The link doesn't work. I think our Bulletin Program edited out a word in the URL.

That is sweet though. The wheels look killer on it.

I would take that over the ZR1 in a heartbeat.

[NOPANTS-68]

I wouldn't do business with John Hennessy if I had Larry Ellison's money.

I like it ..........but.............that front end looks like someone, punched it in the mouth and gave it a fat lip!!! Pretty bulky.......
the big question is............will you even see the base car???:smoke:

For those who were at SEMA and saw the red LS7 Camaro, well we were talking with our contact at GMPP and he had said that originally there was an LS9 in there and the Corvette people had a fit and didn't want a special project GMPP Camaro stealing the thunder away from the ZR1. So out came the LS9 and in went the LS7.

Isn't that typical for the Corvette boys? Just like the 4th gen being listed low on power.

You know the most famous story involving Corvette's influence in the company was the demise of the Grand National. Buick had wanted to do a replacement car when the new architecture came out a few years later but the hierarchy downtown scrapped the idea and turned it's new chassis into Front Wheel Drive, thus killing any future Grand Nationals. It is my understanding from some of the old-timers I've talked to here that the Corvette people were furious over the GN's performance and that's what prompted the switch. Or so I was told.

Simply put...it was faster than the Corvette and over $30,000 cheaper.

No good. THe word ba$t@rd is filtered and renders the link unuseable.

Just replace the 7 ******* with the correct spelling of b@$t@rd and there you go.

Sweet concept. If price difference wasn't a concern I'd rather have a C6 than a 5th gen Camaro
