2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 vs 2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8: Track Comparison (Motor Trend)

2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 vs 2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8: Track Comparison (Motor Trend)

Forget Mustang vs Camaro. Ford's Shelby GT500 is ready to challenge Chevrolet’s flagship C8.

Mustang vs. Corvette? Go ahead, pinch your thumb and index finger to the bridge of your nose, squint your eyes, and blink hard. When you look again, the words on the page won't have changed.

Rarely has Motor Trend conducted (or concocted) such a bold comparison. But it's a mad, mad new world we're in now. Forget the Blue Oval's sacrosanct rivalry with Camaro, which had always left the Corvette to chase the elusive, pricier Porsche 911.

Oh sure, the base pony car models will still compete, same as always. But the top-end Mustang GT500 is so excellent it deserves higher-octane competition. The final piece of evidence: The Mustang Shelby GT500 costs more than Chevrolet's new mid-engine Corvette supercar when similarly equipped. Game on.
