            I'll bet that the profit margin on those things is so steep that they can't afford NOT to do it! The price tag must be approaching Corvette territory, though.

            I wonder if it will be a coupe-only vehicle or whether you'll be able to get it as a vert too?

                  Who give s a shit about ford! There dong fine. What's ven better is the article says the price will be well under the corvette which means it will be well under the GT500. Just when Ford thinks there gonna come out with a better performance vehicle they get another slap in the face! Again GM comes out with another best bang for buck!

                      Its a good they they are doing the Z28, the GT may have scared some SS's. It will be a good match. GT500 finally gets an aluminum block. If they can keep the weight down they may be faster. I doubt it though, they are going air bag crazy for 2011.

                              Thats gonna be a sweet car....so are they gonna do away with the 1SS and the 2SS and go back to traditional Z28, and Z28 SS. it seems like they kinda went the opposite direction with naming the Camaros since they have come out.
