Personally I like the style and looks of the Camaro5. (though the trunk is ugly when open) Other than that.... My LS3 1SS is making close to 550at the rear wheels.. that's with K&N, Muffler Delete, Diablo Trinity, and NX Wet Plate System on 150-shot. I'll post a video reply in a week or two when I get a better dyno run in.. Last time I dyno'd with only 800psi bottle pressure.. now I have a bottle heater and will run at 1150psi
I can't understand why people post a dyno run and then not show the actual readout. We have to take their word for the results. I find it interesting that the 6.2 stock puts out these numbers stock . The 6.4 Hemi Challenger, just .2 of a liter bigger puts 420hp and 420ft/lbs/tq to the ground, also bone stock. Hennessey showed even better numbers than that. If you allow 18% for drive line loss that puts the engine ponies at close to 496, it's rated at 470. Me thinks someone is fudging a bit.
@32bitcal - I didn't say mustang was as good or better, but they compete for the same market. Who do you think competes with Camaros? Civics? Lotus Elise? Ferrari F430? Lol.
I don't understand why you morons are comparing a Vette to a Camaro. Have you not figured out they come from the same company? No car company puts out two sports cars in the same class. Camaro competes with Mustang and Charger, not Vettes. Most of you can't afford either, but I'd rather have a Camaro SS and save about 40k.
@ChocolatePoop2891 Uh, no car company puts out 2 cars in the same class? Chevrolet camaro, and a pontiac firebird T/A. Same car, different badges. Granted the firebird is no more now, but the point remains. For proof of concept, dodge neon and plymouth neon...two companies...the car even caries the same name...LOL! But seriously, I see your point...the camaro is clasefied as a muscle car, the vette as a sports car.
@im1469 - That did not make sense at all. Pontiac and Chevrolet are not the same company. Yes, they are GM, but if all GM companies made cars for a single car class each company would only have 1-2 cars. Muscle car is a type of sports car. The difference is the vette is super sport. How many compact cars does Ford make, one. How many full size cars does Buick make, one.
@im1469 - My baddd. Wasn't really the best attempt at sarcasm. Most people on YT that say things like that are as serious as cancer. People often ascribe all GM cars as being the say, just as they call a Lexus a rebadged Toyota. I'm curious if these people every test drive the cars the censure.
@ChocolatePoop2891 i find it useless to have such a nice motor in a tank of a car...vettes are a whole new game...my 05 goat rapes these new ss. camaros. especially the automatics.
@kief4diamonds - I don't know know what you mean by finding it useless. It's performs well in every aspect of it's category and provides much more bang for your buck than many cars. Comparing manual to automatic is a fool's comparison. Your GTO might beat a new SS Camaro, but I would hardly call it a rape. That I would reserve for a vette versus something like a Civic. Still, just because your car, or any other you offer for comparison, could beat a Camaro SS doesn't mean it's a bad car.
@kief4diamonds - And I was explaining how vettes and Camaros are in a different category to someone else who said Chevy already makes a sports car, so I think you took something out of context.
The GTO weighs only 135 lbs less than the Camaro 2SS, so why would you call it a boat if you drive that? Plus, the GTO has the most generic and bland styling of any car with that kind of power. It's basically a car for people who want to go fast in a straight line, brag about HP, and nothing else.
oh shit that's more than a 05-07 C6 i guess coz it had the ls2 , but still it would suck big time to be smoked by a factory camaro in your ls2 C6.... vette owners are gonna be beating themselves up for not waiting for the all too common 3-4 year Engine change on vettes and camaros.... GM changes engines like a woman changes clothes.....
you know i wish cyber fighters like you would say some shit like that to my face in the real world someday.... thanks for the info... FUCK YOU FOR THE INSULT!!
Yeah, I don't get why people get so defensive about a positive comment... Maybe you attacking someone would warrant such a smartass comment from you2448, but that was uncalled for by him. I still think the vette would win... A lot lighter. You're also driving a sexier car, I think. That's coming from a huge camaro fan.
so that was about a 12 percent drivetrain loss

not a chance of that happening. The Vette is a good 6-800lbs lighter.
