No, it is not 3-4 tenths slower. Maybe with a good driver in a GT and a bad driver in a SS then the GT might not take a whupping. But on average it is at least half a second slower. 6th Gen SS Camaros are doing low 12s. S550 GTs are high 12s to low 13s. They are nowhere even close to a match.

Cant blame you for not buying it, Im not throwing 60k at a car I dont know what it feels like.

Nice excuse but it isn't related to the octane. It is a slow car. Especially if he had the non-Premium and non-PP GT. I had the Premium with a manual trans and 3.31 gears and it was not impressive at all. And on the first drive home I had the worst case of buyer's remorse that I ever had. Even after it went into the high octane settings after 2 tanks of 93 octane it still felt slow.
