I remember being the launch of this one in 81 back home.
I always dreamed of owning one and I was close then something came up and the money went for more essentials.
I was living in Texas in 1980 and saw my first 1980 Z/28 in an amusement park parking lot near Fort Worth and noticed the changes from the ‘79 models and was staring at it in awe - it was white with blue stripes and interior and had those wheels that the ‘86~’88 Monte Carlo SS’s used.

I was only ten years old but I noticed that the hood scoop had the lettering “Air-Induction” on it and it sounded a lot like the Chevelle SS’s “Cowl-Induction” to me so I knew it was cool !

As I was about to walk away this SMOK’n HOT lady that looked like Olivia Newton-John walked over to it and turned to me and said “Honey, if you were about ten years older I’d take you for a ride” - I’ve been look’n for that woman ever since !

You're actually right it was 1980 because in 1981 I was somewhere else. I remember now because in 81 we had a war in Beirut that I was watching from the hills

I figured that there may have been a model year delay in GM exports on some vehicles - regardless, glad ya’ got outta there!
