I'm in love with this car!
The GT500 doesn't excite me like it use to .... I know what Cam will say but how about the rest of you?

Great car on the road course, but they only trap at like 116-117. Needs more powah

What the heck is up with the front splitter? It looks like a shelf.

I think it's an awesome car, but there was a fair portion of ZL1 guys that moved into the Z28 and really had a hard time living with the suspension and ride quality on normal street driving. The charm wore off very quickly. Not trying to be a debbie downer, just what I saw with them.

It is designed to actually be functional. Laguna Seca piece looks similar.

I say get what you want. I'm a Ford guy but Chevrolet keeps improving on the looks of these cars. The Nascar fan and the kid in me were really disappointed to find out that the IROC Z pics I saw the other week were photoshopped.

I can't lie - I liked the IROCs back in 1985. They were sharp.

It's is a nice car just feel it's little long in the tooth .... Maybe I should start doing mods again!?

If the GT500 doesn't excite you anymore, I'm not sure how this is going to revive your excitement.
You say that the GT500 is "long in the tooth". Between that and the car not exciting you anymore, its begging the question:
Is the "downgrade" in performance (a 116-117 trap is only a few MPH above my stock GT) going to temper your excitement of the new styling and interior enough that you regret the decision after you switch?
Only you can answer that, but cam's anecdotal experience from other drivers should be considered...

Yeah I think I'm off this Z28 kick .... I would be bored with the performance! I do like this particular car but I just couldn't justify 20K more for the car plus the power adds I would have to do just to achieve "like" performance of my old whip.

You would be bored with the performance. - True statement unless you used the car as intended then you would find a whole new world of performance that the GT500 couldn't touch.
