Who cares what car he picked. I don't need to have someone tell me what the car feels like as an subjective opinion. I can go test drive both of these cars and drive aggressively enough to see which I like the feel of.

It's about the times, numbers and mathematical performance. That is the only actual objective information. Every one in these forums already likes the look and feel of the cars we picked in the first place. That division is like picking girlfriends/ wives and clothing or houses. No one ever agrees on what they like or are truly attracted to.

I think the ZL1 is an amazing car. I think it is a masterpiece of design and modern engineering, for sure. But if we are talking about Muscle/performance cars, it's first and foremost about acceleration, handling hard, and braking, and finally about fastest times.

I already own an Acura RL for extreme comfort with decent handling. My Mustang is for fast acceleration, hard controlled cornering and fast breaking if needed. My Mustang can go many more mph on a long curved freeway entrance or exit ramps and maintain control and grip far beyond what average cars can because I modified it to do so. It accelerated much faster than most cars because that's what I modified it to do. These new cars don't have to be modified, much, that's why the reported numbers and stats are so important.

Both of these performance cars are so much more comfortable to drive than anything out 10 or 12 years ago it's ridiculous. Erik
