But these types of cars always end up back at the dealerships with very low miles and only a few months to a year or two later. I bought my 2010 2SS/RS in 2012 with only 10K miles on it for what I thought was a steal. It happens all the time. Which is why some people avoid buying them brand new altogether and just wait until a used one shows up.
The GT500 won't be "embarrassing" anything. It might be faster than the ZL1...exactly how much faster and at exactly what and if the amount that it is faster is proportionate to the HP it will have all still remains to be seen. But you can't "embarrass" a car that is completely unchanged 3-4 MYs after it has been out, lol!! We already know Ford had their hands full trying to match the ZL1 considering they had to push the release date back twice. That shows just how powerful and fast the ZL1 actually is. If anything, it just shows exactly what it takes to outperform a ZL1...3-4 years of development and way more HP. LOL!!

The quote of the year right there. ^^^
The Alpha SS embarrassed the GT. In manual and auto forms, they weren’t even close. Three model years into Alpha Camaro, a substantial redesign of the GT resulted in a drivers race edge for the A10, the M6 still trailing by three to four tenths, a failed PP1 and a PP2 that can hang for one lap.
The Alpha ZL1 matches a Hellcat at the strip and beats a GT350R on a road course with no drama, grand touring comfort. Ford GT500 delayed ...and delayed and will arrive in the ZL1’s fourth year ...a lifetime in automotive cycles
The ZL1 1LE is in a class by itself. ...as is the SS 1LE
I doubt anyone on team Camaro will feel embarrassed.
