Exactly the same?
Different front bumper, front splitters, front fenders, side skirts, rear fenders, rear bumper, tail lights, emblems... yup. Exactly the same.

I found that comment amusing considering the Mustang crowd is absolutely the worst about cars looking similar with so many Stangers running the same body mods and wheels. lmao.

These should be your new favorite wheel! Drag oriented, black mesh, and no rivets!

Those don't look bad at all. I kinda like them. I don't have a problem with black centered wheels, it's the wheels that are all blacked out including the hoops to where it takes all the detail away and you can't see what kind of wheel it is. In pictures the car just looks like it's sitting on some black void. Just looks silly in my opinion. But each to their own. As for the assembly bolts I've never been wild about them either, but they have grown on me with my wheels. I really hate them when I have to clean them on occasion cuz it hurts my fingers like a mofo!

LOL. I love how you bolded the "assembly bolts".
The wheels aren't that bad. I like the new S75B style though. It looks like the old mag wheels from the original Machs and Camaros from back in the day.

Vipers sound like UPS trucks.
These new 5.0's sound like boats burbling in the water at idle. I really wish my car sounded like the wife's Mach. Can't stand the way these 5.0's sound.

Yes like I said a car guy will know the difference. 90% of the people you meet will not.

Your mom doesnt know what a dump truck sounds like. A Mustang sounds zero like a Viper (or UPS/ dump truck). Heh

True but, still that same 90% won't know the difference between a 5.0 and a base Mustang or even a GT500.
With the ZO6 you get different everything except roof panel, mirrors, doors and trunk. Everything else is completely different. It's a Corvette so it does have to look like... *gasp* a Corvette. What are people expecting the ZO6 to look like? Not a Corvette?

Finally, you made a point I agree with that doesn't make me smack my forehead so hard I almost KO myself.
It's silly to expect non-car people to know the difference from one model to another. Most of the general public still believe silly shit like a stock Lambo or Veyron are the fastest cars on the road too not having a clue how many 1200hp+ cars are running around these days. lol

Much like a conversation I had with a certain yellow viper owner:
"If we pass a cop mid pull I can just pull into a mall parking lot. You can't."
