Considering how well the 5th gen performed with it's handicaps i have no doubt the 6th gen will be electric. The stated 12.3 1/4 means it will go 11's completely stock in good air.

The alpha platform is nasty.

Yeah, and I hear the 1LE is going to get the z06/CTSV motor?

Good for GM. Gonna force dodge and ford to step up their shit.

Lol dodge.

Ford doesn't need to do shit, they set the bar. Good job for GM finally doing something right other than the vette, but fuck.

Dodge still is a joke.

I'm loving the new Camaro so much.
My next vehicle purchase is going to be hard..new truck cause can, or 2016 Camaro SS

Hell the V6 is actually pretty damn peppy too...

The Turbo 4 is similiar to the 4th gen LT1 in speed and acceleration.
"The 2016 Camaro 2.0L Turbo’s 275 horsepower rating matches the output of the 1993-1995 Camaro Z28’s 5.7L V-8 – and offers comparable acceleration performance."

What bar did ford set? The 2011-2014 GT made great gains with bolt ons and it was cheap. It was a few tenths faster than the 5th gen in the 1/4. Don't forget GM has been beating them with the catholic school paddle since 1993. For 4 years they had a slightly faster mustang and they built a handful of Ford GTs a decade ago.

It sounds like you have a really short memory lol. Just like anyone that owned a mod motor powered mustang that didn't come with a factory blower. That was 15 years of RAPE.

When ford started producing something other than the 4.6, they set the bar.. And I'm talking about a lot more than performance. Those Camaros are as appealing as a mid 90s 5.0 asthetically, they are actually difficult to drive due to blind spot issues, every time I got in one "keep in mind, it was a 2012" I felt like I was going to rip off the floor board in it.

I probably shouldn't have said "about time gm", but yeah Ford has definetly set the bar now, since they have more than the terminator, and they are appealing to more than 1 market, with the Fuckus ST.. So yeah, id own a corvette far before a mustang, but performance wise, market share wise and asthetically "my opinion" ford has had GM beat for the last almost 5 years .. It's like when Chevy came out with the crew cab... The following year, dodge released the Mega Cab just to say "fuck you".
