The thing here that bother me is the 1/4 time of 13.0 sec @ 109.6 mph. I mean, heck, the 2002 Camaro SS could do that with an intake and a very good driver. The mustang (2005-2008) GT with a very good driver is more than capable of running 13.4ish with a 1.6L difference and 115-122hp difference. I for one will be dissappointed if the Camaro SS (6M or A6) averages anything less than a 12.5-12.8ish (with a slightly better than average driver). Do I have a legit beef here or is it just me? I just "assumed" that the Camaro SS 6M will perform ever so slightly better than the GXP for <$11K difference. I don't want to have to do a single mod to spank a 2005-2012ish Mustang GT with mods such as: full exhaust, gears, intake, and tune. Perhaps that is unreasonable. Ok, feel free to flame me if you think my rant is unreasonable.

I'm with Crowley - show me another 35K car that will do 13 flat, including Mustang. If you want to go low 12's, just put a hot cam and 3.90 gears in her.
