I just don't get why so many people try to compare the two. No matter what you do the 5.0 will always be a step ahead. It's faster stock and it's faster modded. Even when turns are involved. No point in the "well, if you've got this and he's got this" game because it doesn't effing matter.

Don't worry about being faster than the next guy and instead drive what makes you happy. You'll be amazed at how much nicer everything is when you don't give a sh*t about how you stack up.

I'd beg to differ. Z has much lighter chassis and its a smaller car. It's always going to be faster car all around with right mods. Your argument holds for straight line acceleration and bolt on mods. That's about it. ....5.0 Faster in turns lol!

We don't have to succumb to everything is great soma to know 5.0 is a piece with a big gas slurpn motor.
