To be honest, before buying my SS I researched the *living hell* out of both cars. Every comparison I read showed the SS outperforming the 5.0. Handling, 1/4 mile, skid pad, braking, lower curb weight, etc. Close comparison, don’t get me wrong, but SS was ahead and for less money once you put any real options on the car.
I would also question the mod price. The 5.0 has 4 cams to buy instead of one. 32 valve springs and followers instead of 16. Blowers, headers, exhaust systems are all priced similar too.
Again, hope I’m not coming across combative. It’s just that everything I read prior to my purchase (and test driving both before my purchase!) tells me differently.
