To run the times in a 2010+ Camaro that I have run in my Mustang requires a power adder which is another $5K plus in mods. I have about $3.5K in my current mods and that includes suspension, clutch, drive shaft, etc... My investment in power mods is ~$1,900. You tell me which one is the better investment?

I can't agree with this if by power adder you mean forced induction. If chevy had put some other motor in the Camaro SS than an LS3 I might be with you, but if there is ANYTHING at all that the LS series does, is make gobs of power completely N/A.
Maybe you have a point with the price out the door, I don't know, I haven't personally run the numbers, but to say an LS3 needs a power adder is crazy.
Either way cars are bad investment as it is, and if you want to get into price points then buying used is the way to go. I'm sure I could find an 11 second foxbody for under $20K.

Correct that down and that is an 11.29@121 with a terrible 1.68 60' time. We can piss and moan about it all day long but those are cold hard facts. I have yet to see a N/A 2010+ Camaro SS break out of the 12's at our track. The same car I mentioned, pre-blower, was running 12.4's. The owner is a super nice guy.

I don't know man, that is anecdotal evidence, just because you haven't seen it at you track doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
