Ford's GT500 packs a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 engine with 305 horsepower and 208 pound feet of torque. The SS also has a V8, but this one's even bigger: a 6.2-liter, 426-horsepower engine. Both cars have standard 6-speed manual transmissions.

Pretty sure those are the stats on the 2011 V6 engine actually per the ads on TV. I'm thinking that's a typo.

Yeah, but the torque has to be off for the v6. The media is funny! Maybe Obama is trying to sell Camero's! :rolf

208? lol. What is it a high revving 4 cylinder these days?

That article is just all kinds of bad.

Tons and tons of cars are missing. Many of which are less money than those posted.

I think both the v6 maro, and v6 mustang can do sub 6 second 0-60 times. Essentially everything in the sport compact class is missing: Evo, WRX (all forms), MS3, MS6, CSRT-4, Cobalt SS, HHR SS?. And that's just off the top of my head.

Then I think even some of the more sporty sedans may even be able to go under 6 seconds these days. Ford SHO, Maxima maybe?. Had Pontiac still been around the G8 would do it.
