Only a fanboi would choose to pay $100K for peformance that is matched by a $74K car.

Randy chose the ZLE based on price, 'nuff said.
Randy said more than just price. The exact quote being.

It’s now official. Al O and the Camaro team owned gen6. They sent Ford back to the drawing board.

This Al O quote from the 2014, as they were deep into design of gen6, says it all. Accomplished!

You know we read every Internet buzz about Mustang, and I'm sure they read everything about ours and everybody benefits because we're both trying to beat each other up on a daily basis and the ponycar customers win. Dave [Pericak, chief engineer of the Mustang] signed a poster of a Boss 302 Laguna Seca for me, "Al, Best Wishes, Dave Pericak." You can see it if you walk by my office, and I've written below it, "Keep them in the rearview mirror because they will try to overtake."
