Default is this possible?

New b here. Name is Jeremiah. Just purchased a 2011 camaro. Stick. Black with red stripes. A friend of mine sent me a link from a thread on some rustang website. Look here. http://www.modularfords.com/forums/s...-stock-2011-gt

What's our cars run stock? This car feels like twelves all day. Comparing it to a 355 i had in a third gen camaro that ran 12.7's. These cars come with 3.73's?

I can only imagine the OP's reaction is mimicking the Hitler 5.0 vs Camaro video lol.

well, the mustang hasn't been any competition for the camaro since before 1992

it has been 20 years since we have had something to compete with stock vs stock

and now, ford has finally made a v-8 with 350+hp without adding a blower...... and they did this at a time the camaro weighs more than the new silverado hd dually

so, good timing for ford..... and they are finally making real power now

As stated, the new 5.0 is a slightly better car, but slightly better in pretty much every category you'd compare them in (cosmetics don't count, as everyone's tastes are different). Congrats on your purchase. The new Camaro is no slouch, but the Mustang will win in a straight-up race.

New 5.0>Camaro stock for stock in pretty much everyway.

I've been a diehard Camaro fan my whole life but I'd have to take the 5.0 over a new Camaro. New Camaros are ugly and overweight IMO. Kinda like Rosie O'Donnell..
