Actually it is a Z06 and they haven't shown how the Mustang did yet. Can't imagine they would show this if they LOST!

Well wait to you see results from the 2013 Ford Mustang Shelby GT 500 with a 5.8 liter V-8 having 650 hp and guaranteeing 0-60 mph in 4 seconds and a top speed of over 200 mph!

not arguing the overall effort(s) being made here...I understand the "rationale."
but more equal comparisons on the same "test track" would be for cars having similar power-to-weight ratios etc.
just sayin'...

Don't forget to mention that:
A) different drivers in all the cars, with different experience level
B) z06 was 4mph faster
Wish they had use one driver to test all of them, then we would have a mean to compare but they said 12 flat and 3.7 0-60 for the gt350...

Enjoyed the show and agree that the old and new linkage was neatly done.
However, the track comparison was artificial and hokey, but it's all about advertising, so what add isn't?
