    Re: new Camaro website up

    By the numbers, yes, but as is true with all cars, crazy useless numbers don't mean much, that's why I still like my 928 above all other cars. A car is a lot more than HP or top speed. If the Mustang is to compete with this Camaro it needs an almost complete re-design. They have to capture the look of the black 67' in the video on page 2. (and my first car was a Mustang factory ordered)


    Re: new Camaro website up

    racerx:

    Have you been back to Orlando in the last 2 weeks? Because from what I can see they have only been shipping ZL1's since 3/31   http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4755109&postcount=24

    Anyway, what I meant by LOUD was only half directed at the exhaust sound (which can be greatly improved in the aftermarket) I was also referring to the wild colors and color combinations that only look good on true muscle cars. Orange cars with white stickers, bright yellow cars with black stickers, candy apple green etc. ............................

    AMG does make a nice exhaust sound straight from the factory, almost getting near the level of mine.Smiley

    I've been to Orlando last week... Smiley

    Smiley I'm working on it... Smiley

    A condo was always on my mind but there is the monthly maintenance cost and I don't want to rent it out. Prices are pretty interesting right now but I think I'm going to wait until I really take the decision to move to the US. I already found a legal way to obtain a green card pretty fast (after two years), so it is just a matter of time and...money. Smiley

    Plan is to spend October to May in Florida and June to September in Europe. Smiley Of course I have to retire first, which may take another 10 years or so. Smiley

    Re: new Camaro website up

    for entertainment purposes, (not a drag person), but the only significant change is the cams

    "The blistering 10.32 run was made with a full weight ZL1, using its stock 1.9 liter blower, stock heads, catalytic converters with a density altitude of well over 1000 feet. The ZL1′s mods include a Redline Motorsports proprietary camshaft, upper and lower pulleys, headers, improved heat exchanger, cold air intake, performance torque converter and Mickey Thompson drag radials. This bad ZL1 makes well over 750 horsepower and 700 ft-lbs of torque."

    first good stripe


    Re: new Camaro website up

    Here is another video of the same car. 

    I especially like the beginning with the car just idling - you have to love the sound of a big V8 with high lift cams.

    Re: new Camaro website up

    Mustang GT 500 -- 662 hp , 0-60 3.5, stopping 101 ft. 1g lateral grip all for $60K  not too bad, I would like a slight re-design, but as far as performance with a full factory warranty, you can't really beat it.

     

     


    Re: new Camaro website up

     Love the sound of the Mustang's, just tweak the looks a little and it would be just right, fun looking car ^^ and what a great growl, this is the best time ever for muscle cars.

    Yesterday I was watching some youtube stuff and this is something, this GT500 beats the SL 65  AMG Black series in raw horsepower, cornering, braking and 0-60, that is amazing.


    Re: new Camaro website up

    Take the Mustang performance and sound and mix it with the camaro looks and what a great car you would have. The Mustang does have some nice design elements. like the tail lights and the front grill area.

    This one is the same color as the one I ordered in 86 and the same as my 928

    great technical info here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTLZOJFLRnA

     


    Re: new Camaro website up

    even a nice looking guage at night

     


    Re: new Camaro website up

    Interesting numbers nowadays, after reading this I wanted to compare apples to apples, mainly because I watched this
