idahoBLKss Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 (edited) If youre going to buy a sportscar for the power, buy a Camaro, no contest. Camaro is faster on the 1320, and the track over a Mustang or Challenger. Pick up a few of the magazines that compare Camaro, Mustang, and Challenger, its quite funny that they call it a comparison. dont get me wrong im a chevy guy all the way but from the 2 ss camaros ive seen at the track nether of them broke into the 13 second mark they were around 14.2 range wasnt impressed at all, imo srt8 's own them stock to stock !

wody Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 i dont like the mustang but i am glad they are bringing the 5.0 back nostalgic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Well, we need to wait for the new 5.0L to come out for a comparison. I think the 5.0l GT will do pretty good against the SS and the Challenger SRT-8, remember it is lighter than both cars and it comes with 412hp. I don't really like the Camaro SS style, I'd rather have a 2011 Ford Mustang GT 5.0L. Need to hurry up and pay off my V-Max to get a new Mustang GT 5.0L. Um...no. http://blogs.insideline.com/straightline/2...d_fe_9998_1.JPG 2011 Mustang GT is heavier than the Camaro SS so no. Still less horsepower, and now it is heavier. So I don't know where you are getting your facts from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow apparently the track you go to Camaro owners can't drive. 2010 Camaros have broken into the 12s with ease. Bone stock. Not Mustang GTs, not Challengers, Camaros. http://www.gminsidenews.com/forums/f39/bon...1-4-mile-82064/ So basically what you are saying idahoBLKss is that if I bought a 2009 Corvette ZR1 and could not drive a manual so I trapping a 15 second et, and then I bought an automatic base model C6 Corvette and trapped a 13 second et that a base model Corvette is faster than a ZR1? If you think that you are sad. No. Just because the TWO fools that cannot drive a Camaro run poor times does not make SRT8s which have been proven over and over again by the same professional driver driving both cars, that the Camaro SS is faster. Have you not read or seen any testing between the cars? Any professional driver that drives a Camaro SS is 13 seconds flat, or 12s. So if you base your opinion on two morons that can't drive that a slow Challenger is faster, well you have one crappy opinion. http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/coupes...g_gt/index.html http://www.insideline.com/ford/shelby-gt50...elby-gt500.html etc... plenty of magazines have the tests so I will not bore you with facts. If you guys like spending more money to have a slow sports car than go for it, buy a Mustang or Challenger. But to buy either other vehicles based on performance and price, that is a sad, misinformed opinion. I would rather own a Camaro save $20,000 and spank Shelby GT500KRs, let alone a puny 5.0L Mustang. Even keep it stock save $8,000 and spank SRT-8s. 2010 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Base MSRP $34,225 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8 Base MSRP $42,245 2009 Shelby Mustang GT500KR Base MSRP $47,175 Hey but whats money right? Piss it all away for a slow car. Edited January 1, 2010 by Punisher (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireman31 Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 I ran a new Camaro SS when I was at the track a few weeks ago....he was running DRs, CAI, and a tune. That car went 12.70 @ 109.8, pulled on me steadily all the way through the traps..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not worked up. I try my best to educate misinformed individuals, or in your case attempt to educate misinformed individuals. Yea you're right, 12 seconds off the lot isn't all its cracked up to be. Anybody that reads this don't listen to professionals or myself our opinions based on facts don't matter. Listen to IdahoBLKss's opinion because hes seen two guys drive a Camaro and they are shit don't buy one or in fact don't buy any Chevrolet product! They're all just slow.

JSTAL Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 (edited) well i was going to say something smart ass about what it thought of the car but every one covered it. The 5.0 return is a marketiing ploy to real in old enthusiats who have lost their love for the cumstain. Its a pos and always will be.
