Not sure what's more funny the title of that article or its contents. Their reasoning is poor, you can't point to particular parts on the Z28 then point to other more expensive vehicles and argue what they're arguing. At the end of the day its a Camaro on the zeta platform, not an Audi, not a Porsche, not an Aston Martin, not an AMG, just a Camaro.
To an extent, yes. But trash like the above motor trend article keeps popping up with regards to the Camaro over the past few years. If magazines have taught me anything is that they're on tight budgets and will gladly be sell out hype men. Not saying motor trend is here, but I find a hard time believing stuff like that above article comes from educated and unbiased writers...
$80,000 is too much, 4000lbs is too heavy and too many changes need to be done for racing.
Unfortunately, removal of Carbon Ceramic Brakes is manditory. Another change inbound will likely be No disc over 380mm. That means the z28's brakes need swapped out anyway. The 305 tire was a no-no up front, I think it still is... z28 wheels/tires may need to be swapped out later on. A z28 isn't a z28 without that equipment.
