I have a 2020 GT350 Signature Edition.. add a supercharger, like the Camaro and it's an even match.

There is a guy who drove the Nurburgring in 7:15, which is faster than a few cars here.

It's the truest drivers car. Sure it's not as fast as some on this list but for the dollar, it's a heck of a car.

Really? Just really... all that for one extra little km/h in standing kilometer trap speed... 2.3 second improvement for 1 km/h. Hahaha.

I being looking around and the 350R is way more expensive than Zl1.
Hostboy said you can get a base Zl1 for the price of the 350R but here in Miami I see you can almost (if not get a fully loaded) Zl1 for the price of a 350R. More people I believe still rather have the 350R like TheMeenoBuffalo said.

I think the 350r is losing more because it has almost 150 hp less, but then again the new refresh 350r came out which should improve times.

True, the Camaro is even cheaper than the Shelby. Better performance and good on the wallet... However any of these two cars would be lovely to have.

I find it funny, but not surprising that the ss 1le beats the zl1 1le around the motortrend figure 8. This generation camaro has a lot of grip and because the ss 1le is so light it can pull off a fabulous figure 8 lap time

Even though the zl1 literally beats the Shelby everywhere, I'd take the Shelby because the Shelby has something that the zl1 will never have. An 8200 rpm v8 with an absolutely ludicrously INSANE exhaust note. THe zl1 exhaust is pretty good but the Shelby is honestly arguably the best exhaust note in the world. It's SOOO GOOD

Nice the zl1 is no joke. beats the gt350r in everything.
