Ok cool thank you. Yea I really like the terminator but finding one that has not been thrashed is highly unlikely. Personally I love the way the camaro a look and love the LS platform plus I had a gto before so used to owning boats on wheels lol. But I also really like the mustang wish I could get a gt500 but the gt's are really nice. I am looking for a daily driver where I can put down 500hp without spending a ton In mods

As much as I love termi's. I don't see any reason to buy one over a new 5.0 unless you get a STUPID deal on one. Like 10k or less with reasonable miles. Still a fox chassis, which is old shit, the S197 chassis is better in every way.

The new 5.0s are exceptional. Heck the V6s make a helluva good DD for most people.

I almost bought a V6 before I bought the truck.

The reason I am leaning toward the Camaro SS right now is because I like the looks of it and the LS powerplant. I have owned a few fox body 5.0s and I have owned an 04 GTO and I loved the GTO's handling and comfort. From what I have read the Camaro is very comfortable but horrible vision.

Instead of reading, go rent one, I drove that fucking POS for 3 weeks and was excited at first, after about a week I fucking hated that car.

Anyone know anything about the 2012 GT500's? I know about the 13's but not really the 12's? My buddy just offered to sell me his cause he just bought a new C7.

2012 have the old 5.4L iron block. 540 Hp vice 660 and it's 175 LBM heavier in the engine alone. It's still a beast though. Whipple or Kenne Bell upgrade and some fuel makes that thing a 10 second car. That motor is based off the Ford GT motor. I've heard the bottom end is good for 1K hp stock.

Actually the '12 has an all alum. motor that is 102 lbs lighter then the iron block and puts out 550hp I have driven many of them and even sold a few over seas they were much improved over the previous ones and with a good custom tune should be able to do 600hp with the stock SC
