Don't mean to nit-pick here but the Mach1 only had 305, and was a true competitor to the SS Camaro while the Cobra was in it's own league for its final run.

Sure it had 305hp can't get to 320 without hitting 305 at one point. have you seen the dynos of 03 machs... equal or better then 2001 cobras which were rated 320hp.

Kinda like the 98 z28 had 305hp... sure gm..at the wheels maybe.


edit: and correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't it only the automatic machs factory rated at 305hp?

I meant the Mach when i posted, but the z28 too actually.

I knew both were underrated, but not by how much

Don't forget that the 03-04 Cobra is underrated quite a bit too. Some owners have gotten as much as 370RWHP from a stock terminator!

Price - price means everything in the current market. Examples" Lincoln LS, '05 Ultimate Edtion - sticker just over $45K (read it) at dealer, 45k mlies - $15.5K; '06 Caddy XLR - sticker about $85K, at dealer $30K (8k miles).
A V6 Camaro - hardtop for about $30K. You've got to be nuts to pay that. Just nuts.

technically its the same side of the car they're showing each time :P

but its true, each side of the car is different. It's a mocked up clay model showing more than one design at the same time
