400hp. The Z not competing against a mustang is somewhat right and somewhat wrong. The right part is the Z pricing compared to a mustang GT, there is a value issue. But is adding 400hp to the Z the end all be all of competition with the muscle brand???
I think the Z can keep a 100hp deficit, IF they can refine the motor, improve the transmissions, lose the weight,improve suspension and other tech points necessary to make the Z more agile and faster.
While in some ways, the Z has to be more comparable in performance to the muscle cars, to a point. It bothers me that writers exclaim that the Z needs to be a muscle car. It does not!!!!
