You assume the top Mustang would be knocking on Z06 territory with nothing to support that claim. The new Mustang's MRSP went up very little even though it is an all new chassis and with an updated engine line up. There is no reason why a halo Mustang would suddenly be $15k more than the GT500.
I think you are basing your P/W ratio on estimates of weight and not final numbers. According to the order guide, the 1LZ M6 Z06 is 3298 lbs which is slightly less than the old ZR1 (http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2015-...6-order-guide/).

Of course, that could be wrong, too, but the point is we really don't know what the P/W ratio is.
