In real world competition with similar tires and lighter wheels the 1LE would be knocking at its door on the track, autox, etc. Can the R get better tires, yeah sure, but at a competition level everyone will be running similar tires basically and not OEM. 44k on a street tire with that performance is ridiculous. It shits all over their own ATS-V too... |

He'd be better off just buying a 5th gen 1LE and learning how to drive it..... The driver mod is worth waaaay more than 10K.

If that v6 responded well to simple mods, it could seriously be on my list.

[QUOTE=shaffe;9302203]I don't understand why people keep bringing up the ZL1 vs the GT350R. The ZL1 better smoke it and I don't see why its such an accomplishment if it does It has 120+ more HP, plus all the go fast goodies the 1LE has. I think or at least in my mind once they said it was gonna have the LT4, that it was going to be faster than the 350R.
I feel that it makes perfect sense because all the Stang boys are saying that you can't compare the 1LE to the GT350 because the 350 is a separate "special model". Well that's exactly what the ZL1 is and they will be in the same price bracket so I believe it's the perfect comparison. At least until the GT500 and Z/28 come out. |

Still don't think it is anything to write home about when the ZL1 beats the 350R times, it should be expected and IMO should do it with ease. |

If the ZL1 and whatever is coming up (presumably the Z/28) couldn't outrun the GT350R..that'd be a big egg on GM's face considering they've had nearly 2 years since they were announced and over a year since the first cars made it into consumer hands.
This is just how it goes, nothing lasts forever, and no car is the tip-top for long. |
