Default Re: Chevrolet pulls the wraps off of the new Camar

Mark you are right my 4000 pound GT 500 was a slug in stock configuration really a turd. If Shelby wouldn't have converted it into a Supersnake I would have sold it. 500 HP just wasn't getting it done with all that weight. It really wasn't much faster if at all than my 03 SVT Cobra with 400 HP and 3500 pounds? If we the dumb consumers realize weight is everything where performance is concerned why don't the factories???? Even Carroll Shelby said recently is tired of these overweight retro cars and is working with Ford on hopping up there 4 cylinder rice type cars.
