While the 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT hasn’t changed all that much for the new model year, but the new Red Vapor special edition package brings about a sinister, sporty look for the new model year while all of the other attributes of the SRT Jeep make it the coolest SUV on the market today.
Those print publications who were the first to sample the 2015 Ford Mustang GT have published their results and while the figures that we are seeing across the internet vary by source, the quickest reported times thus far come from Motor Trend, where they hit 60 in just 4.4 seconds en route to a 12.8 quarter mile – making the 2015 model slower than a similarly equipped 2014 model.

The folks at Car & Driver have recently released the results for their 2014 Lightning Lap in the October issue and the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 turned in one of the most impressive times – beating the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a long list of very expensive, very respected sports cars from around the world.
