Motortrend = lol

How about we deal with published facts when it comes to weight.

Camaro
3750 / 1705 - LT automatic
3741 / 1700 - LT manual
3769 / 1713 - LS automatic
3780 / 1718 - LS manual
3913 / 1779 - SS automatic
3860 / 1755 - SS manual

GT500
3820 (This is the iron-block version, 2011 gets aluminum)
Except the stock Z06 would destroy the GT500 on any road track.. How did we get to comparing to a Vette???

For now the GT500 is 3820... it's really doesn't matter what it might weigh in the future.

What if I bought a used Z06 to compare to the new GT500??
