I agree, let's see some evidence.

I guess I have one of those super duper SS's that runs in the 12's.

Let's see some evidence that YOUR SS ran 12s. Or perhaps YOU'RE already puffing too?

^^^^ he was joking, hes saying if a G37 runs low 13's his SS runs in the 12's
which does happen

My vote is on the G37 hands down- aside from price.

The G is alot more luxurious IMO

Are you SURE he can't speak for himself?

Either his SS runs 12s, or he shouldn't be posting it.

+1

Why do I keep getting images of a monkey and a football when I read this thread?

I ran a G37-S and if that's a low 13 second car my SS should run mid 12's. Obviously that's not the case. Some get sarcasm, some don't. Some times you feel like a nut, some times you don't.

Fastest G37 time I've found was Motor Trend's 13.5 @ 105mph.

We all know Camaro will do low 13s with an auto, or top of the 12s with a good stick driver.

stock, never more than 300 rwhp

on 3.5 & 3.7's you need to be careful with boost.

a stock 3.7 liter engine, if tuned perfectly, will max out at 500/500

i had my g35 supercharged, then built the engine & had Greddy twin turbos installed

^^^ sick car dude....

[76z28]

stock camaros are capable to run 12s if you know how to drive and launch(ss)
the g37 looks pretty good in black or silver and sounds pretty good(dont put an exhaust on it please if you get one.. sounds like a garbage disposal)

Stang, you must have a super duper SS because those are pretty much the same times your SS will run.

I never said it didn't have any power. If you were to have read my post you would have noticed I said that "I didn't feel the power that I do in my SS." The power I'm speaking of would be the difference in the G37's 270lbs-ft of torque compared to the SS's 410. I made no mention of 1/4 mile times and never said that I had a super duper SS that could run faster times. You're still reeling from your buyers remorse over buying the V-6 rather than the SS and losing 3K by getting rid of a car you only test drove for 5 minutes.

You mean 500HP / 500lbft with forced induction correct? I'd like to see a dyno tune only make a couple HUNDRED HP.
