I wouldn't doubt that already have something ready to drop in a special model vette or camaro. 525hp with 475lbft would be nasty in a light weight z/28.

That's true but when gm's so focused on handling and track cars its all the owners had to hold on to. Weight is what killed the 5th and no suspension was gonna over come that on the strip so they decided to conquer it on the track. Now had a 5th gen ever come with an ls3 and an auto things would have been slightly different. Now with the lt1 and 8sp auto it should have no problem running hard on both tracks. And if it "god for bid" comes in weighing less than a mustang those guys will having nothing to cry about but looks.(subjective) I'm sure much like the camao guys did(1le/zl1) they ford faithfully are gonna swing real hard on the gt350 even though all they care about is drag racing.

That's good old Brent302. He talks smack about the cars he doesn't own. He talked a lot of crap about the Chevy cars. Got a Stingray.. Then he defended the Stingray left and right and talked about how it's better than the Mustang. Crashed his Vette (Sold after being fixed). Now he has a Mustang again and is back to trash talking the Chevy motors.. LOL

This thread reminds me of the love and hate between the C6 and C7, in the end it turned out the C7 was clearly the better car and nearly everybody loves it. I think the new Camaro will end up being the same way. I had a C6 and bought a C7 and I love it, also had a 2010 Camaro 2SS RS, sold it along with my C6 to buy my C7. Now I'm thinking of trading my wife's 2012 LaCrosse and getting her a 2016 Camaro SS.

The Hellcat is most definitely out of my price range. It cannot be compared to the SS Camaro, btw, i'm in CA too, and felt the pain this weekend when i filled up the tank.

saw one of these driving down the road and was like AHA cuz im pretty sure this is why they were trying to incorporate that little flare? at the back, anyways yeah Charger, Sure, if its a Hellcat. Challenger, Sure if its a Hellcat. and as far as mustang goes EWE, UNLESS its a shelby i do not like this year of regular/GT models unlike the previous Gen. the outside was overhauled leaving this inside with ALOT of dissapointment for me, i sat in one at our auto show and was very let down.... shifter is awkward in the Dodges for automatic, dont like the new lower trims front grille for the charger and nothing to complain about with the challenger cuz the taillights grew on me as soon as i saw them in person. Camaro does have issues, but the interior is WAY better looking TO ME than the plain looking dash of the stang....would buy the previous gen before this current one for interior as well, this camaro has so much more tech in comparison to previous models on the SS which is a win for camaro against the mustang from what i saw, no not a major outside overhaul like we expected but i was hoping for better inside and thats what i got lol. Everyone has their own opinion at the end of the day though. ill be saving for 2017 50th edition and see what minor improvements are made.
