Wanna be able to stop? Gotta order the Brembos. A base GT is $30,495 a 1SS is $31,795. The GT's brembo option is $1695 which raises it's price to $32,190. On top of that if you want to swap out the standard 3.31's with the 3.55's or more likely the 3.73's it's another $395. Which brings it up to $32,585. Even then the Camaro and Mustang are neck and neck in the 1/4 mile. So if your talking getting into a V8 then sure you can get a stang cheaper but as for more bang for you buck the Camaro wins.
FYI you do NOT have to add ANYTHING to the 11 GT to perform with an SS, the stock brakes match or beat the SS 60-0, a 3.31 equipped GT has already tied the BEST Camaro SS time at 12.58, so yes, bang for your buck, the Mustang IS the better deal.
