Wow 650hp Stang is impressive! I have to say that will be tough tough tough to beat. Over 200MPH is also going to be a tough one to outdo. I will say this and most of my car friends would agree that the Camaro is a better looking car outside and inside. I wouldn't solely buy a car based on engine specs but 650hp is 100hp more than the Camaro so that would be tough to pick between looks or 100 extra hp.

All of the Shelbys since the '67 GT350 have been bloated. I do like the Camaro better than the GT500, but I like the Boss 302 or the normal GT better than either the Camaro or the Shelby. I like the Ford engines with more sophisticated valve actuation for one thing. Is the Shelby an Aluminum block?

Yep, aluminum block...Me too..thinking the Boss 302 has better overall balance.

But...posted the video for it's humor...laughed all the way through.
