I was a die hard Z28 man and still am in some ways. Hammer has it right. Look at the costs of the F-bodies and look at what you can do with the same cash to a same year stang. Look at the cost of aftermarket products for the F-Bodies. With only 30 thousand f-bodies a year produced not many companies want to invest in parts for a small market. The mustangs ride better, last longer and are better put together. Faster out of the box is relitive, for instance: 02 Z base model I looked at new was 30K with 300Hp or so, 02 GT loaded was around 27K with 260 hp or so. With the extra 3K I could slap a supercharger on and have over 350 hp easy. You get the point? the F-bodies came with more hp but at a much higher price and less quality. Part of the alure of having a sports car is doing the Mods to it. How many F-bodies do you see with body kits, exhaust mods etc..? If you do they have MAJOR money invested.

Just my 2 cents

Former: 69 Z, 71Z, (3) 78Z's, 80Z, 91Z owner ( all rattle traps)
