At least stop the generalizing. I didn't buy my '08 Mustang for it having any claim to be a muscle car, nor would I buy any S550 because of that. Wouldn't buy a Camaro for that reason either.

And try to understand that not everybody values drag racing stats as highly as you seem to. If that's a good enough reason for you to pick the Camaro (or keep you happy with it), that's fine with me and I can be happy for you. But it's never been a reason for me to pick any of the cars I've ever owned, and with my next birthday cake needing room for 70 candles never will be. I've learned a few things about myself along the way . . .


As to GT350R pricing . . . "there's a sucker born every minute" and there certainly are people with more money than good financial sense about the smaller expenses in their lives.
