Video of the A8 vs M6 drag race: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66kcZYTncMg

You know what I just realized is unbelievable about this car: it does everything. Track, braking, drag strip. The Mustang GT and even the GT350s are not that good at the drag strip.

The A8 was a 2SS and was 111 lbs heavier than the 1SS M6. It was still faster in ET and only 0.35 mph slower.

Dyno: 405 rwp and 405 rw lb-ft. Stout. That was the manual.

Price: The 1SS was the cheapest way into an SS at $37k. The 2SS A8 car was $47k. At $37k, the 1SS is actually a good deal after learning how good the car is, imo.

Watch out Hellcat, and Mustang who?
That's what I was thinking.
