    WOW! SLP has managed to do it again...(wait, it's not how you think).

    They've managed to find a way to charge WAY TOO MUCH for a tricked out F-Body.

    Let me get this straight:

    $53,000 for 465 hp

    $73,000 for 585 hp

    and

    $112,000 for 750 hp (actually, this is the best deal of the three, but still...does the saying, "I could've had a ZR1" come to mind??)

    The first two cars are crazy. Almost $15K for 40 more hp and a few bolt on accessories?? And how about nearly $35K more for a supercharged car? Whaaaaat????

    I'm looking forward to the day when GM makes the Z28 (2012) with the LSA and prices them for $25K less.

    I just don't understand how these guys justify their prices anymore. What a joke...

    I hate to admit this, but for $75K, one can build a blown Mustang GT 5.0 that will smoke the ZL585, and leave you with enough cash to buy a second GT.

    They should stick to selling stickers and keychains on ebay, displayed on women's private parts. At least then, you're supposed to laugh.

          Just like doing your own FI on a Z06 vs. the ZR1.

              I had to revive this old thread.

              Just saw the Dale Earnhardt Intimidator.

              http://www.earnhardtautomotive.com/I...r_camaro_5.JPG

              704 hp
              695 lbs-ft of Torque
              11 psi of Boost
              $79,995

              Hmmm, I can spend $73K for SLP's 585 hp "bolt on" car, or a few grand more for this beauty.

              Yeah, SLP is silly.
