Call me crazy, but I would not spend $66k for something that looks marginally different than its $25k counterpart.

For that kind of money you are in M3/Z06/used gtr territory, all of which I would rather have over a $70k mustang. Regardless of performance.

There is no way the new GT500 is in the Z06's league. When I was considering one, the only GT500's that were in Z06 territory were pushing 650+ at the tires, and had over $15K in suspension and tires--to turn stock Z06 times at the track.
