No one believed me either, when my buddy called and said he saw some new Camaros with LS7's being tested in north Texas a few months ago either. He said they were awesome but they wouldn't let him take pics of it.

If GM builds the Z28 with either the LS7 or the LSA it will come with a full factory warranty. I don't care if it has an LS7 or an LSA as long as I can get it with the wheels from the SEMA car.
Good point. Maybe the price will come down some in the next year

Question

Now that would be a bad-*** car if they built it.
I'm not so sure it would have the estimated hp that is stated here for 1 reason. I don't think they would want the Camaro to have more hp than Chevy's number 1 main hp car, the Corvette. I may be wrong though???

I like the LS7 Camaro in the newest issue of HOT ROD magazine. Orange with the matte black hood.

I tink GM should drop the ZR1 engine in the new Camaro. Would be the ultimate fun and a much more usable daily car than the Vett.

Isn't it 3800lbs curb weight? Which probably means it's gonna be less in real world?
