Camaro for the win again without even posting its biggest strength of the laptimes.

If Blaq unblocks me he might find this quote interesting as it's 100% what I've been saying. "With a talented 'shoe in control, the Camaro is quickest to 60 mph, a feat it manages in 3.4 seconds. At 11.5 seconds in the quarter-mile, it's only a tenth off the much more powerful GT500 because one had traction and one did not."
Also they finally called out the garbage launch control on the Camaro and Redeye, and reconfirmed the GT500 has good LC minus the delay.
I stand on both sides of this argument, because I think there are two things we sorta talk about at the same time. When comparing what manufacturers offer, I think it is only fair to compare at MSRP since what happens after that no manufacturer can directly control. Even doing this looks real bad for the GT500, as we have seen you get little for that $18,000 difference.

When talking about what actually matter, not solely about what Ford and GM offer, but talking what I can actually buy one for, which one I WOULD BUY, then the only real number that matters is price paid.

Even on M6G, some Mustang guys are saying, IF the price were the same I would take the GT500 for sure. A nice way of saying they would pick the Camaro.
