12.1 sec @ 118.8 mph. I think this is now a tad faster than a Gen 6 Camaro SS. Not by much of course. It's actually solidly in GT350 speed range which is interesting. It sounds good. Braking was decent. And now for the problems.

They also spent time saying how fast the 10A is, and how easy it is to drive (obviously). Then they later spend time saying how it isn't as engaging and doesn't feel fully integrated. Like two different people wrote the article.He did, however, take issue with the steering, saying, “The steering’s linearity leaves everything to be desired, and I couldn’t predict a steering correction to stop it.”
Oh yeah, and this:That said, the transmission has its issues. Presumably in pursuit of better fuel economy, “It keeps the engine out of its powerband, and that’s exactly what you don’t want in a high-revving V-8,” said associate online editor Stefan Ogbac. “It’s quick, but this isn’t an ideal transmission for this type of engine.”
Maybe they are in a competition with GM over who can charge the most for a pony car.Did you know you can get a $47,000 Ford Mustang GT with cloth seats? In fact, if you keep adding options (including a $229 illuminated Mustang badge), you can get the price of a cloth-upholstered pony car up to nearly $50,000.
