more than a ZL1 which is built to compete with the Shelby. I guess they don't care since all will be sold and the Boss isn't on the market right now?

Its not built in response to the Boss. The Z28 will crush the Boss easily. In fact, it will be a lot faster than most than cars on a track.

The 1LE was the direct competitor of the Boss.

The Z28 is a unique car for small unique market.

Yep, basically designed to destroy anything in the pony car segment on a racetrack with turns.
