Buy/have a 90's 5.0 Mustang or C5 Corvette. And why?

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

I ask because there's a pretty big 5.0 following where I'm at. But I don't really understand why. I'd way rather have a C5.

A C5 and I'm a former Mustang owner and somebody who leans toward the blue oval. While both can be made to perform I just think the starting point is higher in the C5. And I like the looks?

I'd take the Fox. Corvettes are too common and most people don't even notice the difference between C5 and 6. The FB Mustang is underrated, unless you're at a strip. I think it would be a fun car to make fast.

I understand that. Good to be different. I see more fox bodies than C5s here though

I'm confused how this is an actual question. The only things I can see the Mustang having going for it are the back seats and a lower cost of entry. The C5 will outperform the Fox in every conceivable way.

That said, to answer your question, I'll take the C5.

C5. Because mustang. Arguably worst mustang ever (in stock form). These two don't even compete against each other. It's like asking would you rather have this 458 or 500L?
