Dude, tell him to wait for the ZL1. It will rape the GT500!

The GT500 has a nice aggressive look and is alot of car for the money. Personally, I would have waited for the ZL1.......but that is because I have GM loyalty.

I love the GT 500. I may be alone, but I also like the Mustangs; I just like Camoros more. And if I could afford it, I would get a ZL1 over the GT.

I think you are going to be disappointed.




I love Camaros, but the Mustang has us beat in the go fast department right now. At first I didn't like the way the new mustangs looked, but they have grown on me. I would never bit one because I'm a GM man till I die, but in a bizzaro world I would get a new GT over the GT500. Even though the GT500 looks mean as hell, I would rather go for the sleeper look and build my own fast car. Hell, that's half the fun of racing.

I think the Shelby is awesome. Looks great, performs at a great level. Wish it was something I could afford. Congrats on your dads purchase...!

It's really an awesome car. It sounds mean as hell stock too lol. I'm not one for colors but I think the Grabber Blue looks good. He was never really a mustang guy and i told him about the ZL1 but he doesn't like the camaro that much. It rained here so it will be in the garage but ill try to take some pictures.
