Those are some pretty impressive numbers! I thought that most manufacturers over rated the numbers to boost sales...

If you think the dyno review was impressive check out the review of the 2011 GT.

I am even more pissed off at the cheby camero than I have ever been. Why did it take them so long to bring it into production? What? Huh? Is it really surprising that after the new camero comes out and with horsepower numbers of 300 and 400 for the V6 and V8 that Ford was able to not only beat them but really kick'em in the arse. But now the 2011 Mustang will kick my arse. :cry So if I put a whipple on mine it will only get me even with the 2011 Mustangs. :beat Guess that I have to wait for the 2017 Mustangs and hope that they do not totally screw up the styling on them and power them with electric motors. :craz BTW good going Ford. I heard on the news yesterday that sales were up 40%, in fact everyone except dodge was doing better. So back to my original point. That is competition makes things better for the consumer. So what is cheby doing to do next? fd

It depends on how much the federal government wants to spend on research and development. :lol

I'm pretty sure this is what will next occupy my garage. My '01 Bullitt is great, but is getting long in the tooth. I have to work on it more than I want to and know it will only get worse with time. I prefer the size and design of my '01, but the performance and features of the '11 are hard to pass on.

I'll wait 'til they start showing up for sale used, though. I bought my last new car in '92 and I predict that will be my last new car.
