We're doing his because it's all there is to do while were waiting on the production Camaro's to get into owners hands. 90% of what has been thrown out in this thread is speculation or hearsay regarding the actual performance of both cars and it will remain so until both the Camaro and Mustang variants hit he streets, drag strips and road courses.

The only people who are comparing the SS Camaro to the GT500 are the die-hard GM people that cannot seem to handle the fact that GM does not currently produce a pony car that competes directly with the GT500. If/when they produce one, then I will be one of the first people looking to buy one to put in the garage next to the GT500.

In the end, this is the performance hierarchy,as they stand today, between the Mustang and the Camaro in stock form:

GT500>Camaro SS>MustangGT>Camaro V6>Mustang V6.

Once we have verified performance data, this could very well change, but for now, this is how it looks to play out.
