Yea, I guess the Z06 can't possibly go fast at all. It only pulls 1.22 lateral Gs, has a top speed of 190+, and a near-perfect 50:50 weight distribution. The body was specifically designed for high-speed stability and cornering capability.
The Z06 also costs substantially more.
The Shelby Mustang is a great car, it really is, but I think there are better cars out there in that price range. It all depends on what you're looking for. Of course there are TONS of parts available for Mustangs, and it will certainly grab the attention of the opposite sex, but it's very heavy and wouldn't be as fun to toss around as a smaller sports car. If you like drag racing it fits the bill though.
If it were me, I'd go after a supercharged Lotus. Slightly slower straight speed and fairly slow top speed due to drag, but tell me when you really need to go over 140 and I'll eat my hat. Also, you get insane handling that is only matched by the Z06 for a smaller price tag. They aren't the most comfortable cars though.
