I like the Z28. I'm not too into flashy cars with cladding and such on them. just simple basic all business. keep it on the low you know kind of a sleeper style.

To me that would be the ultimate setup!!!
The cam swap comes first though

Don't settle!! The old saying, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" applies. That's why so many aftermarket suppliers are in business. Every time I settle for something that's not quite what I want I still keep looking til I find what I wanted in the first place. I personally don't like the Z28 nose and I'm not a big fan of lots of cladding. I think the WS6 "nostrils" are too much. I have a Black 98 Formula with factory Chrome 5 spokes and the look is what I was after, clean but looks like it means business.

Z's look too much like the V6 versions, so I find them boring. 
Same goes for the non-WS6 Firebirds. They just remind me too much of the slow f-bodies from the 80's and 90's.
If it were not for the WS6 T/A, I would probably not own an LS1 F-Body.

I think the z28's are ugly unless there is extensive aftermarket mods done. My buddy has a 98 z with a suncoast hood, spoiler, and west wings kit and it looks good. I wouldn't be cought in a stock looking Z, just my opinion!

Personally, I like em all. WS6/SS tops the charts Super damn sexy White/Black/SOM..Dayumn..
I do envy the heritage of the Z28's. Fekk GM stuck SS badges on every turd they could.. Asses.
Z28 would have to be pewter... or SOM. Those cars look killer.
Just my opinion

Well let's see...both me and my buddy were going a few MPH over the speed limit on the way home from the track a few weeks ago.
I have a Black 1999 Camaro Z28 (stock appearance). He has a Black 1998 Trans Am (aftermarket WS6 hood, chrome wheels, etc.).
Guess who got pulled over for 73 in a 55? NOT ME.
Oh yeah and by the way I have dumped duals and he has a catback so his car was definitely quieter than mine
