But what is the Torque? that is where the extra CI usually gets the most benefit.

Mustang 412 HP
Camaro 426HP

Mustang 390Ft Lbs
Camaro 420Ft Lbs

14 hp but 30 ft Lb torque difference.

Also the 5.0 has 4 valves so it breaths better off the bat without a cam(s) swap.

Mustang 3600lb

But honestly money will be the only limeting factor with these cars and the aftermarket.

off the showroom floor the Mustang with brembo brakes and 3:73 gears will out run the 2010 Camaro.

Whoever has the deepest pockets will be fastest always has been and always will be that way.

it's all bench racing until you get it on the track... I bet in many cases the driver will be the determining factor, as it is today...

They still dont compare in looks, the Mustang isn't even on the same continent.

I agree, it's out of this world! There's nothing that can really compare to it the new mustang is that good! The new retro camaro is almost as good though, i'll give it that.

5.0 GT may be fast, but there is no replacement for displacement. Call it what you want, but 6.2 is a bigger number than 5.0 and the 6.2 has more torque.

I dunno man. The v6 and gt are mighty boring looking. Im pretty sure you would find that under fact in the dictionary.

I know one thing, I cant wait to start lining up next to 5.0's on the street again.
