A Pontiac buddy of mine in Texas bought a new 2003 Mach 1. He's a racer at heart, and definately knows how to shift (he also has an 11 second street driven Firebird). He bolted on a set of Nitto drag radials onto his new Mach 1, and hit a 12.99 @ 106.2 mph in some good air. At first I thought it wasn't that big a deal, because Z06's and Vipers are quicker, plus he had to do it on drag radials. But when you sit back and realize that for around $25K, the guy has a brand new, warrantied car, that's a solid low 13 second daily driver.

When I go to Memphis Motorsports Park one of the spots in our trailer is occupied by a buddies '02 SS Camaro (M6, 4.10, all the goodies). It's stone stock except for the gears and a set of Nittos, and I've seen him go 12.45@107+. I shudder to think how quick a base Z or Formula would go since they don't have to carry all the weight from the extra bells/whistles!

Rob my buddy Chris has a 01 Z28 Bone stock LS1 6 speed. All he had done was a Whisper lid, MAF, Smooth bellows, and a Loud mouth exhaust, and ran a 12.84 @ 111mph on stock tires and stock gear. Them cars RUN!!! He actually wants a piece of you!

The cool thing would be to get a 1LE SS Camaro. They are bare fisted street warriors with no options....crank windows, no power locks, etc.

That interior is some kind of photo doctoring or aftermarket. The interiors do look cool with retro styling. Seats, gauges, trim, shifter, etc. all with a retro theme.

The shaker hood is the coolest thing I have seen put on a modern car from the factory....man, Ford is sure on the ball in the hi-po car dept!
