I almost added FI to my '16 SS, then believe it or not my wife insisted on moving to the ZL1. After seeing me spend ZL1+ $$ on my 5th gen twin turbo 1LE, she did not want to see me go through that trail of tears again. I went A10 ZL1 after driving one. As has been said 1/4 times are not the whole end game in a toy car. With the ZL1 we have a world class super car with a forged motor ready for wherever we want to go. Fast, fun, and competent everywhere and the ZL1 is also a very good long distance GT. And girls keep asking for rides. I am not sure the ZL1 can be improved upon in any significant way except for visibility.

People act like the A10 magically transforms the Mustang into some super car. It's a low 12 second car that can occasionally dip into the 11s like the SS.
The SS is its competition, not the ZL1. Yeah you can modify any car to be faster than another, so? Put 8k into the Mustang, blah, blah, blah. In the long run it's NEVER just 8k or whatever number the kit cost. When you check everything that has to be upgraded or replaced along the way, the lost time, and the fact that the warranty (assuming there was one) is toast, the cost is usually a lot more. As for value for money, the Mustang is overpriced. The SS is a more complete and reliable car. The current Coyotes and Voodoos are junk, plain and simple! |

Now that publications and owners are figuring out how to properly launch the A10 GT and with good Fall air it is fast no doubt it may give a manual ZL1 a bit of a hard time but it will not run with a A10 ZL1 stock lets not be silly.

Have had autos in some past Camaros. Not gonna have one when I get a ZL1 even if it’s slower or has the bog issue. I just add 2 seconds in my mind onto any automatic tranny time because that’s the way I roll. 0-60, 0-100, 1/4 mile, mile or road course. Not that I have hit the track much. Always gonna be something faster out there.

Overall, Chevy is doing alright. C/D TEST RESULTS:Didn’t Car and Driver also just report that they ran a SS M6 at 0-60 in 4.0 sec and the 1/4 mile in 12.2 sec? Yes ...they did. https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews...on-performance

Laughable title and a joke of an opinion.

The difference is GM dropped the ball with the LT1. It needs better pistons. Coyote is forged since like 2016 I believe. Its crazy that we can grab a junk yard LS and throw more boost to it than you can an LT1. With boost out of the equation I agree.
