It may not be the fastest, but fot the little $ it cost for 500 hp it's very reasonable as long as you don't go to a Fucking rip off dealer. The engineers at Ford left so much on the table. Lt's alone are worth 60rwhp alone. Chuck that POS Eaton and slap a KB or some Turbos and you're talkin some serious power. A modded Shelby will crush a 7l Z06 and for a lot less $ than the Vette. Yeah I know mod the z06 blah,blah,blah,blah Now you're talking a 6 figure Chebby.
How much are you guys jacking the price of the Shelbys up at Varsity? I told a salesman at Milne that if they wouldn't give me A plan, I wouldn't pay a dime over sticker. He chuckled, and I walked to my car and drove away.
Personally I don't feel safe at all in the Vette. Like I said before, it feels like a cardboard coffin on wheels.

There are true statements in what you say about cost/performance for some people, but the Z06 has been the best value for the overall package for some time now.
Regarding comparing anything modded to anything stock, that is a moot discussion
Coffin on wheels? I've spent quite some time in a C5 convertible and I never once felt vulnerable or unsafe
