OK, I will bite. One is built by Ford, one is built by Chevrolet. One has 662 Hp, one has 505 HP. One is a Corvette, the other a Mustang. Other than that, don't have any thoughts. I guess it depends on what you want, a Corvette or a Mustang, sorry.


Honest opinion.

The new Shelby is an impressive car, with great potential. I personally would love to run one.

I'd never buy a Z06. They are slow and drop valves all the time I hear.

Compete? 11.6 at 125.7 vs 12.1 at 116 Not even in the same ball field!

If you want to believe the GT500 was meant to be a corvette killer than back at you.
