So instead of 4300lbs, it's ONLY 4000, and you have no A/C or HID's

And it's louder than balls.

:dumb::dumb::dumb:

 

You say that like it's a bad thing (well I guess the 4,000 pounds is.....)

 

I am a fan of track cars that you can't order with A/C or sound systems. Keeps them in the hands of the people that want to really drive them.

I'm with you 100% on this, but I really don't like the 4k lbs. However, if it handles well and does all of the other stuff well.....

If its 300 lbs less than the ZL1 (Which is 4120), then it should weigh around 3800lbs.

 

So lets see

Camaro Z/28 -- 3820 lbs

Camaro SS -- 3920 lbs

Shelby GT500 -- 3852 lbs (3970 vert)

Mustang Boss 302 -- 3631 lbs

Corvette Z06 -- 3180 lbs

 

It could be worse

Yes, but none of them rip out the sound insulation, and air conditioning etc.

For 50K, I'd rather buy a very nice example of a Z06 with the same motor, and do everything better. Weight is the enemy of well, everything, especially on something someone wants to tout as a "track car".

 

Let's be honest, the potential buyers will be 99% drag racers who want the LS7 to play with.

I'd rather have A/C and HID's over reduced weight...

From the market report today:

General Motors (GM) rolled out the Z128 Camaro at the New York Auto Show yesterday (targeted for production by year's end),

with the plans to revive its Chevrolet brand both in the U.S. and potentially around the world, to expand the breadth of its portfolio.

 

 

LOL @ "Z128":lol:

Id rather have A/C and HID's too, HID's add what.... maybe 5lbs? I can understand the no a/c for people who mainly want a track car, but HIDs? Really? They dont weigh shit.

In what way?? Acceleration...nope. Speed.....nope. Handling.....nope. Braking.....nope. Shifting.....nope.

 

The car isn't even out yet so lets not bench race it...

 

A 100% stock boss on radials would outrun this.

 

Negative, TrackRat ran something like a 10.6 @ 140 in her BOSS with a KenneBell setup everything else 100% stock...
