Come on down, got some fresh asphalt ready for us. I may have to wait for you to install that whole box of goodies though.

So EVERY LS1 fbody, milage not in question, is going to run 105 stock? Are you a doornob? Sales figures and profits are in two different ballparks, and now, no matter what, stock LS1 Fbodys will run 103-105 until they die. No wonder they call it gods motor.

Bottom line: both cars are fast, but they shouldn't be compared.

The 2002 Z28 coupe MSRP was $22,700. You can compare that with the 2002 Mustang GT which was $22,965. They are competitors.

The 2003 Mustang Cobra coupe MSRP was $33,750 which means they were more than $11,000 more expensive than the Camaro Z28. They are not competitors.

You can't compare those cars any better than you can compare a Z28 to a base Mustang. In fact theres actually a smaller price gap between the base mustang and the Z28.

Sorry our cars are worth more new and used.

i think that that is a fairly good point... although termys are faster than us... we out run WELL beyond the majority of stangs... never really thought of it that way.... i know this is something we have to do.. (defend our makes)... but... i think this same discussion has been brought up 92437078 times before..... nobody is going to change anybodys mind unless they are willing to let it change...

Nope. My Daily Driver street car is in that box. And trust me, its a good sized box. It might even be considered fast by LS1tech standards. All I am saying is that there is a BIG difference between Profits and Sales figures. In doing so, I proved that instead of going to english class, I was smoking way too much pot.
