It would appear to this observer that Ford is leading the performance charge with a pickup truck and letting the Mustang duke it out with the Vette's little brother.

400+ HP Lightning straight from the factory in 2002 anybody?? :wink:

Ford doesn't have anything that can compete with the Corvette, much less the ZO6.

The Vette is a low-slung sports car, the Stang is a 2+2 coupe.

Even if Ford built a sportscar chassis, what engine would it run? Anything with an intercooler is going to blow apart and the 5.8 in the Cobra R just isn't enough.

The ZO6 is in a class by itself.

I think the project code name is "Petunia" and according to the source I read that car, which is based on the unbeatable GT-40 and also to be styled by Pininfarina will dominate Z06's and Vipers right off the show room floor.
