You are assuming that higher grade materials = heavier, which in fact most of the time is exactly the opposite. The mustang gt as it sits is multiple thousands of dollars cheaper than the ss.

I would really like to know how you think the new 5.0 (assuming it is an aluminum block/head 3v engine like the current 4.6) is going to outweigh an iron block 5.4 with 60 lbs of blower/intercooler sitting on top? A better transmission doesn't necessarily add weight either. You are making very broad assumptions from little information and some of them are almost comical. The camaro is not some godly machine like it was thought to be when the ls1 was first put in. I wouldn't expect the ls3 camaro to be much quicker than the ls1, if it is at all and bolt on s197's are in that league. Expect a good race. That's what you're gonna get.

right.
