However if you properly set your mirrors you should be fine. But for added peace of...

I should be more clear--I'm specifically talking about the 70K Mustang here, not the ZL-1. The ZL-1 is still a performance bargain at 70K.

The pony cars always punched above their weight in price per performance. That was largely true for the recent generation of V8 cars as well. They truly do perform as well as some 65K+ cars.

Who cares? The power of the Camaro was never a problem. It's still the best performance car in its price brackets. The lack of a power bump is not the reason it sold poorly.

Don't look at the HP too much. The BMW M340i is very close to the Charger Scat Pack in speed, and it starts in the upper 50K range. On paper it has a lot less power, but that's mainly due to the...

Eh, people are paying 55K+ for Dodge Charger Scat Packs when they could get a BMW or Audi sedan for the same price. So would you rather have a BMW or a Dodge at that price?

2023 model year (which is out now) is the final year for the Stinger.
