And the Miata is far more of a niche car and sells at much lower volume. To go up in cylinder count would mean a totally new car, a far cry difference from how the D3 cars can be optioned. It is just a silly comparison to make. Also, given recent sales numbers, the price increase on these cars is not really hurting them (save for the Camaro to an extent). It's just not an apples to apples comparison IMO.

The fact that you keep trying to compare this to a Miata, shows that you really don't get it. Two completely different cars and missions. The same can said about 99% of the cars out there. This is not unique to the Camaro or Mustang.

They are not losing the bang for the buck argument when you realize what it competes against. You clearly do not get that while you continue to beat this dead horse about price.

Just seeing the words "Corvette" and "CUV" in the same sentence is enough to make one vomit.
-
Fallacy argument as the Z06 (as well the last gen. ZR1) are $100K and GM had no problem selling them. A mid engine will not change that.

No. Because the Cadillac fans have a LT4 in the CTSV. Not only that.. The ATS-V is a car in and of itself. For your constant instigating questions I pose this.. f@#kin C63AMG or M3 fans have an issue that the ZL1 will have 200 more Hp than they?But it's in a Chevy not a Cadillac is what he's getting at. Cadillac should be number 1 then Chevy number 2 not vise versa. I also doubt C63 or M4 fans care about anything Chevy because most likely their head is too far up their ass or nose too high in the air to notice. Then you're both missing the point. The ATS-V still has the luxury quotient that the Camaro will never have and a more usable cabin. That is what most Caddy buyers are concerned with and I don't think any of them are complaining about the performance of them unless someone here can show evidence to the contrary. SMK is, yet again, trying to create a negative scenario that only he is concerned about and only brings up because it's not a Benz we are talking about.

The 2015 Z/28 and ZL1 have virtually identical 0-60 and 1/4 miles times and trap speeds (per road and track on both cars) so I'm not sure how a ZL1, which is heavier than the Z btw, would hand the Z it's breakfast anywhere, much less the track. The only real advantage, other than HP, of ZL1 is it much better riding on normal roads and easier to drive but that's about it.

Not picking a side on the comparo argument but what exactly makes one publication an "expert" over another?

Sales: Sales Figure Ticker: July 2016
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in 2016 Sales Archive
Exactly the point of my post and I'm sorry for contributing that narrow BS by doing that. I'm man enough to admit it. -
If the numbers are true, then the GT350R may have a short reign as top pony car. It is a comparo I certainly want to see regardless.

Sales: Sales Figure Ticker: July 2016

GM full size trucks-76,000 Ford F series-64,000 Big yikes! I would still take the Challenger over the other two any day of the week. -
Agreed about the Malibu. I have been seeing those everywhere around Phoenix. Wondering why such a bug drop in one month (aside from the fact that Chevy was fire selling them at this time last year). The Camaro is still taking a beating though without a real explanation.

Oh I know where you were going with it. No worries. Anything that gets a little eye candy on here is a bonus as well.

If Bong, Surreal and Mr. Fordcosworth somehow look like this: Then I wont mind any further Mustang versus Camaro pillow fights. Ill let my fantasies run wild. But Sadly...THIS is the reality of these Mustang versus Camaro Pillow Fights... I merely gave the facts. No drama on my part and no skin off my back if some here have a problem with the facts.

Jesus yourself. Pay attention to what is actually being said. This was about cars equipped with MRC and the 2SS is the cheapest one out there with that.

Yes. Tomorrow, tomorrow...Like the ZL1 and 1LE And unlike the SS, the MR will be standard and not an option. On a near $50K car, it damn well better be standard. As it stands, you can get MRC cheaper on a 2SS than you will be able to get on the 2017 GT350. Yes the MR should be standard equipment on 50k + cars like the GT350 and Corvette. Nice to Ford rectify this. Of course Chevy gives it to you for $42K on the 2SS package.

Lackluster U.S., China Sales Impact Ford Motor Profit
surreal1272 replied to El Kabong's topic in Industry News
Reduce the dependence on fleet/rentals and profits will pick up. Again, these are the exact same things that some stockholders here criticized GM for just a few years ago. They may forget that fact but it doesn't change it from being a fact. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, they have convenient excuses that they sure as hell did not offer GM during those years. -

Well these were the same group of folks who derided GM for doing the exact same thing just a few years ago. The silence, now that the tables have turned, will be deafening. -
