I hope this works out for you. A damn Camaro should be a V8 push rod manual. This seems to be a very good model for the $ and the engine is proven.

If anything, the Shelbys may slightly exceed some of their reported hp and torque numbers. They certainly meet them. But it takes a more skilled driver to get what the Shelby has to offer than it...

Audi is a car on the rise, but for the extra performance you get you pay a fortune. I wouldn't feel confident about racing one in a stock Camaro. But as always, the driver makes a lot of...

You could modify a n/a SS to outrun the ZL-1 I'm sure. But remember, when you do heavy modifications like that you usually decrease the lifespan of the car and you also decrease its value from stock...

I would not assume these cars will be better in 2018 than they are now. Ford and Chevy are making the best models of these cars they ever have and probably ever will. From everything I've read, the...

I was thinking around 70K as well. And I'm also thinking what in hell is GM thinking making a Camaro that expensive? So you have two Camaros at or well over 60K. Why? Why would you put this thing...

This is the most obvious and understated fact of a drag or any other race. If there is a significant difference in the abilities of the drivers, the "slower" car can win.

As far as market cannibalism goes, how does the 2014 Z28 and the new Stingray fare? From what I understand, and I could be totally wrong, but the Stingray is going to be somewhere in the low to mid...

None, because as is often the case with GM, once they really get something right they quit making it. The 2002 SS was light years ahead of the 2002 GT. So let's stop making it like we did the 1996...

I don't doubt the car is very fast for a n/a 6 cylinder, but no way is it as fast as the V8 Mustangs and Camaros. The G37 is also not cheap.

The SS should have been able to turn much better than a 13+ 1/4 mile. That is what a V6 would do. The ZL-1 would lose also, but I doubt it would get slaughtered like that.

Thanks for that info. All I really knew about Mustangs from 1998-2010 is I didn't want one because I felt it was underpowered. How much hp did the 2002 put out? 300 hp? If even?
