I think if I were looking for a car to cruise around in I'd go with more refined ZL1. It's performance isn't all that far off from the outdated but more powerful Mustang. I sat in Mustang and agree ergonomics aren't the best. I think the GT500 is going to retain resale better however so it would be a toss up. I'm not one for the ford verses chevy debates that's for fanboys on either side of Mustang or Camaro ownership. Both cars are pretty neat for what they are. If I lived in the middle of the country with lots of smooth flat roads Mustang would be a possible choice but where I live and drive I have to have a car with real rear suspension. My daily drive is filled with bumpy twisty roads. Solid axle isn't going to cut it for me unfortunately.
