ORIGINAL: C6 VETTE

I think you guys would say Vettes since Stangers like beating a car thats twice as much and like seeing the look on the persons face like "how did this happen" . Need to have a good amount of mods though.

Since Camaros have been non-existant on assembly lines lately and the GTO is a rare site (low volume of sales) it seems you hear of Mustang/Corvette encounters more often these days than it used to be.

On more of a level playing field I would wager a guess would be:

350Z's
Chargers's (specificly RT's)
GTO's (when you can find one)
STI's / Evo's (might need minor mods to run with them)

This is all assuming you are referring to a S197
Can you get an S197 to run 12.5's with bolt on's? Say a CAI, full exhaust (including headers), gears, stickies and a tune? If so, then I would agree with you. But I am not sure. I think you might need FI to run with a 'Vette.

If I bought a new Mustang, I'd have it supercharged within the year and the Corvette is the car I would want to line up against. A Vortech on a 3V puts down a crapload of power.

I am not sure about the SRT-4, but an EVO or an STI with a competent driver is going to put a decent hurting on you, especially from a dig.

Camaros, WS6's and SRT8's.
dodge can suck it... i have respect for camaros and ws6's, but the new line of "muscle" from dodge is a joke.

who wants a oversized, 4 door, auto only, luxary car... for a muscle car. ROFL, i forgot it has a sudo "hemi" in it...
HA HA i'm with you... i raced a charger daytona, with some old guy driving and i won not by much but i did, after that i was next to him in a light and i asked him "that thing got a hemi?" he was pissed so he turned instead of going straight.

i think the big rivals are srt-4's, camaros and 350z's

Swapped hondas and 350zs. 350z owners have to be the most cocky uninformed people I have ever encountered.

I like to beat dumb kids with big mufflers. They deserve to be beaten. With a stick...
