ok, soo dyno numbers, but im sorry, ur 550hp GT which is no longer made is not putting down numbers that are that impressive for that cost at all…nothing that comes close to the times that the new Z06 is doing if i cared aobut HP numbers then id get a supra

and the lightin and sliverado ss can be compared but shoulndt, lighting is a single cab short bed RWD truck, the first SS sliverados were ext cab awd trucks with 6 ft bed. much heavier

Oh and those 3 fords in that list all need S/Cs to make decent HP numbers haha
