You missed my point entirely. This Z06 has a worse power to weight ratio than the ZR1 it is replacing.

...
but a MUCH better number than the car it replaced...
for EQUAL $$,$$$...
...and "ZR1" still remains available...and if you FULLY read the LT4 Story from
HRM, there's
MORE AVAILABLE-COMING...

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.

IF (that word) a Gen-6 Mustang GT500 was available, it would Base @ $60K, at a minimum.
NOW, things like Multimatics, and/or MRC, and something better than
Pep Boys tires, and C-C brakes EXIST. Add those to your hypothetical "$60K GT500", along with aluminum and/or c-f...and where are you?
You've just BLASTED through $70 and you're headed for $80...or MORE!
And remember, anything Ford does to the Stang, GM can do for the CAMARO...with an already-bought-and-paid-for ENGINE! Or, the ones
HRM alluded to...you know, those engines that Powertrain was ACTUALLY working on while you were whining about GM's "engine upgrade failures"...
