For that money I'd buy a used C6 z06/C7. Unless I had a real need for a back seat.

Lmao. Nothing wrong with the power but dude, I sat in a stang the other day and that interior is put to shame by the c6.
My take is that is you're willing to shell out $65k for a mustang with a shit interior, then you're probably willing to shell out $67 for a mustang with a great interior.

The Corvette's interior is just a different shade of awful, unless you drop $10K on the upgrade, then it's just a little better than garbage.

This is a straightline muscle car vs. the Vette is an actual sportscar, but straightline I'm sure it would give Z06 more than a run for it's money, especially if you swap out better, wider rubber (which 650 hp is going to need). Just depends on what you are looking for. It's still a heavy car but they did take off over a 100 lbs off the front last year when they went to the aluminum block.

Given $55K-$60K not sure if I would get this or the Boss 302 Laguna Seca.

With the track pack this thing is going to surprise some people on the track.

I added the SVT track pack, SVT performance pack and Recaros for $63080 total price. Looks hot in Grabber Blue!

Still, I'm with everyone else that said that a C6 Z06 (lightly used) is probably much preferred overall. Lighter, more focused, proven drivetrain and easy to find.
