Exactly!
In all honesty, I would rather buy a USED Zo6 than PAY 65K for a ZL1
Anyone who thinks the ZL1 will out perform the Zo6 is out of their mind

Will we be disappointed spending all that money on the ZL1 only to have the GT500 rain on it's parade?
I have confirmation that the 2024 Camaro will be way way way faster than the 2023 Mustang.
Just sayin'

Nope, I read the same article that 2024 Camaro will be overpriced and the 2023 mustang will be 2hp slower. Sorry man, bad info you got there

Someone is always faster! Its like the fight game, you may think your a badass but you WILL run into someone that is badder or just having a better day. With the ZL1 coming out first, I would lay money on Ford making the 500 a lil bit faster. Remember that Ford got caught with its pants down with the SS hitting the market and lost alot of $ and previous Mustang owners (Me as one) They quickly revamped the 5.0 back in the car. Kind of like computers and t.v.s by the time you buy it and get it home, something better is on the market.

I'm talking strictly factory, I don't give a shit about aftermarket.

Thats why the GT500 was at the Nurburgring months ago, but never released the numbers.
In the next few months Ford will release a statement, and in that statement they will announce that the 2013 GT500 has run a faster lap time than the ZL1.
Probably not by very much, but I have money saying Ford is hiding in the bushes, just waiting to see what the Official ZL1 numbers are going to be, before finishing the 2013 GT500.

I don't think it's necessary to insult the guy
He has some serious concerns, and this IS a place of DISCUSSION.

You telling me you are going to go through life always worried about if someone has MORE than you have? And do you think people will ENVY you because you got 40 more horsepower?

It's a tough way to live always judging what you have and what others might have. It'll drive you crazy son!

So how does the thought of over paying for a car that may not even keep up with it's competition make you feel?

Well my guess is that you drive a 2013 GT500 in a race against a 2012 ZL1 you will lose. You're probably 40 lbs heavier than the average ZL1 driver, so there goes your perceived advantage.... Just sayin... YUK YUK
