This is why 0-60 times can be misleading. It's much better to compare 1/4 mile times. |

Edmunds as a whole is OK. Just there journalists and drivers and editors, flat out suck harry ass and balls. They are not worth shit on a boot.

All I can say is Edmunds blows!!!!! as much as I wish is was true, but you wouldn't spend that much on a mustang if you could buy a better mustang for cheaper. Does not make sense.... but we'll just leave that problem with ford as soon as our beloved Camaro (King Of Muscle) gets back on the streets.
BTW. I bet the Z/28 will be a heck of alot cheaper than the p.o.s. GT500 KR as well, and has better performance.

A GT500 puts down ~450 rwhp. The LS3 Camaro will probably put down ~380 rwhp with a comparable curb weight. Do the math. People who actually race their cars laugh at talk about 0-60 times. This is why. |

Did you have a brain fart? Why do they laugh? This argument you guys are having is kinda silly, why are you attempting to compare a special build rustang with the new Camaro? Is it fear? Is that what I smell???
