The 707hp Challenger at $64K is the best bargain. The Z06 is the best all around performance supercar.
Criteria must include:
1: price
2: hp
3: 0-60, 1/4 mile
4: top speed
5: lateral G
6: track time at some standard track VIR ?

For once the C7 Z06 is compared to a $90,000 911 and not one costing over $200,000!

Someone needs to do a list of HP and TQ to weight ratio of all these... that is where the real story is

There is not a performance comparable value for the dollar but performance isn't the whole story. Let's add in the five year warranty, ability to choose auto or standard, coupe or convertible, Z06 or Z07, along with style and interior comfort which has never before been seen in this car. I believe it is also the only sub 100k car to speak to and have validated 0-60 in under 3 seconds and the quarter in under 11 seconds.
There is no comparable available anywhere for the complete package. GM right now is enjoying massive sales as there is no competition for the Z.

Frankly, the only two on that list that has similar power are the two dodges. The viper is impossible to life with on a daily basis and the hellcat is a one trick pony...pardon the pun.
