Nothing more than dealer badging. It's like seeing Cavalier Z22's

F41 was just a code for suspension...a soft one at that.

i know f41 was a suspension package, but there was still a badge for it. so maybe zf is some sort of package, like luxury or something, i donno.

My bad, sorry Adam

Side note: Maybe after 15-20 years, maybe the F41 is soft. But from what I have read, it is considered a "Firm Ride/Handling package". The FE1 was the real soft suspension package.

US $338.33 Reserve not met

And that's why it's rare... No one wants it now, no one wanted it then.

The auction had it pretty much right, dealer applied sticker package type deal.

Yes guys there is a ZF camaro out there. I think that all that they are is a Camaro with a wood grain dash in them, thats all. They are built off of a basic sport coupe. I seen one here in Maryland. They say ZF on the dash.
