It sounds like the Hennessey is giving up wayyyy too much to be where the GT500 is with a few bolt-ons.... "The HPE550's humongous 275/40R20 front tires are so big that they deaden the steering and there's no real payoff in instantaneous turn-in. Combine that with Hennessey's suspension package, which features springs that are too stiff and shocks that are under-damped, and the result is a car that never feels settled or comfortable over any surface" Doesn't it sound like a joy to drive?

Camaro owners can do much better by selecting 'best in class' vendors and modding with the big-picture in mind.

I don't get it either. I mean, why would anyone want to compare a $62,500 car to one costing $12.5 less?

The comparison is fair because the 62,500 car is only worth about 50k. Given the same fuel the 0-60 and 1/4 mile times would've probably been almost exactly the same. The Mustang is the better car here and cost way less.

There's two ways to compare vehicles. By price, or by HP/features. By price is the way a real world buyer would do it. By HP/features is just for fun.
