If you wanted to turn into solely a weekend racer such as your vette, you could shed plenty of weight to make it more formidable. I just think it's interesting a see a MUSTANG make the vettebros sweat a little.

It's making them sweat because they know at a stoplight they're going to have a problem.

But then the fall back will always be "oh, we can race our vettes on the track."

The Corvette guys are gonna get their feeling hurt at the stoplights. It would easier just to acknowledge that Ford has put out a bad ass car instead of falling back on the track/ real sports car defense.

I like them both, if I had the money I'd have both. The Mustang would definitely make a better dd than a Corvette. I probably wouldn't have the Corvette if I could only have one car and had to drive it full time. Then again, maybe I would if it had seats like the new Mustang.
