I would guess the Vette has an older demographic and in GENERAL terms, the older driver is a safer driver.

But you I would think that would be negated by the fact that there are only a fraction of Machs on the road compared to vettes. Either way that is pretty interesting there.

i dont think it has to do as much with the number of mach as it does the number of mustangs in general and the age of drivers

im sure there are alot more teens wrecking V6's and GT's which really hurt the insurance for the even faster versions, i know my insurance wouldnt write me in a 03/04 cobra or a new GT500

im surprised they wrote me in the "Z06" but a clean record helps alot

id trade in the mach for a ZO6 anyday. good choice. much better car. performance wise, not to keen on the interior design of C5's but great car nonetheless.

the interior doesnt bother me to to much, could be alot better, but im getting the seats re-covered and some other red/black leather rim pieces to help it look better

its the seats that i just dont care for in the C5

Nice ride. Im about to do the same thing and buy an '02 white Z06 but, still keep the mach.

Mach1 EH · 01-31-2007, 02:54 PM

Nice trade indeed.
I was in a 2003 Z06 for the weekend at the Woodward Avenue Dream Cruise.
MAN oh man, what a car.
I was seriously considering doing a trade but I do love my Mach.
I have considered and have mentioned selling my Mach, but I cannot do it.

The Z is an AWESOME car. What a car, you did one hell of an upgrade.
But I am stupid when it comes to Mustangs I currently have two.
I do like the Z
