It is, if that's your only basis for comparison.

But the Z is not about just horsepower, as some of its competitors seem to be. The Z's major advantage is superior handling and lighter weight. Less horsepower than most of the other "sports cars" in this price segment, but you know that the power it does have is still going to be usable when the road stops going straight.

The Camaro is a good competitor though, as I've said before. I think it's probably the best competitor to the Z among all these cars. I still think it's a Z for me, because I'd rather have handling than just pure power, but YMMV.
