Both Ford and GM have updated them since then and left the Nissan behind because it failed to do the same.

This is the reason why I didn't even consider a Z for my next car purchase. If they had released one or confirmed any details that revealed it could be competitive with those cars soon I may have considered getting another one. I had decided on getting a 2016 5.0 earlier this year and then I started looking at used C7's. As soon as I test drove one, my mind was pretty much made up. Just placed an order for a 2016 C7 like 2 weeks ago and should be getting it delivered around late August.

And now the Gen 6 Camaro has SRM and the LT1. Weight is down as well. If it handles well, could be a valid replacement although, it is still 3700 lbs.

Ima stikin wit da Z. I like it ... looks good and goes good. I smile every time I get in.
