The Gt500 just ran 9.s@142 with the stock blower, it’d do ok against a Z. Stock for stock even, they’re off by what, 3mph?

I’m definitely not a Camaro guy, but my neighbor has a ZL1 and it’s pretty nice. Was at his house today after coming home from the car show in Scotia, the car did look good as I kept looking in my rearview mirror. Pretty nice look and the black wheels give it a nice appearance as well…they look better than the optional wheels IMO.

I do find it funny how the GT500 continuously gets compared to the 2 seat, fiberglass/CF car(Z06), and not to what it was set out to beat lol. Seriously, why does it always end up going to the Vette arguement, they are 2 different cars, completely.

In 2014 Dodge is putting out a 6.2 Fi motor making 575HP for the Barracuda and other models. Nothing to brag about, it’ll still be slowest of the 3 FI cars but, theyre at least making a small attempt.

Mustang gets compared to vette cause all the stangs get all the Ford hi-POW shit as does the vette . If Gm would put out a 1k h.p vette so the camaro could shine for once that argument would be over .but Gm is a joke and won’t lol
