I'll never understand how .90g in cornering is considered poor...

No PP and no Magneride, no care.
Pretty comparable overall it looks like. That visibility in the Camaro though. Ouch. That would be a dealbreaker for me.

A little slow for both cars.
But the 0-60 does reflect the different power curves.

So from my experience the worst part of the non-PP GT was the tires. In this video it looks like a GT premium so that means its on the 255/40R19 A/S tires. My car came with the 235/50R18 A/S tires which were basically ice skates. I think that kind of gives the Mustang a bit of a disadvantage in grip compared to the 245/40R20 and 275/35R20 Summer tires the base SS comes with. I am curious how they would stack up with similar tires. I know I noticed a huge difference when I upgraded to wider stickier tires.

LOL 12.6? When you have to take drag racing lessons from ecobeast. And they still let you give opinions on cars. Braking I get. Camaro is at least 100 pounds lighter. It's a perfect way to test cars. Put two different dudes in different cars. Is anyone really gullible enough to believe a manual matches an auto? Besides the camaro6 guys?

Thats part of the problem with Ford. How many damn packages do you have to buy to get good tires. Or brakes? To get all the good stuff your looking at a 50 grand mustang. (Leather,mag ride,exhaust)Might as well spend another 5 grand and buy a Vette.

This time is the new official 1/4 mile time for the 2018. I knew that 11 second run was done in a mineshaft, downhill, and with a professional driver. Not to mention the non stock tire pressure.

No it didn’t. I have every motor trend and Car and Driver mag from that time period.
Motor trend had two 11’gt tests: 12.8@110(first test) and 12.7@ 111 (test against m3)
We all know both these cars run low-mid 12’s, the whole point here is they were run on the same day/track.
Car and Driver long term 16’ SS manual at 4.0 0-60, 12.4 @118, and 1.01 skidpad but you can’t compare because testing completed on a different day/track..

Camaro6 was right. They are just smarter than us. We were blinded by the venders paid by Ford to pump out fake times to boost sales. They knew it all along. Better owners, better car, Camaro.
