There is NO such thing as muscle cars anymore. No matter how much HP. There can never be muscle cars again, it will never be the same. If you have ever ridden/drivin a true muscle car, then drove a new camaro/mustang or whatever there is no comparison. And NO 4 banger should be considered a muscle car ever! That is just rediculous. I don't care if it has 600 HP in street trim, it's not a muscle car. Muscle cars died in the early 70's, and they cannot be remade. The only thing left is to restore them. |

the evo runs mid 13s and the sti can run low 13s oh we a decently close with so less power. see my point is not who will win my point is japs put so much less power in there cars and they come close to a lot and can beat a lot. motortrend june 2003 the evo laid down a 13.08 and the ford mustand svt cobra laid down a 13.01 wow thats close. the even ran the 600 ft slalom better then a vette z06, a viper rt-10, a ferrari and better then a lambo. top speed of the evo is 156 and the svt cobra 159, wow thats close. |

AWD is worthless once you get into REAL HP levels, the front tires lift off the ground.

http://www.camaros.org/copo.shtml If you actually read some of this stuff, you could be just a bit more informed on these cars. Fortunately for Fred, all 50 of his cars were approved for production. But unlike the Nova, other Chevy dealers were watching and wanted a piece of the action. One of those dealers was Berger Chevrolet out of Grand Rapids, MI. In the end, 69 of the ZL1 Camaro's were built, with 50 going to Fred Gibb and one going to Berger Chevrolet - the #3 car. Others found a home in other dealerships like Yenko Chevrolet. Ironically, the car was a sales dud. Originally targeted at $4,900 for the sticker price, Chevrolet was determined to charge for actual production costs. In this case, the "high performance" option chosen by Gibb added a whopping $4160 to the sticker and brought the total to some $7300. This was more expensive than even the 1969 Corvette and was equivalent to paying $50,000 for a Camaro in today's dollars. Oh, and these cars ran an 11.64 @ 122 MPH |
