Just my opinion: The Z and the Mustang (in any configuration) are two completely different vehicles. The Z is a nible, corner-loving sports coupe, whereas the Mustang is a true muscle car for red light drag racing. The Mustang feels heavier (it is!) and bulkier (it is!). I love the look and the handling of the Z over the Mustang (although I have not tried to learn the limits of the Mustang), but the sheer power - and the sound that comes with it, of the GT500 gives me a hard-on, especially combined with the drop-top. Both are great cars - and it's okay to like both, as I do! For me, cars are just like women - they are great to look at, great to play with, each one is different than the other, one might be beter than the other, but I like 'em all.
I did hear the Mustang might be over 600 HP next year (to combat the new Z28, I guess), but I'm sure the HP will keep creeping up year over year, but I'm not waiting for what might come in the future...
