Camaro V6 auto outruns Mustang V6 auto

Wow, the manual Mustang V6 manages 0-60 times in the low 5s, the auto Mustang V6 is a whole second slower (manual=5.2, auto=6.2) ! The Camaro V6 auto and Camaro V6 manual times are more or less the same, with maybe a few tenths in favor of the manual. The Camaro tested was also a Hertz rental V6 with 11k miles.

What?

...Dude..what grade are you in?

2011 Mustang V6 Auto 0-60: 6.2 seconds
2011 Camaro V6 Auto 0-60: 6.1 Seconds

The 6 is the seconds, decimal point, and the next number is in the tenths position. The Camaro ran to 60 one tenth of a second faster than the V6 Mustang.

Also that article was about the automatics..

Actually a little suprising.

The V6 auto Camaro out ran the V6 auto Mustang by .1 (tenth) 0-60mph, and they both ran 14.5 in the 1/4 mile. The Camaro even had a slighty faster trap speed.

I thought the V6 Mustang was supposed to be a lot faster than the V6 Camaro?

It is...just with the manual. It destroys it with the real transmission (haha just ****in with you, but the manual is significantly faster as said in the op).

I was stating how big of a difference in performance there is with V6 Mustang Auto vs V6 Mustang Manual, and that there is a considerably less difference between the V6 Camaro Auto vs V6 Camaro Manual in 0-60 and 1/4 mile times.

I agree I even make my mistakes but honestly it was hard to understand what you were talking about. Noone is perfect.
