And wik.haider, totally get where you're coming from. I was actually a diehard mustang guy until the 6th gen dropped. Love at first sight and never looked back since.
Then he might have to add another line item to his comparison list. Insurance.

When I bought my car I started with the idea that I would get a V8 convertible. That narrowed it down to Camaro SS, Camaro ZL1, Corvette Grand Sport. I wasn’t willing to spend what I would have had to spend to get a Z06. Highest insurance rate? ZL1 convertible by a lot. Almost double the SS. The issue was 455 hp (SS) vs 460 hp (GS) vs 650 hp (ZL1). This was checking with multiple insurance companies.
