Price will be in the $65-70K range. This is very stiff competition for M4. Me, I like my 4 doors. If I were a coupe kind of guy, I would think the z/28 would get a serious look.

P.S. - This car would finish over 1/2 mile ahead of M5 on Nordschleife.
The Z/28 is fast as hell. That being said the EPA Fuel economy is going to be 14/17 which will be much lower then the M4. It does make its power without turbos but its a 3 Liter vs a 7 Liter. I think this car is kickass. I am just worried that these will be marked up to 80k by dealers. Also you cant get that badass pearl white color.
