It's a debate that never ends. Well, GM dropped the F-body, and a C6 will cost you twice what a Mustang will, but you will get 500hp in the Corvette. But the Mustang will have a back seat, and cost less to insure. Since the Camaro and Firebird are dead, I feel the issue is dead, too. No more Camaro-Mustang rivalry. Mustang outlived the Camaro. The loyal Ford oners, and Chevy converts, have spoken with their wallets and the F body is gone.
So let's argue Corvette vs. Viper, since Ford doesn't have the new Cobra ready yet, and if they did you would be waiting a year or two to get one, unless you wanted to pay through the nose, like those guys driving new V8 GT's.
ps: for the record; I have an old Camaro, from back in the day when looking under the hood meant you actually were able to do something under there.
