Not sure how the GT500 is easier and cheaper to get power out of. Isn't the GT500 already supercharged??? ITs base price is alot more then a Camaro 2SSRS as well, even add a super charger, CAI, LT Headers, High flow cats and a quality custom exhaust and you would SPANK the performance of the GT500 and probably still have less invested in the camaro.

The GT is lighter and geared lower which will make up for some of its performance level but those are pretty easy upgrades on a camaro as well for the investment you would have into a GT500.

Now, if you get a really good price on a used car, thats a different story but to my way of thinking, why would someone by a car like this???? To drive the hell out of it and then you get whats left over.

If you got a hair for a GT500, by all means go for it but I do not understand how you can say that its easier and cheaper to get the power you want. YOu own your camaro, another $8500 and you could have a supercharger with water/meth injection system and have some scary power and in most opinions around here, have it in a car that looks much better then the stang.

Do whatever floats your boat!!!
