I think that whole hi-rev, hi-rev "sound", is fool's gold and just a gimmick...a dangerous (for the street) gimmick...Let Ford have it, the Camaro doesn't need it...Just look at the reviews for the Best Driver's Car and Lightening Lap...That hi-rev Ford is good for some "sound", but that's about it....
The GT350 ranked higher than the camaro in both the lightning lap and best driver's cars. Not gods gift to cars, but very obviously not a gimmick LOL

Performance cars nowadays are ALL too powerful for the street (or "gimmick" as you like to call it). You lay into a camaro or corvette, and you will be playing with fire too.
