Like the coupe, the Camaro ZL1 convertible powered by the 580-hp/432-kW LSA engine, as well as the same advanced powertrain and chassis technologies. And because the architecture for the fifth-generation Camaro was designed to accommodate a convertible model, it gives the ZL1 convertible coupe-like driving dynamics. Four strategic reinforcements enhance the already-stiff body structure to quell the cowl and steering wheel shake common in convertibles. They include:

• A tower-to-tower brace under the hood
  

• A transmission support reinforcement brace
  

• Underbody tunnel brace
  

• Front “X” brace and stiffer cradle as well as rear underbody “V” braces.
  

Additional structural reinforcements in the ZL1 convertible are designed to improve noise and vibration characteristics, while also reducing unwanted ride and body motions. They include a hydroformed tube in the A-pillars, an inner reinforcement bracket in the windshield header, a reinforced front hinge pillar and reinforcements inside the rockers.

The bottom line is a convertible designed to preserve nearly all the acceleration, road-holding and performance capabilities of the Camaro ZL1 coupe.

Only problem is you can NOT drive around with the top up.
It looks so bad top up...

I like the looks of the 'vert Camaro better than the coupe...

I wouldn't pay 60,000+for any new car or truck. Now a vintage muscle car would be different.

We're still waiting for an automatic Shelby GT500 droptop that'll exceed 155mph too, but you don't see anyone get all snotty about that, do you?
