Actually.. I'm not a fan of the 2010 Saleen, SM460, or the C-500 from Cervini.

I do like the 2005-09 Saleen Exteme S302E = 620 hp!!!



I like the standard gt and gt500.

And I love the Super Snake.... I'll take mine in red....

I had to go to the bathroom after seeing that red super snake.....NICE. One other factor to consider in the SS vs race craft mustang is the power curve due to it being FI it may have less power down low(not saying it does, just that it's possible). I'm sure the stang would win but it may be close.

It may beat the camaro SS in a straight line, But on a track I think it will be a drivers race. with an advantage to the Camaro just my opinion.

Actually a twin screw gives you more Tq down low as it is instant boost off the line when you go WOT. Though they do tend to fall off at the higher RPM. Centri's build power after certain RPM's has been reached but keeps building all the way thru the redline.

So the Mustang would have the down low advantage, but this same advantage could make traction a problem.

That is the definition of Hideous. I am not sure what he was trying to do there..Gah may I dare say RICER looks ???

DID I JUST SAY THAT ?????

The rear end needs to hit the drawing board again. That double wing thing is just not cutting it.

So true. I was thinking the same thing.

As much as I hate the thought of giving any money to the folks in LasVegas (CS) I have considered the Super Snake upgrade. At 32k for the 725hp version it is not cheap by any means.

Not sure about the comparison of the Camaro to the tuner car mentioned here. I think the Camaro performs well and is a very strong contender in its price range for sure. Just boils down to your preference. I have said before if everyone bought the most bang for the buck car out there, everyone would be driving a C6 Z06. I almost bought a new 08' instead of my 2nd GT500. Could not bring myself to write a check for $73k. Awesome car though. Not to mention the standard C6 with the LS3 is definitely a strong running car. Once I saw the Z06 I could not settle for a "regular" vette if there is such a thing. The new Grand Sport may be the option to get.
