In what context? Certainly not on the road course.

Carbon Fiber wheels are standard on the GT350R, not GT350. The GT350R also has sticker tires than the GT350. I doubt the Carbon Fiber wheels are really $20,000. At least not to Ford. They'll have a supplier agreement for price breaks.

I dont believe it was ever considered a competitor to the C7 Z06. Maybe the C6, which still performs pretty well.

There was plenty of fanboys on your mother site that thought it would.

It out performs a C7 Z51 for less $.. I wonder if Chevy will follow through and make a similar Camaro that does the same
