Sum up all my posts PLEASE, wait I will do it for you
1. The ZL1 beat the Boss 302
2. The ZL1's numbers are better than the 2011 Shelby
3. The Shelby has trouble getting traction
4. The Shelby has NO TEST DATA OUT JUST NUMBERS!!!!!!!!!!
5. Team Camaro challenged the Shelby they backed down.
I even went as far as to say the 2013 Shelby will probably be faster in a straight line. I know this because they already have the ZL1 times to beat hanging on every wall inside Ford. Camaro is the sales leader and Ford wants some of that glory back.
I doubt I have the income you have FFCobra, but I still managed to support all three of the American Muscle Cars. That meant taking my lunch to work, looking at the same small TV, not hanging out with friends every weekend and other sacrifices. Back in the 90s when guys my age were all about import sports cars I worked all though high school and college to pay for my 97 Camaro. Your arguments about my passion for muscle cars hurt, and could not be farther from the truth. When I was seven I had a picture of a 69 Charger and 3rd gen IROC Camaro on my wall. If someone gave me the choice of owning any car it would be a Camaro. Nuff Said |
I get your enthusiasum but some of the assumptions you make and the way you present them make you look like a troll.
Your points and facts are one sided, as most can pick apart any comparision and show how their side is better. Good example... see below.
1. The ZL1 beat the Boss 302
(it should, it costs a considerably amount more)
2. The ZL1's numbers are better than the 2011 Shelby
(it should, ZL1 has been developing for 2 years aiming directly at the shelby)
3. The Shelby has trouble getting traction
(Yes and no. The performance packs on the shelbys and new tires help quite a bit. It's not that bad)
4. The Shelby has NO TEST DATA OUT JUST NUMBERS!!!!!!!!!!
(there was a point not to long ago, that ZL1 was just numbers, doesn't mean the performance isn't coming)
5. Team Camaro challenged the Shelby they backed down. (
This was a PR response and damage control by Cheverolet. Ford doesn't have a production model 2013 shelby gt500 yet to respond with. I'm sure when ford does, they still may decline the direct competition, but rather let the consumer and magazines show the results.)
And I'm sure someone can pick apart my responses above. But to sit there and add exclamation marks and derogative comments only has people questioning the author, not the facts.
