From the CamaroZ28 Site

Enjoy....

The SVT badge on the Tach is actually a programmable shift light...
hahaha wicked....

 

Not their comments. Goodness gracious! What a bunch of boring guys.

No wonder GM thought these guys would bite on the GTO.

 

I think the shift light would drive me nuts. I used to drive an old Volkswagon rabbit years ago that had that. Ugh. I hope they give us more than that.

 

The Borlas dictate when I shift not the idiot light.

I would think it will be standard on the GT500s as it was on '03/'04 Cobras. That might be Ford's way of expressing its commitment to gasoline conservation and keeping the green peace whinners happy.

 

I wonder why this appeared on the camaro forums and not here.

nvm. Misunderstood :bang: :bang:

 

They've run out of topics.

 

The GM guys think the Shelby, is UGLY. Are they joking????? Those firebirds and trans ams all look like trash.

 

Its funny...the comments on most from that board are hilarious.

'its funny how it takes a ford thats 8 years older to beat an F-Body'
It's like none of them learned that, a fast piece of crap is just a fast piece of crap....
With the new Camaro coming...I'm glad NONE of those guys run GM...or they'd have the most expenisve engine they can find in another crap box.... and it still wouldn't sell to more than 10,000 a year...

Those who don't learn by history are doomed to repeat it.

I think deep down they are afraid that the new Camaro won't have an offering that will compete with the top Mustang....

 

So have we!!!! Just look at some of the post.

 

My favorite post was from sliderz28:

"What does "Shelby" have to do with it?"

Wow... just wow...

 

That's the Road and Track article. It has been discussed here.

 

Only they have run out of replies as well. They don't quote and elaborate on each others' opinions, they copy and paste.

BRILLIANT!!!

 

Here's a good one!!

"intake is on backword ...

The way GM is going we all know what is coming... The camaro will come back in 2008-9 with a 225HP V6 and a 180HP V4

to Ford for atleast trying to keep one of the great cars still alive . Im hateing GM more everyday ."

 

Arc05, thats actually a very good question. Shelby had absolutely nothing to do with it (unless you count whoring ones name out as project development)

 

It's not just the Camaro guys that think that.
I've been a Mustang guy for over 20 years and I'm on my 5th one. Visually, the only things I like that they changed compared to the GT are the V6 side moulding, the stripes and the wheels.
The rest of the changes are hideous... especially that rear spoiler.
(flame suit on )

 

Actually I don't have an opinion on your assessment of the GT500.

 

What I think is funny is the mach has been beating up on ls1's all the time.

Well, where's the fun in that? :scratch:

 

haha, I love the 'rules of the LS1' posted in other threads...

'LS1s are handbuilt by god himself... they are unbeatable'
LT1s are unbeatable, only by LS1s
LS2s are twice the power of LS1s... they too are unbeatable.
If you beat an LS1, it was because the person was not racing..not tuned right...playing with you...clutch problems...
you beat the driver..not the engine....'

 

The sad part is, the LS1 really does rock hard core--cheap to produce too. And cammed and ported...not much will beat them.
