After my hellcat was stolen, I had a tight budget for another v8 muscle/sports car I started looking into chevy/Cadillac. I was stuck between the 09-13 cts-v and 10-13 Camaro SS. After a few weeks of looking around, I found a red 2013 camaro 2SS 1LE. Took it for a test drive and fell in love with the car. I paid 26k in total for the car, a little bit higher than average but that's Illinois for you

NO doubt, C6 Corvette ! Don't know why so many people knock the interior of these, not bad at all on 2-4 lt models. 430 hp in a 3, 000 lb. car makes it Very fast for a bone stock car ! 20-26 K for a Nice, Clean one w/mid 12 sec. 1/4 an 190 mph top end, what is NOT to like ? Only problem...? Very easy to loose tread on back tires ! :-) !

C5 Z06 for me. Easily the best performing car on this list in every category imaginable.

[SRTBOAT]

A great tidbit is the 6.1 hemi absolutely loves mods. Basic bolt ons and a custom tune lets them run with scat packs and the modern SS/5.0.

[jordanhill]

always had a soft spot for the GTO aka the Goat. Looking passed the interior, I weirdly love the looks of those things. It looks like so many different cars smashed together.
C5 Z06 is what i tell people is the "realistic dream car" lol

[WolfiiHD]

I love my Second gen coupe. Best car I’ve ever owned. The 556 stock hp was fun but I got use to it quick. It’s not sitting at 950 wheel hp and 1150 on nitrous.

The CTS-V is such a sick car, plus I've seen quite a few for right around $10, 000. I have a 3.6l CTS. It smoked my buddies v6 mustang and for a v6, drifts like a dream

Bought my ‘86 Pontiac Firebird with a 350 and a 5 speed for $8200 at 19 years old (one year ago), near mint condition. Could not be happier.

I love the CTS-V's and the GTO's, if you could find them cheap the G8 is also one of my favorites

[srtmetal]

Honorable mention Challenger RT. With the track pack option and manual they have a posi rear and 3.92 gears. This makes them actually quick with 410 foot pounds of torque that rivals most on this list. 376hp tho so a bit shy of 400.

[agentwade]

The cylinder deactivation on ANY v8 is not a benefit. Nothing but issues

[alexcurtis]

Prices are about spot on, I'm in WA and I got my SRT8 Challenger (6speed manual) for 18k with a few mods already regrets and since Hellcats are a thing now, people actually underestimate the hell out of these now and think they're slow😂

[shawnhasty]

What a great video, pretty entertaining thank you. My favorite of course is what I own, the 2013 Mustang GT my upgrades have managed to give me 520HP over the 420 stock, thank you American Muscle and Brenspeed

[saltyraidersfan]

Honorable mention :
2017-20 Lincoln MKZ 3.0 t AWD .
400hp/400TQ
4191Lbs
6spd auto
0-60 5.1seconds.
1/4 mile 13.3 @104 mph

Glad to see the GTO on the list. My dad had an 05, FBO/ big cam and long tube headers. Made roughly 580 wheel on a bad day. It was fun growing up and learning how to drive in it.

[imswiredm]

I’m glad the 03-04 cobra was in but their advertised hp vs how they actually performed were different they make over 400 crank stock and they’re capable of 900 on stock block

[kirkmac]

Just got a 2010 2ss, unbelievable power and sounds like a T-rex. In love.

[Carguylogan]

My 01 Z06 made 352 whp SAE completely stock. A lot of other 01s do as well, and plenty of 02-04 Z06s dyno 330. All 4 years are basically a crap shoot. If you are including the Terminator the 01 Z06 should definitely be on there, it took my friend's terminator an intake, pulley, X pipe and tune at 437 whp to keep up with my stock 01 Z06.

And the Infinity Q50 and Q60 are both 400 HP and cost aroiund $50, 000 in 2016. Twin Turbos and fun to drive. Best sleeper going. Great styling.
