I agree that it would be great for the Z to compare to the GT - and really in everything but power it does very well. The Mustang has quite a bit more horsepower, and doesn't weigh that much more, relatively.
So, while the Mustang does corner well and puts down great track times, no doubt about that, with a similar power to weight ratio the Z is right with it, and IMO in a much more enjoyable-to-drive package.
