i herd that it is goin to be IMPOSSIBLE to get the new gt500 when they come out
should i just go ahead and get saleen??

PLZ HELP


NOT GETTIN z06
You might want to consider the Saleen just from the cost perspective. The '07 Shelby is going to be a top dollar item, while there are a number of '05 Saleen's still on the lots. Once the '06s hit the lots in big numbers you may be able to get a much better deal on an '05 Saleen.

Dude is going to be hard but just imagine if you can land one of those gt500's. That'd be so sweet. [sm=happy046.gif]

You're a tool. What all do you have done to this camaro of yours to make a 500+ hp GT500 slow? I guarentee a Saleen Extreme, and probably the GT500 too, with about 2k in mods would stand up to your camaro. What kind of mods do you have? Engine size? Track numbers? Don't talk **** because you have a big bad GM. [:@]

LS7 > GT500

It has more power, and is lighter...it's a no brainer, and you're gay.

GM > Ford
GM> Ford.........

do i really have to go into this.....

its a pro street....it does one thing....go down the 1/4

it has blown 427 with spray (b4 spray and superchager i was dynoed at 650rwhp) I run extremely low boost and only a 100 shot bc i love my camaro and i dont want it to die..... but if i change the jets n raised the bost.........

now 500hp??? i herd gt500 is 450 (C&D)


and lets think about this....

built caamro for under 20g
saleen SC is 50g and its only 400hp (claimed)

now i want a stang bc i need something to drive other than my f-250 and the camaro is "street legal" but with no heat, ac, or any chance of making turns its kinda hard
can not get vette (rather have vette than stang)

If you are looking for a daily driver, why not consider a V6 Mustang? With a XCAL2 or similar tune, they are quite fun to drive and get reasonable gas mileage. Not to mention they would cost way less then either the Saleen or Shelby.

BTW, I owned a 67 Camaro in a previous life. Great car, lots of fun
