    Fords Answer for the ZR1 Camaro....

    a 5.8 supercharged...damm hope the zl1 can whoop its ass
    to me the SVTs always have more power but the chevy is still faster lol




    Ford and the United Auto Workers recently signed a new four year contract, which will see a $6.3 billion investment in Ford's U.S. factories. The new contract also gives us some details about the 2013 Shelby GT500.

    There have been rumors that the next GT500 would get a 5.8L supercharged V8 to go head to head with the Camaro ZL1 and the latest contract between Ford and the UAW confirms this. Part of the contract states that Ford's Romeo Engine Assembly Plant will receive a $50 million investment and will produce the 5.8L supercharged V8 for the 2013 Shelby GT500.

    It's expected that the 2013 Shelby GT500 will pack over 600 horsepower.

    So is this meant to be a response to the ZL1 Camaro or the ZR1 Corvette? Because I think both will still be faster

    Im a GM fan till i die. The camaro could look like a gremlin and i would still like it more. Even if the mustang is factory stock, look at the variety of performance parts available for it compared to a mustang. Most mustang performance is designed around suspension instead of the drivetrain.

    new camaros are almost identical to the challenger. hell have the same floor pans and even quarters. I prefer the mustangs and have preferred them. Just that theyve been down on power for sometime now. When the coyote was released it just embarrassed the ls3 from the factory. Gm ruined the camaro by trying to make it to much like a vette. IRS doesnt belong in a car that was intended for straightline performance.

    I can't stand the new look of the camaros.. Body kit so tall it just looks like a nascar.. On the other hand, the new Shelby's look amazing, definitely would get one instead of a camaro..

    fords always a day late and a dollar short. their answer will always come in after the standard has been set as far as im concerned. Then again, ford sucks regardless. My grandparents all retired from GM. Its just whats in my blood.
