Anybody ever heard of this car???

I saw this car at work the other day, and im wondering if ANYBODY has any clue about it- it was a Chevy Camaro with a seemingly factory-looking badge on it saying "ZF" in the traditional Z28 lettering (this car was a third gen). Now, I have seen one other like it, but it was a different color. This car also had a very erratic looking stock (I think) spoiler on it, and wood-highlighted interior bits...any ideas about this car? Any specs?

I think it was a short lived appearance package on the V6 models, but I am not sure.

This topic has come up at least twice before. The ZF was NOT a factory offering, but due to the fact many of us have seen them (I can think of 2 off the top of my head), it was probably a dealer-installed package for SPORT COUPES ONLY.

Does anyone have any other details? I can't recall many details regarding the other posts on the ZF.

Strange things happen. A dealership in Virginia Beach had some 6 banger 4th gens they put Z82 stripes on! Thats right, Z82, meant to confuse unwary shoppers I'm sure.
