Sparky Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 The white stripes look so tacky to me. Gotta go with the light color with matte black stripes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye1647545503 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....... Not feeling that paint scheme. To me the ONLY way to buy a boss is grabber orange with black stripes (or gray strips on the Parnelli Jones model) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me the ONLY way to buy a boss is grabber orange with black stripes (or gray strips on the Parnelli Jones model) I didn't think I'd like it either, but staring at it all day, I love it. It's completely different from what's out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirks5oh Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Then again, a few $$$$ at Griggs and a Boss/GT/whatever Mustang will EAT a Z06 on the track unless you are talking more 1/4-mile. u serious bro? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 Sweet Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 +1 gotta say that's the worst color combination on a car i've seen yet. dark blue, white stripe, black wheels? no thanks Agreed. Looks awful IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kohones Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I sell & finance FORDS! The Boss is a great car, but it is NOT a Z06. I've driven the Boss and I own a C6 Z06. No question if you're gonna struggle between the two / the Z06 is the ride - case closed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTPSS Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Personally I love the looks of a nicely dressed newer Mustang much better than the Vette, and I am GM all the way....But there really isn't a comparison overall. My thought=Vette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got-Boost? Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Not even close. Go do some research... +1 gotta say that's the worst color combination on a car i've seen yet. dark blue, white stripe, black wheels? no thanks I don't think its bad in person, my coworker has that combo... u serious bro? Yes,....not really a cost factor since he's looking at used Z's to a new BOSS. But a Griggs setup Mustang will flat move around corners.... If he was more concerned about cost, I would say a used 5.0 with Griggs suspension but he's not primarily tracking it so the Z06 would be the better buy. If he needs more seats for family fun and use, the BOSS may be what he wants. If he's single/gf only then the Z06 may be what he wants if he's just cruising, DD or the once in a while 1/4-mile run. Still don't know what the main use of the car will be... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POS VETT Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Whether it's white, black, or red stripes on kona blue, competition orange, yellow blaze, race red, black, or ingot silver (as far as 2012 MY is concerned), the combination can be changed pretty painlessly. The stripes are sticker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still don't know what the main use of the car will be... Looking to get something fun and they're both about the same price. Can get a brand new Boss for low $40's or a 20-30k mi Z06 for the same price. I know the Boss will depreciate a lot faster initially but looking to buy the right car to keep for a while. Went to look at that Z06 today and it has been wrecked so that would not be the one. The car is going to be a track day ride and for some cruising. Thoughts? Andy, really? Z06... Really. What else can you buy stock and have this much power and ability to track? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverAudiMike Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I'm saying Z06 all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got-Boost? Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Really. What else can you buy stock and have this much power and ability to track? Yes,.....drag, roadcourse, auto-x, which? There are many types of track days....and if he means road course then I hope he's paying cash. Nothing worse then stuffing a car into the wall and the track insurance not covering it...

kirks5oh Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Yes,.....drag, roadcourse, auto-x, which? . Doesn't matter which. Stock for stock---mod for mod, not much can come close to the z-06. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got-Boost? Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Doesn't matter which. Stock for stock---mod for mod, not much can come close to the z-06. You are correct but not necessarily dollar for dollar. Why else do people buy Mustangs, they are typically cheaper in all those categories...

kirks5oh Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 You are correct but not necessarily dollar for dollar. Why else do people buy Mustangs, they are typically cheaper in all those categories... Trust me, the margin is getting closer than you think. The cost to throw a procharger on my vette is nearly identical to that of a mustang. Longtubes on a mustang used to be $500-ish. Now, for a good set, you're at $1100.

Got-Boost? Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I'll agree costs are going up. I'm just saying if you wanted to go 9's starting with a brand NEW vehicle, you'll have less money in the Stang than a Z06... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 The car may make it to Trails but by track I mean mainly auto-x and mid-ohio days. I think the hunt has been put on hold for a bit. Inventory has dried up like crazy in the past month and a half. May have to wait till late summer/fall now. TT sold just a bit too late.
