2012 Camaro

GZ3

this car will be in the BOSS 302 price bracket, if the numbers hold true and reflect performance then the Boss just became a huge subordinate

More like in the GT500 price bracket in which case the ZL1 starts off as a slight subordinate.

The plan that I heard is that the ZL1 is to fight the Shelby Mustang, while the Z28 is more track focused and will fight the Boss. But I could be mistaken.

Lug

The MSRP of the Boss is $40,145 according to Edmunds. The MSRP of the Shelby GT500 is about $49K. The Boss usually will have a dealer markup though I'v seen a few people order them for MSRP already. The GT500 has about the same HP as the ZR1 and is significantly lighter.

Totally false.

550bhp is not "about the same" as 638.

3750# is not lighter than 3350#.

ZR1 owns the GT500 in everything but cost and off-road ground clearance, lol

Red370

We'll see about that one, MT will do a comparo and I got my money on the fact that the GT500 will still beat it in every tested event.

You're right. I came in and looked at the last few posts and made mine. I thought somewhere the thread had been de-railed into the typical "GT500 vs. Corvette" topic.

My fault for not reading the whole thing before I posted, and I just let it stand afterward.

Fail. He obviously meant ZL1, ImportConvert. Given the thread title you should have noticed this. Cut the guy some slack.

Yep, just one tiny misplaced letter and I-R-A-putz.

there is a new Boss in town.

The ZL1 has to come in at much less than the $50k estimate

wait for the comparison test

I want the Ford

badly

I'm a total GM fan, but Ford nailed it with the new 5.0 car. If I were buying a car in that market segment, it would be the mustang.
