Some of you guys are missing one very key point mentioned in the original post. RWHP... Unfortunately which tranny was used was not mentioned, so if we assume the F-Body made 400 RWHP through an unlocked A4 it is much closer to the C6 Z06 460 RWHP through an M6 than some of you are figuring. If we use the fall back numbers of 25% loss through an A4 with a loose converter compared to 15% loss through an M6, then all of a sudden we are comparing a 533 HP F-body to a 540 HP Vette. I think it would only take some minimal suspension work and some minor weight reduction on the F-body to make up that defecite. That said, throw a good clutch, some sticky tires and find a way to get rid of the TM on the Vette and its a whole different race. No matter what, I would still much prefer the C6 Z06.

I dont see the point though, if cobracommander is comparing a gutted, huge stall, built rear, built tranny, full suspension 400 rwhp fbody on a sticky tire then yes it could beat a stock c6 z06 on a street tire in the 1/4 mile, but what the **** is the point? A shopping cart with an ls1 strapped to it could do the same to both, but whats the point? Its just stupid to compare the two...

damn 427 ci with superior heads intake lighter weight vs 346ci what do you think .

it is all relative, if u make 150k a year you would prolly be driving a c6 zo6 then a ls1 fbody that can be purchased for 7 or 8k nowdays.

The two cars I see myself having sooner rather than later: Mercedes SL-65 and Ferrari F-430 Spider.
Yes, my Camaro can smoke both of them; just because it can however doesn't mean its better than my two choice "turds" as you would refer them to be.

I mean you talking about a built drag car with 400 rwhp and significantly lightened against a stock c6 z06, which doesnt make much sense to compare because you are comparing two cars built for totally different purposes. Hell you could be that same 400 rwhp built fbody with a completely gutted 300-350 rwhp notchback mustang with a built suspension/rear/stall/etc, but what does that prove?
