The GT hits 60 in 5 flat, a V6 Camaro has 300HP,there is not a dog in the bunch,we are living in the best pony car era ever. In the age of a Prius being a celebrity car,we should all be excited that Ford makes a 540HP GT500 or that you can get a 422HP Camaro for 30K. This isn't going to last forever.

More like I'm pretty sure.
I don't recall the numbers that were quoted, but I remember seeing see some numbers they said that went through that rear end without trouble. That tranny is stout enough for the ZR1, CTS-V, GT500, ?Viper?, etc., I think she'll take a pretty good amount of power.
