Still hard to ignore that the ZL1 crushed the last GT500's time at VIR (the time Ford supplied that noone could equal...) by over 5 seconds.

It beat the GT-R's best lap anyone has recorded, as well, while it was at it.

Both will be crying when gas hits 5 per gallon

If you pay $50k+ for a car I doubt you give a **** how much gas costs.

Pretty much.

The 2013 GT500 avoids gas guzzler taxes, so that means it gets more than 20 MPG combined. So that's what I'm getting right now so no difference there.

Yes, because an extra 10 cents per mile will bankrupt someone driving a 60k car

But what will be the best car for people that want an FI'd Japanese supercar that is affordable in 1992 dollars?

:gtfo2:

Thanks for posting the laps of VIR Import. As I said before the ZL1 is a total package not just one nice part. A short throw shifter, D shaped steering wheel, of course the supercharger, liquid to liquid inter cooler, oil cooler, trans and rear end inter cooler/warmer, electromagnetic shocks with 5 presets from wet roads to racetracks, integrated aero pieces including under hood air extractor, under body belly pan,vacuum operated exhaust by-pass, Baer 6 piston front/4 piston rear calipers, two piece rotors. Thats a package made for those of us that are seeking performance driving and are willing to pay a fair price for it.:ughdance: As I posted before I'm looking forward to track days with GT500's, GT-R's, ZO6's, Ferrari's, Lambo's all the high performance cars. Do I think that my car will be the fastest, hell no but it will be fast and I will enjoy my time going to the track and on the track.

Dude, the camaro sounds sick. I only knew about some of these features. The SS also comes with the coolers which is something I greatly appreciate observing and having driventhe bowtie... honestly dude, you don't have to justify your wanting to purchase a camaro to anyone. Its a great car. Just enjoy yourself and make sure you come back and do one of those Z comparos that don't even match up because they are different types of cars.
Then y'all could argue pointless shyyyt all over again.
:bowrofl::bowrofl:

Difference between being able to afford it vs. caring about it. Not saying guys cant afford it, but it gets old when each fill up is 90 bux for 300 miles. 50k is expensive, but it isnt f you expensive

You don't buy a car that uses up a lot of gas if you can't afford it.

At least I hope not.

One thing is that for me this not a daily driver so you aren't filling up with gas all the time. Of course I don't own a gas efficient vehicle as my DD is a Titan.

I don't have $55k laying around to buy a car to drive every once in a while.

As it is I'd get either the ZL1 or the GT500.

But what ever I do get I'll drive every day.

Lemers if ya ever tried to drive a high HP RWD car in snow and ice you'd know why they aren't DD's. My truck is 4WD which definitely helps in those conditions. m4 I agree nobody should have to defend ther choice of vehicles we buy what we want, OK maybe anybody that bought a Yugo but LOL
