That would be the ZL1 you are talking about, and it will still be overweight with a sub-par interior and so-so driving dynamics. They are decently comfortable though!

Chevy is saying the motor and SC will be the same as the setup on the CTS-V with similar numbers (this will be the ZL1). Chevy is also saying that they will later release a track pack car with an LS motor. The track pack car might be called the Z28.

this car will be in the BOSS 302 price bracket, if the numbers hold true and reflect performance then the Boss just became a huge subordinate

The problem is the Boss is a NA V8 where the ZL1 is a supercharged V8.
The ZL1 will be paired against the GT500 or whatever Ford does next, GM is already scrambling to find something to compete against the Boss. Hence the reason they said the Z28 might live as a NA V8 soon.
