Tail lights remind me of an old Acura. Front reminds me of when they squished the front of the Mustang for 2010. That's a lot of tire up front. And why keep the rear seats???...I was expecting more than 300 pounds when they said "significant" weight savings.

Impressive. I was waiting for Chevy to drop that LS7 into a Z/28 Camaro, so not terribly surprised, expect perhaps at just how track oriented it is (all the stuff they stripped out). Perhaps Ford should have run the Boss another year?

2014 Z/28
Just saw the pics out of NY auto show. 500hp/470lb.ft. And 300 lbs less than zl1. 7.0liter. "Track focused" pulls 1.05g. Looks amazing. And I'm a boss owner. Can't wait for some battles!

A/C is optional. That's awesome. I'm sure it will be a hot performer. Though the rumor is to expect a price around $65k.

It looks like chevy is building a boss killer. If you read the specs its just a little bit better all around but its also going to be a little more money. Ok its going to be a lot more money. It almost sounds like GM bought a boss and took it apart to fix its shortcomings.(six piston brembos,tremec). It depends on what the final msrp is on weather they can sell them.

I like what they did with the front, and I like (a lot) what they did with the rear... but they didn't fix the side that makes every color look like the car from the door back is a different shade. I know it's shadows, but it's quite obvious to me on every color. Also think the side makes it look like three desgin teams worked on it... and they wouldn't let them talk to each other. I really want to like it, but still can't. So I'm hoping even harder that the Ford boys don't wreck the 2015 design.

I still think the Boss is the better looking car. The Chevy may have more power and be quicker, but it will be far from being a daily driver. The ride will not be as great as the Boss. The Boss, you can take to the track and daily driver, if you so wish and be comfortable.
