The intensity of the exhaust note reminds me of Steve McQueen driving the Mustang in the Bullitt car chase.

"I asked Oppenheiser one more thing about competition around the Z/28. His team wants it to go against the GT-R, sure." Too bad the price might be approaching the GT-R! I have a 2013 Boss 302 that sees track time and I would be willing to bet if I threw $40-50K at it...it would be as fast as a new Z-28! That being said, I was ready to buy a z-28 if the pricing was closer to a ZL1 to park next to my Boss

Check out the lead we had to the ZL-1 before the rain came.

BTW I wasn't asked to make it cheap... I was asked to make it FAST!

Price will be announced after the 1st of the year.

Mark - If you would have had a dry warm track what do you think the lap times could have been?

They aren't scared. I guess ford puts more focus on drag racing than road corse. Chevy doesn't stand a chance on the strip. And a factory camaro hasn't been 200mph yet. I still believe the mustang is a much better car and will be even better when the next generation comes out.

Go Seahawks!

j/k!

I do believe the next gen Mustangs will be a better car. The argument carries little weight IMO until the showroom versions both hit the road course heads up. Oh wait, didn't one of the magazines do that in the last year?
