A C6 Corvette will do the quarter mile in the mid-high 12s. This 16,000 pound Volvo truck will do the quarter in the high 12s. I am impressed.

Yes, we know the Tesla Model S is faster than a BMW M5, we just didn't know how fast it really was. Here we see it facing off with the older Viper SRT10 and handily demolishing it.

Sometimes it's worth considering how much a model-year change really matters. An updated car can be draped in hype, but what's the substance? In many cases? Not much. In this case, it's a priceless 0.184 of a second.

The 2011 Ford Mustang V6 puts out 305 horsepower stock, making it a a true performance bargain. But is it tunable? Watch this 12-second V6 pony scream out "yes" in a warm-up burnout.
