Chevrolet Adds Custom Sport Package to Silverado

I like this package but I still would like to see a sport package 2 wheel drive with a handling package. Kind of a full size ZQ8.

I like this much better than the over done chrome packages. This was done right IMHO.

One thing I was fan of post-MCE GMT900 Silverado 2500s was the Z71 package with body colored bumpers.

GMC has the body colored bumpers in the All-Terrain package on the new Sierra. It does have more color choices than the ones offered for the this Silverado, though. The truck genuinely looks good.

I generally by GMC for the lack of the chrome.

I just wish they had an option where you could opt for Chrome or painted bumpers and grills on what ever truck. I am not a big chrome guy.

Also with a lot of the chrome plastic anymore it just get dinged up anyways. That is my only real complaint on our Terrain is the chrome over the grill. I plan to replace it next year as it is looking crappy while the rest of the nose is pretty clean.

A Terrain with body color grill would look really hot  especially on a black one.

A metallic All Black Fully Loaded GMC Terrain with the Twin Turbo V6 could be a New Typhoon.

It would be better than the Denali. I am not a big fan of the Denali grill even if many others are. It is just my own thing.

As for TTV6 you would have to cut some weight and lower it if you can. It is too top heavy for any real performance and needs to drop down below 4000  pounds to make the best of it. Maybe the next gen.

I love my Terrain but I am realistic. As it is now it is not a good performance platform and it is not an off road vehicle as some want to think it is. It is basically a SUV like Minivan that my wife likes and I am not ashamed to be seen in it.

Now in the next gen if they could lower it properly to where it still handles and once they remove some weight it might make for an appealing package. The other considerations is How Much. The Denali now is over $41K loaded. How high can you go and people will still buy?

The Z71 emblem on the door of the first Silverado shown above is new. Usually the SILVERADO badge is in that place.

The truck in the original post is not an LTZ Z71, it's an LT Z71.  The '15 LTZ Z71 has a silver grille.

Got to give Ford one thing, they offer a lot of truck-related packages that allows for a lot of individualization.
The more Chevy & GMC offer, the better for the consumer.

The 2nd truck is not a LTZ, it's the 2014 LT w/ Z71 option. As Bill pointed out, 2015 Z71's have a silver painted grille ('14s have black colored grille).

Not a 2014 LT Z71, but a 2015 LT Z71, it has the body color door handles and mirror caps.  The 2015 LT Z71 has body color handles and caps, but retains the special black Z71 grille.  The 2015 LTZ Z71 has the silver grille, and I am not sure, but I think it has different wheels too.

Hey Drewbert   

For what it is worth we have a 2015 LT Z71 and it looks just like the second one posted with the chrome grill with the black inserts. It also has the same wheels. We lack the lower chrome on the front bumper. 

The bigger difference is the leather on the inside and some detail items.   

Unless  you know what to look for you can pass a LT off at a LTZ pretty easy on the outside.

My mistake, I thought all trim levels with the Z71 package received the silver grill insert for 2015. D'oH!! 

Projector beam headlights. LOL that should be std equipment in every stinking Silverado for the prices being charged for these things not a one off package only!

Love the look of the crew cab in Summit White in the press release. Too bad I can't actually get one that looks like the pic in the press release. Summit White is only offered in Double Cab and White Diamond is the alternative in Crew

I really do like this, this makes me feel like I get a say in what gets placed on my vehicle, and how it looks. Makes me feel like I am building my own dream car.
