well, I would go for the svt, but just one thing i wana say: when comparing the cars, u can't just look at max power and weight. You need to take in consideration where each car gets its power. While the max power is the same, one car might reach the max at a lower rpm, or hold it longer, and have a longer and higher total power band. Anyways, i would go for the svt, but i bought the svt for more than just speed, i bought for for the hand tunning, etc, this car drives a heck lof a lot better than some cars a lot more $$$
