It's from Road and Track. That quarter mile is a little on the slower side but it's going to be close.
The V8 models they tested did 70-100 in 5.0, 4.3, 4.6 and 3.8 (depending on trim)...
2010 4.6 Mustang GT, sure. But, 1st gen Coyote, 2011 Mustang GT vs 2010 Camaro SS...the Mustang didn't get it's ass kicked. They were very close. Camaro was over 200lbs heavier...

Main reason I never seriously looked at one
You can run a drag radial until it's bald. Assuming the tire is otherwise fine...

Interesting....hopefully they can keep it as light or lighter than the 6th generation Camaro
Will it get the new 6.7 V8? Will they hobble it with a DI system that doesn't have PI alongside of it? Will they put a decent piston in it?
I'm not a huge fan of what they end up doing to most of their cars on that channel exhaust-wise. They're obsessed with those dumb megaphones for some reason.
