both companies made cars that are fantastic, both companies came out with cars that most of there owners can't control. a few tenths here and there are irrelevant.
while i agree with most of your post, the difference in power and acceleration between the ZL1 and GT500 is like an old LT1 camaro vs a 5th gen camaro (almost 10mph trap speed difference)
