The 500KR is 80k, and only runs 12.8 @ 114?? No wonder why the Z06 murders it! [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIPBP-9TUnQ](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIPBP-9TUnQ) ---

i disagree with them being apples to oranges. they’re a bit different in that the vette is an independent rear n/a car and the kr is a solid rear forced induction car. But one was built by chevy and the other by ford, to do the same purpouse. Compete with the other!!! ---

If you run a 12.8 in a KR, kill yourself immediatly. You cant drive, and should be shot in the face. That along with the twoc ars being entirely different market groups, one is a lightweight 2 seater sports car while the other is a 4seater pony car. Why not compare the Ford GT to the Vette instead, a little more on point imo. ---

The Mustang is supposed to be a Camaro beater, not a Corvette beater. For the price Id rather have the Z06. I cant justify paying $80k+ for a Mustang. ---

I cant justify paying $80k+ for a Mustang. People that paid 80K for a KR are retarded. You now get a better package than the KR in the current GT500 for ~50K. ---

Most people that bought a KR arent even going to drive them. Theyll sit around in a garage because the owners think theyre going to be worth more eventually, just like the guy with the Mach 1 with 30 miles on it selling for less than it was new on NY Mustangs (link there). ---

Edmunds drivers are awful. I remember when they road tested the Cobalt SS S/C in 05 and ran 15’s in it. ---

camaro is a closer comparison to the mustang, too bad ford doesnt have a more competatively priced ford gt to compete with the vette. they wanted it to be exclusive though i guess. ---
