IDK but this looks pretty bad ass to me. Of course we need to see if the "adjustments" to the transmission were all good.

I really love the layout of the interior too. No iPad looking center screen and I like where they placed the center vents.

I like the ZR2, and cross shopped it with the Ranger.

Problem was that I couldn't find a ZR2 forum that would help me find ways to spend all my money.

I find this forum, and Ranger it was.
If you need people to help you spend your money you’re not doing it right…?

More power to em.
After GM screwed me out of a nice 6 figure sum in 2008 without so much as a "we're sorry but going bankrupt is more important to us than our investors", I spit on GM.
Only wish I had the xtra money to buy a brand new Chebbie POS so I could park it in front of their headquarters, and publicly crush it !!!
now i am fully on board with that! i am anti gm.

The new Chevy has awfully small windshields. Go ride in one. I never noticed until I did. No sense of front end close distance. Almost like looking out of a porthole.. maybe it’s just me. I see them on the road too and you really notice the windshield size..

It has one engine option but comes pre-tuned depending on what trim level is purchased.

Hi Andy,

I looked head on in the Chevy ads and the Tumblehome does not seem to be that significant, but is the A pillar quite thick? Lower roof line? Not seeing why the windshield seem so portholeish. Maybe perspective from the outside.

Best,
Phil

You can also add the higher output tune as a stand alone option.

It looks a lot like the Ranger from the side to me. Don't like the look of the interior.

Hopefully they addressed the windshield and this one is all new and redesigned Andy. They're not even out yet as production just started the end of January.

It's standard on the ZR2 but it's nice all the other trims you can add it to them. 310 hp and 430 tq is pretty impressive stock. :shock:

a lot of modern cars seem to have this look. I believe it is to meet crash standards. Look at the new camaro or old now because its in its final year. Tiny slivers for windows.
