True, but I just thought it was interesting that THIS Mustang pushing only 315 hp is pretty much running neck and neck with a Cobra @ 390hp SC.

^Thats what I was thinking.....I personally think the camaro should have been number one...I mean the only the thing the mustang beat the camaro on was the skidpad.....it was even more expensive so wtf with their decision.

Color me surprised. I'm with you on that.. Although I love Mustangs, that Camaro sure puts up some nice numbers!
