A lot of people think the Ford
Mustang and
Chevy Camaro duel has been the most exciting rivalry in the history of cars. Others think of it as the automotive equivalent of a People magazine cover story on Jessica Simpson — it’s a worn-out story, but you give it a look anyway.
By now you know that GM no longer makes Camaros, so our ritual is in limbo. (The Camaro’s obvious stand-in, the Aussie-born
Pontiac GTO, is about to join the Oldsmobile lineup on the discontinued heap.) But
Ford has not called it quits in the muscle-car department and has in fact produced the 2007 Shelby GT500, which is not only the most powerful Mustang ever made — 500 horsepower — but also the most expensive at $41,950, including destination. So without a Camaro, the Corvette, which lists at $44,490 and comes packed with 400 horsepower, becomes the obvious crosstown challenger.

Sad, sad sad.....I remember when people talked about the GT500 before it came out, how it was going to trump the Z06. There was a better contest with the Charger SRT8 then the C6.
