The plus side is that the aftermarket for those engines is enormous, making it cheap to up the power a lot. In terms of dollars spent to reach a given time in the 1/4 mile, go with the Chevy over the Z. But it will never have the finesse and handling the Z does.

The Mustang has actually gotten better.
With the track pack I think it does about a 70mph slalom and .94Gs. And having driven one there is a lot of body roll, so with a suspension kit it will be niiice.
I am still mulling over trading the Z in on one!!!
