Yea your right just checked it out. Thanks for informing me. I feel this is a good post though because this is the article portion of it with a link included. In the multimedia section, it shows nothing but videos, no words at all just the video review. Besides all ppl dont check the multimedia section. I barely do thats why i didnt know the video was already posted lol. I see ppl in that thread asking questions like how much is the GTR etc. and all that can be found here since its a article posted with a link and a little bit of info i posted about each car for comparison instead of just vids.

You get what you pay for with these cars... The Shelby is much improved but still not in the same class as the others, too bad the GT isn't around anymore

Yeah, 35k buys a lot more stuff at this level. I think it is impressive what the GT500 can do compared to these two. It will be interesting to see how the ZL1 stacks up, although to me it's already in the negative due to the crummy pistons.
Although I am a little bias
