The article mentions the SS was .2 faster in the 1/4 mile(13.0 vs 13.2) and only .1 slower lap time(1:37.7 vs 1:37.6). That is yet another mainstream review showing the Camaro beating the 5.0 in the 1/4 mile. It's ALMOST exactly the same in lap times too, and that's considering the Mustang had all the performance upgrades you can buy (gearing, brembos, etc) and was $3500 more expensive.

As mentioned many times before, performance metrics are SO close in these cars it's almost a wash. You pretty much have to buy the one that makes your heart race when you see it.
