I thought I'd share !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! from a camaro5 thread by Scott Settlemire (a.k.a. fbodfather) regarding the difference between the Z28 and Z/28. He also mentions how the new Z/28 was codenamed "Steve" in his original post, which deals with the immediate backlash against the refreshed 2014 Camaro's design.

The 2014 is dedicated to the “Z/28” purist. This is a track car that makes no excuses. That this car is a full three seconds faster on a track than the mighty ZL1 speaks volumes to its intent. Make no mistake – this isn’t a slap at the mightly ZL1. Far from it. If you want a car that blows other cars off a road course on Saturday and Sunday – and yet will get you to the office in comfort on Monday morning – the ZL1 is the car for you. If you want blistering track performance at a reasonable cost – the 1LE is prescribed. And – if you want to shame exotics on a road course – with an automobile that’s not meant for daily driving, then the Z/28 makes no apologies and may grab you by the collar – shake you silly — and shout “LET’S GO MAKE HISTORY!”

This explains it better than I could ever hope to. Well said. Thank you for sharing.

Never knew there was a difference between "Z28" and "Z/28." I am now informed. Thanks for sharing!
