The Shelby GT500 is the most powerful machine among all of these while the only non-muscle here, the Nissan 370Z NISMO is the least powerful. The fact that the Camaro is as fast as the most powerful Shebly makes it impressive while the least powerful Nissan is the slowest.

This is not where the Chevy Camaro ZL1 excels. The Camaro ZL1 puts out a fuel economy of 14 mpg in the city, 19 on the highway, and a combined efficiency of 16 mpg.
