Z06 Vs. Shelby GT500
Vette - There is no question here.
It's a race car with working blinkers, AC, etc.
The 'stang is a steet car with a big motor.
But like previously said - they are both sweet.

I'll take the GT500 and dump the money that I saved on it into the car to destroy the Z06. Stock for stock, the Z06 will eat it's ***, no doubting that. I saw someone mention the ZR1, they are already going for a little over $200,000 ... It's in a little different league. Regardless, I'd take the Ford GT over it, with the money that I saved I'd dump it into the motor. Take it to Stage 6 and have twin turbos put on it. 1400+ rwhp / 1200+ rwtq.

I would take a v6 mustang over any new vette I have always hated the looks of the vette and after 20 years+of only slight body upgrades it is as stale and unexciting as a minivan ok it goes fast so what there are plenty of cars that go very fast that I would prefer over the vette including the Nissan gtr any upgrade mustang or for that matter

as a ford guy, id take the vette...why you may ask? because everybody mods the mustang to look like a gt500. you see them everywhere. its not a head turner. there isnt thousands of V6 vettes running around either like the mustang. if the gt500 was a totally different car then the other mustangs and actually had a unique look, id consider it. plus the z06 out performes it. seems like a no brainer to me.
They did a comparison in one of the auto mags last year comparing the regular vette (405 hp) vs the 500 hp shelby. The vette won over all. So the Z06 will destroy it. The stang is just too heavy.

Reading it... They say the gt 500 does the 1/4 in 12.9 that is what my lightning does on a hot weather day at 4900 lbs. There was a gt 500 at the track two friday nights ago,I know the tuner he tuned it with a pully giving it 80 more hp and 13 mph more on the 1/4 mile. It was runninmg 11.3- all evening with a stick. It was so hot the baromatic preasure was equal to 1,800 feet elevation. Everyone was running at least 1/2 second below average. so that writer says it was 12.9 with a stick.... poor driver?
