A frequent mistake by folks new to cars is to make assumptions using a single data point. Below are some more recent tests. Low to mid 12's and high teens mean the GT500 is in a whole different zip code....
At the test track, the 2010 Ford Shelby GT500 charged down the quarter-mile in just 12.4 seconds, an effort that simply slays its chief American muscle car rivals, the new Chevrolet Camaro SS (13.0 seconds) and the Dodge Challenger SRT8 (13.2 seconds). And we got that time running against a 14-mph headwind. The Shelby also sprinted to 60 mph in just 4.3 seconds, meaning that, if need be, you could ruin the day of the guy in the BMW M6.
