That carbon package includes the super spending wheels. I wouldn't get that even one time!

Before anyone decries foul for non-factory rubber on the 1LE - can we just agree that pitting the mechanics of which car is best on a road course, is best done on the same compound?

That post was meant for oneslowV...not sure what happened there. Doesn’t matter...GM 2 valve ‘ol tech can kick Ford’s 4 valve azz any day.

Problem is most want a rumpy rump rump cam, running low compression (n/a), junk lifters, seat pressure to the moon springs, subpar gearing and get walked by a turd.
That’s the reality of the matter.

I don't mind the visibility, but good god are the back seats terrible. Just had my friend ride back there, he is 5'5" and was still hitting his head on the roof. I'm 5'10" and had the seat up as far as I could and he still had barely any foot room. The sad thing is that the Mustang is worse.

No, it’s not.
I drive my 18 every day and my 9 year old daughter sits back there pretty good - it’s 30% better than the Camaro if I had to put a metric on it - does not even compare to the back seat of a Hellcat Challenger though

Here is Challenger

My brother in law got rid of his modded 16SS just for that reason - we’ll and trans shutter after we changed converter and fluid but the back seat would not fit their new baby in any way form or fashion - car had 8k miles too and he bought a Honda

I thought running the same tires was a good call. Puts them on equal footing and the camaro just flat waxed the 5br0s ***. Gm chassis dynamics has been way ahead of furds for a very long time.

And still more manly than you.

Troof.....if both are on point the furd v8s can't compete.

It's pretty sad when a 3rd/4gen has more rear seat room than thevnew pony cars.

One thing an autocross racer told me is that the Mustang due to the DOHC set up has a lot more weight higher than the pushrod motor does and it makes a difference.

One just ran 8.9 blowing the tranny and coasting through at 116 mph. They thinking it is a 8.5 ish car when they fix the trans and dialed . SBE but it does have heads cam. 2650 car

the gt500 should be able to rape the nearly 4 year old zl1. It’s almost time for another model by now. An lt5 in a zl1 would be nice

Not even 4 years old is old enough to use it as an excuse now if GT500 ends up being faster? LMFAO!
