That's all you see is a 12 second 1/4 mile. Someday, you'll learn. I've had daily driven 10 second mustangs and quite honestly, it's not all about 1/4 mile. If it were, I'd be driving a Tesla.

You're modded ZL1 will destroy my modded GT? WTF lol. It's funny, I'm not threatened by a ZL1 either....because I don't street race. It seems like you have a bit of a complex going on....you do realize you can't always be the fastest don't you?

You guys with the R, even if it remains at MSRP, which it won't, right off the bat you lost whatever you paid in ADM which in some cases is over $20K. My ZL1 would have to depreciate to around $40K to match that kind of loss, lol!!

Come back to me in 2 years when the ZL1 1LE hit the used market and let me know about your loss. The more you pay, the harder you'll fall. The rare exception are those limited edition cars that hold their values. The 93 cobra R, 95 cobra R, 2000 cobra R, Terminator Cobras and Boss 302 all hold their values extremely well. The GT350 will most likely do the same. Just because a newer car is faster does not diminish the value of these cars (cars "soul" plays a factor here).

They buy shit because they can. You are the one that seems to think if a car doesn't go down the 1/4 mile faster than another that it's value is garbage. You just don't understand yet the value that cars offer outside of 1/4 mile performance.
