Lol I showed the previous owner of the my WS6 that article since he bought a Vette, and he was like that's Biased. The Vette has waaay more HP. He was going on about how he wanted to put new rockers in his car and that Vette rockers were so much more expensive than T/A ones. Lol kid got arrested in Canada for street racing the other day though, so haha whatever.
Vettes are "faster" because they are lighter and more aerodynamic. I know the autos have a higher facotry stall than the F-body, and correct me if I'm wrong, but the M6's have a better set of rear gears too I believe.
Any F-body should beat the Vette off the line though with equal drivers because they have the Live Axle. It's all just a big money making game though. I'm happy as hell with my car.

I still have my 6, its so fun to get in it and just tear around the twisties by me. The suspension right now is a ton better than the blown out shocks on the SS.

Crap, those v6's have 210 hp
My crappy 5.0 tpi only has 205
At least I'll own you guys on torque though
Edit: I just looked it up on thirdgen.org, I actually get 215 hp from the factory and 295 ft lbs of torque

on cars like that, they want that "all important" 0-60 number... so if you can hit 60 in first gear, its quicker then having to shift..... plus you get better MPG.
better performance? no.
better review in magazine? maybe so.....
