For fun I then did the average price excluding the GT350R and SS 1LE, and it shot up to $166,556.

You can now say with certainty the Viper ACR is an excellent value, but also that the GT350R and SS 1LE are on another planet in terms of value per lap time.

Congrats to both Ford and Chevy. Those are the cars most "drivers" will actually buy. For the price of either one you can't go wrong.

Given the listed pricing above, the 1LE costs half as much as the GT350R. I daresay that the Camaro SS 1LE is the best value performance/driver's car, possibly ever.

And kudos to Ford for the GT350R, what an absolutely amazing car. Chevy and Ford know what's up, being able to create a driving experience like this, smoking cars 2-3x the price.
