I can't stop watching this over and over. The only good mustang is the one in the rear view mirror.

KR 0-60: 4.9
2010 Camaro: 4.4-4.5 (estimated).

KR = $82,000
Camaro = ~$30,000
I love it.

NICE!

Eisenhower · 09-06-2008, 03:44 PM

wow... Edmunds went off on that KR

shank0668 · 09-06-2008, 03:45 PM

lol g8 gxp does 0-60- in 4.7

Emher · 09-06-2008, 04:17 PM

Just confirming that Vette rocks the socks of the competition. Except I'd never consider a Mustang the competition.

carsismeZ06 · 09-06-2008, 04:31 PM

The concept looked 10x better. That car needs 20" wheels at least.

o2camaross · 09-06-2008, 04:38 PM

wow, the camaro is gonna have a faster 0-60 then the KR, holy crap. Ford needs to step up

Screw991le · 09-06-2008, 04:47 PM

Why Ford people think the Mustang was ever in the same league as the Vette, is crazy. The Mustang vs. Camaro is more like it. The Stang and Camaro are muscle/pony cars. The Vette is a sports car. The Mustang has no direct competition since 02' but it will again.

The Mustang may beat GM in sales, but never on the track. Since 67' the Camaro has been faster every single year of production.

I consider even another Camaro as competition. Won't hate on him when he loses tho, no matter what he drives. Now if he's a prick, that's a whole nother game

CaptianSam · 09-06-2008, 05:25 PM

First off guy, get your facts strait. Shelby GT 500KR specs are below, and 0-60: 4.9. Try taking another .8-1.1 off that. Not a true lover of mustangs in general but I will always defend a SHELBY. I have driven the 2007 GT500, Shelby GT, Shelby CS8 and the 1967 Shelby Cobra AC 427.

2008-2009 Shelby GT 500 KR

• Front engine, RWD, 4 passenger, 2 door coupe
• Supercharged DOHC 32 valve V8 engine

You are a damn crack head. You who made that statement.

gladiatoro · 09-06-2008, 06:32 PM

yes 4.1 0 to 60 for the KR is correct not 4.9 that @#$%^&* Edmunds is a joke lol... the SS won't even come close sorry at 4.5 and oh it weighs LESS THAN THE SS MARO at 3800 lb go figure and finally no it should not be compared to the vette because the SHELBY KR is a pony car not a two seat sports car ...

Yup, and thats where the Z28 will step in

kevin2323 · 09-06-2008, 06:57 PM

Once again this proves edmunds blows. gt500s do 0-60 in 4.6 stock how is a gtkr gonna do 4.9. I don't like ford but I hate edmunds and this proves they are the worst tester magazine in the world.
