Camaros v6 VS Mustang Gt

[Kelton00912]

just wounding if the 2 wer linded up on a drag trac ...what would be the out come? since there both rated about the same?? im thinking the gt would beat it but not by much at all..?

[kevin2323]

heavy v6 vs lighter v8 =failure

compare v8 vs v8

The mustang will take it off the line and in the top end too only because it has a v8 and is lighter.

[Kelton00912]

well thats sucks... that changes my mind about getting the v6 .. lol but im not gonna get it at all if i cant have the v8... i want that feel for power!

Yeah,
The Mustang GT's are pretty fast. They are very capable of mid to high 13s. From what I've been reading the V6 Camaro will most likely be a mid to high 14 sec car.

That's not to say a V6 Camaro can't suprise a GT and beat it. But drivers being equal, the Mustang GT will have a decent advantage over the V6 Camaro.

yea my friends got a 2006 mustang gt and we got it up to high 30s its pretty fast.... you really cant underestimate the gt:s there pretty quick... but as you know they wont be quick enough for the v8

[MAROobsession]

i think the v6 will be more 14.5 mabey less with good driving
but as posted in another thread with the 3.6 DI intake and exhaust added 31whp /w out a tune. now thats power that will probably take a GT.

I've been reading that high to mid 13's for the V6 camaro are more accurate... and if you saw the milford experience thread alot of people were shocked by the V6 camaro... http://camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5624

The V6 Camaro will not run mid 13s (there's no way). With 300hp and 3800 lbs it will run up in the 14s in the 1/4 mile.



The V8 Camaro (in testing - from what I've read) run low 13s.

the V8 weighs 200lbs more and according to MT the V6 camaro that they hve pics of weighed in between 3700 and 3750lbs 13's are possible.

Depends on which Mustang GT.

If it's a 95-96-97, KILL HIM!

Especially if it's some cocky ass little ricer with Flowmasters and dumps on his "mighty" 215 hp 4.6 automatic.

This version of a ricer is easy to spot. He'll have both Cobra badges and Nissan GT-R badges on his fender. He'll try to tell you that his car is a Cobra but lacks the Cobra domed hood.

He'll roar through an amazingly mediocre 9.9 second eighth mile and then tell you, "There must be something wrong with my turbos....I ran 4 seconds last week. Maybe I need some more noss."

YOU MUST KILL HIM FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD AND HOLY

The GTO with 400hp and a weight of 3700 lbs runs low to mid 13s.

It is possible a V6 Camaro could run high 13s (in excellent conditions) but
14s are more likely.
My quess is most Testing will show mid 14s or so for the V6 Camaro.

i've been told that the GTO had issues of some sort and got housed by the GT... if that is true and the camaro gets the same treatment i'll be very disappointed...

I've never heard that.
The GTO is faster than the GT and everyone knows that. In every test I've ever seen the GTO has run faster than the GT. Most magazines have the GTO running 13.3s @ 107 mph or so, which is several tenths faster than the GT.
