I have a friend with one. He babies that car, won't track it, won't auto-x, barely drives it for fear of scratching the paint. Nice car but if you can't drive it hard what is the point? I like the Z because I can beat the bag out of it and not feel bad about it.

Some people get off on having a garage queen they never drive.

The "dime a dozen" factor is exactly why I could never buy a Mustang. I did test drive the 5.0 and it is badass, but when all is said and done, I'd still rather have the Z.

I agree with this. The Z is a better, more exotic looking car and I don't see one on every street corner yet, unlike Mustangs.
