The main thing is we have CHOICES. I chose Camaro. Case closed.
IDGAF how fast a Crustang or for that matter, any other car is. Power is not the total reasoning of why I buy a car. They're lighter, powerful, and are a good car for Mustang lovers. I admire them as a friendly foe. Like the sports teams...RedSox/Yankees, Cubs/Cardinals, Redskins/Cowboys...even Pepsi/Coke. on the track they go toe to toe. Rivalries are good. We all end up with a better product.

I think we are mostly in agreement.

I'm going to put it like this. GM have old school players or followers that still believe bigger is better. From a 5.7-6.0-6.2 whats next 6.4?? What Dodge beat us to that. Dam.. GM needs to look inside the box and build forged internals, that probable cost the same. Ford has many partners and help each other out, Microsoft, Saleen, Shelby many more top notch players. GM only has SLP?? They need to hire some new cats that have new ideas that can perform better than a GT-R. AWD it the way to go. hands down..

the LS1 dominated fords in the 90's and it was easy to rag on ford. Many people jumped on the LS bandwagon for this but now that ford has made something equal to or above the LS and now I see threads like this.

It wouldve been interesting if Dodge had put the exact crate 6.4 in the new cars and not modified it like they did. I think those out between 525-550 hp

This is not true. If anything 1LEs run slower 1/4 times than straight SS LS3s. But yes the 1LEs rigid chassis and better suspension, brakes, and tires will be faster on a road course with equal drivers than any 5.0 GT. Bosses are much closer and here it would be a drivers race.

If you want a ford, buy one. Don't bother justifying to me why you did. My opinion won't change regardless. You're either a tool or not, regardless whether you buy a Mustang, Camaro or Challenger/Charger.

Currently there are less than 50 new ZR1'S for sale in the USA. There are over 400 new GTR's on the U.S. market. I stand by my statement.
