So after the SS V8, the line upwards branches out wherein Z28 is more racing/track oriented WHILE the ZL1 would be a more refined and upscale Camaro?
So, the flagship of the Camaro would be the ZL1, not the Z28?

The 2014 Camaro Z/28 features what engineers are referring to as the "flowtie" - a halo of the traditional bowtie, with the center removed, helping to increase air flow and cool the engine.

This makes literally zero difference for engine cooling. If a badge makes the car overheat, it's a ****ty car to begin with. We have modern cars that actually CLOSE flaps on their grilles for improved aerodynamics.
Speaking as an engineer, that video is a bit insulting.

Nice marketing gimmick.
