Something like this would do that for you but I am guessing you are only looking at new cars.

You can't really go wrong with the Camaro or GT500 because they are both great platforms.

There is only one of the 3 cars listed that can make over 700 rwhp without touching a valve cover. $6k and 3 hours to swap over to a Mammoth KB is pretty hard to beat. Seems pretty obvious to me that the Shelby is gonna go much faster, dollar for dollar than the others.

The GT500 is the easiest and cheapest to Mod for straight line performance. I would want the 2010 GT500.

Isn't the Z28 coming out with the LS9 (ZR1, CTS-V) engine with around 540-550 HP?

The ZR1 is the only car with the LS9, the Camaro Z28 if it ever comes out and the CTS-V both have the 556 hp LSA engine.
