Walked away with it if you ask me because there was no answer to the Z/28. The new Mustang is great, but still, for a Mustang lol.

Rather than take the piss out of Mustang6 engineers, I would like to take the time and give all credit to those that were involved in developing the Camaro and the packages that came with it... Back to the drawing board, again! It doesnt effect me, but this has got to hurt for some. The 5th gen will now reach legendary status. Retro, edgy, good looks, and the most rounded modern day classic money can buy. You can have it all if your driving one of these.

It may not sound like much, but for a mile and a half road course that's a pretty big difference. As I've always heard it, anything more than about half a second on a typical road course isn't considered to be all that close.
