Thanks for sharing G, and for any doubters, G has the connections to Chevy, so it's legit.

these last 2 days. I guess fanboy wars apply to cars as well as game consoles and cell phones heh.

Anyway...where did this Al O. (who is he btw) post this letter? Thanks

PAUL SS · 11-16-2011, 04:01 PM

I like the way Al thinks.

THIS!!

it's not like this is the first ever 650hp Mustang. It's all about how you hook it up when you start to get into these power numbers, and really you can't deny that the ZL1 will have the more advanced suspension.

I'm not hating on the GT, in fact I think it will be an unreal car and would love to own one. But ... facts are facts

Thanks guys

Its nice to see Chevy knows they have to fight and not just get out of the way like Dodge!

For everyone out there saying Mustang can't put the power to the road, well we will have to wait and see? Right now Ford just drafted the number one QB and they are on fire! Everywhere you look 2013 Mustang is trending, from yahoo to aol. Now that QB might turn out to be a Ryan Leaf or he might turn out to be Payton Manning? One thing Chevy can't do is stand back and say our car looks better or I am happy the way it is. Why because unlike the Mustang the Camaro was killed off. We know Ford Fan-Boys will stick by their car now GM guys have to prove that.
