Default Chevy just made my choice of C7 Z, Viper, GT350, Z/28 much easier.

Picked this up yesterday for $22,000 under MSRP (before GM Card earnings!). It may not outperform all of the above, but at $54,000 for a 2015 model with 10 miles, it should keep me happy for a while.

They are really bad *** for the price point and excellent road course cars.

Now that is a steal! Beautiful ride, and exactly the same color combo I would of selected.

$54,000 for a 2015 Z28? That's definitely worth jumping on. Red is the best color for those too.

Are you freaking serious?
You got that car for $54k?
I know it is not the popular opinion, but I like the Z28's. The problem was their pricing. IMO, the big consumable cost for that car is tires. But the Trofeo R's have a much better treadlife than an R6 with probably 80-90% of the performance. I'd say they won't heat cycle out as fast either, but they'll be dead before then. Enjoy it. And I hope you plan to track the **** out of it. Ceramic paint coating, clear bra it and let it rip.
Seriously...congrats. I thought only the big incentives were on '14's?

Chevy is offering a 20% rebate on the oldest 15% of Camaros (all models) on each dealers lot. On some dealers' lots, that included 15's. The dealership I bought from had one on sale for $53,819 and an identical red one with slightly newer VIN for $76,150. Both were new with 10 miles or less.

I believe they still have a white 2014 with no A/C for $53,280. Ourisman Chevy in Bowie MD.

How did you get a Z28 for $54k? I don't get it, I think this makes the Z28 vs GT350 question a lot more interesting.

Great deal, I am not a huge Camaro fan, but if I were to get one the Z28 would be it!!!

How do you think the folks feel that bought one prior to the $15K rebate, that sucks. They should follow Chryslers lead and at least give them some sort of credit when they trade.

Not really. GT350 will be out in late 2015 as a 2016 model. There will not be a 2016 Z/28 as the Gen 6 Camaro will be coming out in 2016. Z/28 has much more limited production at 500 units a year. GT350 is anticipated to have 5000. Three words: CARBON CERAMIC BRAKES!!!!!

Many modern day supercars often get labeled, "thinly disguised race car", justifiably or not. In the case of the Z/28, there is no disguise; if the track is your arena, you can do no better, especially at that price! Well done!

Nice car. For 54k, that's a steal.
