you cant compare a z06 to a mustang or new camaro. The Z is much more advanced and expensive.

ya i know i was just saying the new camaros and mustangs are heavy for a plastic car.

 

[lancec2c30]

Its the physcial size of them.

For example, if you park a new edge style mustang next to a S-197. The new S-197 looks huge.

 

[philbar71]

the mustangs are huge any ways and boxy.

 

[lancec2c30]

And 4th gen Camaros look like a catfish. lol I'd rather drive a mustang over a catfish.

 

[philbar71]

meh cant really compare looks of cars, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. but you can compare the performance numbers, we'll see who wins that round

 

[lancec2c30]

Okay, a vette goes from dealership to an old man 90% of the time. A mustang, about 15% of the time.

 

[philbar71]

that's cause young peeeps cant afford insurance on them i know i cant. my dad aint old he's 42 or something like that.

 

[lancec2c30]

That's true, but I have seen cases when a Terminator cobra was more expensive to ensure then a z06. You can thank the old man drivers for that. haha. Because when the insurance company takes the statistics on the vehicle, the age group and type of people that own them effects rates. That and collioson rate.

Mustang drivers will defend their mustang till the day they die. Any vehicle that is compared to it that is better is considered "not a fair comparison".

Meh. Respect a car for what it is. Muscle days are long gone. If a good old carb engine can make those old cast iron bodies move like they did, without struggle, I consider that muscle. Muscle is not going fast. Muscle is muscle.
