I actually drive a 2007 BMW X5, V8 with 320 hp. Its an extremely heavy SUV, but can feel the power even pushing around 5000lbs. BMW calls it a tiptronic shift automatic. (6 speed tranny).
With over 1K less weight and a 400hp V8, the camaro will definately be the fastest car that I have driven. (Owner of a 78 and 83 camaro)
Here in Hawaii, they closed the race track, so I wont be doing any racing, but just enjoy the pure burst of speed from a dead stop! I think the camaro will take care of that itch for me.
