Could the new S550 outperform Chevys new C7 for nearly half the cost?

[QUOTE="Fenixfire, post: 13739196, member: 37891"] Ok, yes, two different classes of car, but........... Maybe not at first but acouple years into the model run Think about it...... If the S550 weighs 200 lbs less than current 5.0 GTs then that puts it at around the same weight as a C7 which tips the scales at 3,444 lbs. Ford already said that it will handle better than a Boss Laguna Seca......and at some point in the First generation of this platform a 500 hp N/A 5.0 is only a matter of time which would put it well above the power output of the C7s LT1. The S550 GT would easily outrun a C7 stock for stock in a straight line with these characteristics and possibly around a track. All of this is just pure speculation of course. Just fun to think about. [/QUOTE]
