HP per liter is to some extent simply a measurement of where your car redlines. I would agree that it's kind of useless when discussing muscle car engines-because face people talk about HP, but TQ is what makes muscle cars interesting. And yes, HP/$ is clearly important for us regular joes on a Camaro forum. However at the extremes, HP/L can get pretty exciting (may I direct your attention to the Ferrari 458?). So I wouldn't say it's a useless stat, just not particularly germaine to Mustang v Camaro.
