Oh and as an FYi, the crappy drivers at Edmunds got a 12.6 for a stock 11 SRT8 and they frankly suck at driving......
You still miss the point

V6 to V6
SS to R/T
ZL1 to SRT

V6 to V6
SS to GT
ZL1 to Cobra

Price is irrelevant when you are talking classes. The class the ZL1 falls in is the top dog of the Camaro lineup. That's where the SRT8 is...

You don't run a base Corvette against the Viper, you run the ZR1.... You don't run a V6 Camaro against the Mustang GT...

So almost 7 grand more for a (43-45k) SRT8 over a (30-37k) SS, yet that's somehow a better match than a 50k ZL1??? What?!?!
