To be accurate, yes, it's a little pricey at $58K.
And even more "pricey" at the as-tested price of nearly $65K (the car had another $6K in options added to it...listen closely at the end). It's a shame they are doing what they've always done....make a vehicle to attract 25 - 50 year old males, thatcan afford. The guys that can afford to spend over $60K on a muscle car will NOT buy a Camaro.
SLP wants to play in the same sandbox as Lingenfelter and Hennessey, but then release vehicles like the Ford Ranger Thunderbolt
For SLP, it's going to blow if/when GM releases the Z28, making the same power with a version of the LSA and sets the price at $46K
Sorry guys, I like a supercharged Camaro SS, but not because SLP made it.Al 96 Ram Air T/A
