you have it right at the end.its doubtful that we see a 650hp crapmaro.with that in mind i believe the mustang will be king again.now,if FORD wanted to destroy the vette or viper,they can come up with another FORD GT,or another COBRA 2 seater.:dancenana:I was talking about SS Camaro and Mustang GT not about the GT500 and the ZL1 or what ever GM calls their cars. the mustang currently makes 445HP at 6600RPM and who spins their cars that high? nearly 90% of mustang GT owners don't even see 6K.
the 6.2l LS3 is rated at 422HP right? in reality they make more than the mustang 5.0 at a lower RPM. if both the GT and SS weight the same the Camaro would overtake the GT, if this happens and some of you think oh ford will just up the power, well they do have plans for HP increase not much though but at what RPM are we getting that so called "extra HP" at? 7K 7400RPM? people don't think about that or where the power is made at in the RPM band and I see it a lot on this forum. now to the GT500 and Zl1 if both cars were to weight the same with a GT500 making 662HP vs a Camaro making 580HP at the same weight who's going to win that? the GT500 weighs 400pounds less? I cant remember the weight of the Zl1.
just because you think GM wont make a 650HP Camaro doesn't mean they will or will not offer it, although that is putting the Camaro into high end Vette power and that's something people don't want to see. ford gets away with this because ford has only the GT500, a mustang with a supercharger that's all it is nothing special ford has no sports car. so I don't think GM will have a 650HP Camaro things change though!
