If you look @ the sales brochures from the 14 C7 they always have the 1/4 mile times. Why Ford would not post any was a question I always had. Now I know why.
So I took their advise and cancelled my GT350 and bought a 2SS and saved over $12K @ MSRP Most have a $5K adm I got lucky. I wasn't planning on this until I took one for a ride and read the reviews. Outstanding work GM did with the new SS both style and hardware.
It's got luxury and track attitude if you want that. It's also got track attitude with out luxury if you want that. Ford charges $6500 for the track pack with mag ride then gives you $750 worth of springs , brace and a slightly bigger spoiler but no luxury @ all. GM charges $1695 - discounts for mag ride. The other option is luxury ( tech package ) $7500 including mag ride without the track package. It's either one or the other but not both.
This is what is funny. What was the first thing that owners of delivered cars did with them? They didn't go to a track they took them to the strip.
