Nice answer after the Z06/ZR1 have been smoking the special Mustangs for a few years. Gotta love the domestic HP wars while the imports worry about stupid shit like gas mileage 🙂 ---

Gotta love the domestic HP wars while the imports worry about stupid shit like gas mileage 🙂 As awesome as the '13 GT500 is, it’s still apples and oranges my friend. Ford still needs an actual sports car. ---

Love the performance for the money but I doubt I will ever own one. Probably for the same reason I saved up my pennies and bought the V rather than a ZL1. When it came down to it, it was still a Camaro. I was looking for something with more fit, finish and comfort. Amazing car and I would love to drive it but don’t know that I would want to drive it daily. But I am probably the minority on here since guys drive stripped out civics with no AC to save hundreds in the quarter. ---
